Program Overview

This first aid training module provides employees with a life-like experience to learn and practice basic first aid skills. You will have to react to a co-worker’s injury, gather supplies, perform stabilizing first aid, contact emergency services, and properly follow up after the aid is complete. You have two chances to correctly complete the virtual reality scenario and earn your first aid certificate.


This will be a pass-fail course; if you make mistakes during the evaluation, you will be provided the opportunity to correct your errors and continue with the evaluation, however mistakes will be tracked and making enough errors along the way will cause you to fail.
