Such a great experience! Our instructor for the day, Ezequiel, was incredibly knowledgeable and thorough. He made sure every step was clearly explained, reinforcing key points so nothing was missed. I left the Fundamentals course with greater awareness, stronger critical-thinking skills, and the confidence to take preventative action or respond effectively in a critical situation. Loved the course, the building and the space used for the day.

Great course and very good and knowledgeable Instructor!
Our instructor Bivaik was amazing in transmitting us her knowledge, covering every detail, allowing plenty of time for questions and making sure everyone got sufficient hands on practice. Furthermore she was kind and patient, making sure we would have a pleasant experience, and she made an extra effort to assure we are all well prepared to attend to an emergency.
The classroom was well equipped providing all the necessary material for studying and practicing emergency scenarios including books, a projector screen, mannequins, first aid material, barriers, defibrillators, mats, and last but not least plenty of coffee and tea.
I would definitely recommend it for anyone looking for first aid and CPR training.
Thank you for your services!

Jone and Blake taught with real enthusiasm, making the class engaging and easy to follow. I loved that we got to practice first aid through realistic case scenarios. It made everything feel practical and easy to remember.
Both instructors were patient and approachable, always making sure everyone felt confident with the skills. The place was well set up, and the course was hands-on without feeling rushed. I left feeling prepared for real-life situations and would definitely recommend this course to anyone wanting to learn first aid in a supportive, interactive environment.

I recently completed my Safety First Aid training with Safety BC, taught by Jone, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Jone is an excellent instructor — clear, patient, and very knowledgeable. He explains every step in a simple, practical way that makes you feel confident and prepared for real-life situations.
The course was well-organized, hands-on, and full of useful examples. Jone made the class engaging from start to finish and made sure everyone understood the material before moving on. I left the training feeling much more capable and ready to handle emergencies safely and correctly.
I highly recommend Safety BC and especially Jone for anyone who needs professional, high-quality First Aid training.

I had an excellent experience at Fundemental First Aid! My instructor Ezequiel was fantastic! He taught with enthusiasm, was detailed with what we needed to know about our course, and kept us all engaged the entire time we were there. Blake Steinson was incredibly helpful with an issue I had before the course began, and I'm grateful for he (and his staff's) professionalism and kindness. Top notch experience all around! Thank you!

First time attending a Fundamental First Aid course and I highly recommend. Great location,(free parking!) Very knowledgeable and helpful instructor. I found the room quite hot and stuffy, and I wish there were snacks available 😅 but besides that I recommend this course! (Bring snacks, it's a long day of learning )

The course was fantastic--because of the teacher, the format, the clarity of the online portion, and the focus on the right stuff. Honestly, our instructor was exceptional, so knowledgeable, and a terrific speaker and storyteller. I loved her multi-leveled thinking of a critical situation, her ways of encouraging memory. I've taken these courses for over 40 years--sometimes instructors read off of slides (snore) and it was impossible to concentrate--but in this course, I learned in a way that totally engaged me, made me think of real life situations I've experienced, feel the importance of these skills and know how to retain them. I sure hope others take this course when it comes my turn to need the help of strangers.

I had a great experience taking my Intermediate First Aid Course at Fundamental First Aid. Located in an easy to find facility that is clean, organized, and functional, with easy parking.
Ezequiel is an excellent instructor! His pacing and communication is great, and he was able to keep the program focused and fun at the same time. I would highly recommend him as a first aid instructor!

I recently attended the Fundamental First Aid Course in Vancouver, and it was an excellent experience. The in-person Naloxone training was particularly valuable, and the instructor, Blake, was knowledgeable and supportive. I appreciated that they provided a Naloxone kit upon completion of the training, which adds a practical element to the course. Overall, I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to enhance their first aid skills, especially with Naloxone training.

My first aid training was an outstanding experience! The instructor went above and beyond in delivering the course. His teaching style was engaging and memorable, motivating me to apply what I learned in real life, rather than just treating it as another certification. I feel more confident and prepared thanks to his approach.

I highly recommend Fundamental for anyone looking to train in First Aid. The trainers bring exceptional experience and in-depth knowledge to the course. They not only have a thorough understanding of the material but also a deep familiarity with WorkSafeBC’s requirements. The learning experience is incredibly practical and hands-on, which makes all the difference.
As a first-time First Aid student, I left feeling confident and capable—like a pro! The trainers focus on real-world application, ensuring that you’re ready for any situation related to your level. The facility is very clean, and there is free coffee, which adds a nice touch to the overall experience.

My husband and I recently completed the Standard First Aid course with Fundamental First Aid and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! The course was well-structured, providing clear, practical knowledge that left both of us feeling confident and prepared to handle various emergency situations. The materials were easy to follow, and the hands-on practice was invaluable.
What stood out was the instructor. She was incredibly knowledgeable, and engaging, and made the entire learning process enjoyable. Her real-world experience and approachable teaching style made it easy to ask questions and feel supported throughout the course.
I highly recommend taking a course through Fundamental First Aid to anyone looking to gain practical first aid skills – you’ll leave feeling empowered and ready to assist in an emergency!

I completed my level 1 certification a couple days ago with Ezequiel as my instructor. There were just me and another student that day so the learning process was rather more direct and engaging in a chill manner. The classroom and equipments were new and neat. I would definitely come back if I ever need to renew it or pursue a higher level.

Kathy was a great instructor, she was very mindful of time, what we were taking in, and ensuring the practical portion was the dominant experience. There was no time to be bored but there was plenty of opportunity to go over things and ask questions if we were stuck or not understanding. This was the best first-aid course I have taken yet!

What a great experience. First day with Bivaik was incredible. She definitely has the gift of teaching, she was kind, patient and clear to make sure everybody was on board. Super fun to chat with, we learned a lot from her and it made our first day so pleasant. We had Blake for our intermediate class and that was equally good. What he is doing there is really great to see. Organization, great teaching and just a passion to help. Thank you!

I recently completed my First Aid Level 2 training with Fundamental First Aid, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From the moment I reached out to book the course, Blake Steinson, the owner, was incredibly helpful and accommodating. He made the booking process seamless and ensured all my questions were answered.
The course itself was a fantastic experience. Our instructor, Belinda, was outstanding. Her expertise, engaging teaching style, and genuine passion for first aid made the five-day course not only informative but also enjoyable. Belinda's ability to break down complex concepts into easily understandable parts and her hands-on approach ensured that everyone in the class was confident in their skills by the end of the course.
I highly recommend Fundamental First Aid to anyone looking to get certified. The combination of excellent customer service and top-notch instruction made this an invaluable and fun learning experience. Thank you, Blake and Belinda, for such a positive and enriching training!

Having never taken a first aid course I had no expectations other than I knew it would be fast paced with a lot to learn.
The day was lead by an enthusiastic and knowledgeable instructor, who gave great demonstrations and assisted when necessary. He was very informative and has a delightful personality.
The meeting room was clean, well organized and welcoming. All the equipment was in good working order. Parking was easy! I highly recommend.
