How we teach
They’re counting on you.
It could be your child, a coworker, or a stranger. When they need help, you want to know where to start, even when the situation doesn’t look like the textbook.
Our paramedics and firefighters have been there. We teach a clear foundation, explain why the basics save lives, and bring real experience to the moments a checklist can’t fully describe. Through realistic scenarios, repetition, and direct feedback, you build the understanding to put your training into action.
Recognize when help is needed
Connect the textbook to the person in front of you. Practise spotting the signs of an emergency and identifying what needs your attention first.
Know your next move
Understand the reason behind each step. Practise making decisions and calling for help so you have a place to start when the situation feels uncertain.
Put your skills to work
Perform the skills yourself, receive clear feedback, and practise again. Build good habits and confidence through what you can do.
Be ready to help
Bring your skills together in realistic scenarios. Communicate, share a plan, and understand your role so you can work together and provide care within your training.
Real paramedics. Real firefighters. Experience you can learn from.
Students practise patient care, communicate their next steps, and work from a shared plan, with clear feedback that helps them understand why each step matters.
Find your training path
Start with first aid. Build toward response.
From CPR and workplace First Aid to Advanced First Aid and Emergency Medical Responder training.
- First Aid, CPR and AED The workplace certificates most employers ask for.
- Professional Responder First Responder, Advanced First Aid and EMR.
- BLS, Airway and Oxygen Health care provider level CPR, and the certificates that tie to it.
- Child Care and Youth Babysitting through to the daycare-level courses.
- Bridges and Recertifications Move to a different certificate, or renew the one you hold.
- Onsite and Private Groups Your crew, your site, a date that suits your roster.
On-site training

WE CREATE PROFESSIONALS.
Learn from people who have been there.
Learn from Advanced Care Paramedics, working firefighters, and real healthcare professionals.
There’s a person behind every skill you learn.
That’s Kumari helping students practise spinal packaging. She gives feedback on how they move her, explain their care, and respond to her concerns.
Care they can feel. Help they can trust.
Real patients ask questions, feel afraid, and need to be heard. We teach students to speak clearly and respond to the person in front of them. With practice and feedback, they bring communication and clinical skills together to provide care with competence, confidence, and compassion.

Kumari · Emergency Medical Responder
Stephen · Metro Fire Department Firefighter
Nickie · Advanced Care Paramedic

Your patient needs skilled care and a person they can trust. We teach you to provide both.

Not an easy course but he really did an amazing job at helping you retain and practice the information and made me feel confident and prepared for real life situations
It's a great course and very easy to learn from, the instructors are great and have a bunch of real experience in the emergency service world.
… emergency support training. Every instructor has field experience. So not only are you getting textbook information, you're also getting real world scenarios that they've seen first hand and they somehow make first aid fun.
… help you succeed. This team of educators are patient, encouraging, friendly and supportive. This was the
Questions people actually ask
Which course do I need?
Start with the exact requirement provided by your employer, school, regulator, or department. Course names can sound similar while meeting different requirements. Use our course finder or send us the wording you were given, and we will help you compare it before you register.
Will my certificate be accepted for work, school, or OHS requirements?
You receive the applicable Canadian Red Cross certification when you successfully complete an eligible course. Your course follows the Red Cross program standards and your certificate is issued by the Canadian Red Cross. Whether a specific employer, school, regulator or standard accepts it is their call, not ours, so send us the exact wording you were given and we will read it with you before you register.
Do I need previous medical or first-aid experience?
No previous medical experience is required for most First Aid and CPR courses. Advanced and Professional Responder programs may have prerequisites, which are listed clearly on each course page.
Where are your public courses held?
In Calgary at 1550 5 St SW, Suite 300, and in Leduc at 4810 50 Ave, Suite 100, serving the greater Edmonton region.
Is private onsite training available?
Yes. Private onsite training is available across Alberta, with delivery elsewhere in Canada available by request. Contact Delta with your location, group size, required course, and preferred dates.
Is first aid training physically demanding?
Yes, honestly. Expect hands-on practice: CPR on manikins, kneeling, bending, moving around the room, bandaging and scenario work. Tell us in advance about anything that affects how you take part and we will plan for it.
When do I receive my certificate?
After successful course completion. Most eligible Canadian Red Cross certificates are processed digitally within 72 hours after the course is complete.
Is AED training included with first aid and CPR?
Yes. AED training is included in Canadian Red Cross first aid and CPR courses where applicable, not sold as an add-on.
Do students practise mouth-to-mouth in class?
No. There is no direct mouth-to-mouth contact between students in class. Ventilation skills are practised on manikins with barrier devices, and in most courses the pocket mask you train with is brand new and goes home with you.
Are you affiliated with Delta Air Lines?
No. Delta Emergency Support Training is a Canadian medical training company and is not affiliated with Delta Air Lines.
