Frequently Asked Questions

What are the prerequisites for the Express CPR Course?
The Express CPR Course is designed specifically for individuals with previous CPR training experience. While there are no formal prerequisites, this assessment-only format assumes you have existing CPR knowledge and skills. If you’re new to CPR, we recommend our standard HLTAID009 course instead of the express format.
Do I need previous CPR training to enrol in the Express CPR Course?
Yes, the Express CPR Course is a refresher format designed for those with previous CPR training. This streamlined assessment-only option is perfect for annual renewals but requires existing CPR knowledge to successfully complete the practical assessment.
Can I take the Express CPR Course as my first CPR certification?
No, the Express CPR Course is not suitable as your first CPR certification. This express format is assessment-only and designed for renewals. First-time learners should enrol in our standard HLTAID009 course which includes comprehensive instruction and practice time.
Is the Express CPR Course available online or only face-to-face?
The Express CPR Course is delivered as a blended format. You complete the theory component online at your own pace, then attend a face-to-face assessment session. We also offer 100% online options via Zoom for those who cannot attend in person.
How is the Express CPR Course delivered - online, in-person, or blended?
Our Express CPR Course is primarily delivered as a blended course combining online theory with a 1-hour in-person assessment. You can also choose from traditional face-to-face, fully online via Zoom, or standard blended options to suit your learning preferences.
Can I complete the Express CPR Course theory online before attending?
Yes! The Express CPR Course requires you to complete all theoretical components online before attending your 1-hour assessment session. This pre-learning ensures the face-to-face component focuses solely on practical skill demonstration.
Do childcare workers need the Express CPR Course for ACECQA compliance?

Yes, childcare workers can use the Express CPR Course (HLTAID009) to meet ACECQA CPR requirements. This certification is nationally recognised and accepted for education and care settings. Note that our HLTAID012 course includes CPR, so this course may be more suitable.

What's the difference between the HLTAID009 express CPR course and a HLTAID011 first aid course?
The Express CPR Course focuses solely on refreshing your CPR and resuscitation skills, while full first aid courses like HLTAID011 include comprehensive first aid training as well as CPR. Our express CPR training format is also assessment-only, versus full instruction that you receive in the face-to-face options.
