At First Class First Aid, we know that the ability to save a life is a powerful thing
We’re a local Canterbury business, started because we knew that first aid training could be better. Throughout our time in our industry, we’ve developed a unique approach to training by utilising distinct materials and tools to deliver engaging, entertaining, and informative courses in a comfortable environment for all learners.
This ultimately ensures that our learners are able to effectively retain critical, life-saving information and are better prepared to respond to emergencies at home and at work.

Our training standards
Our expert trainers are fully qualified, New Zealand Resuscitation Council (NZRC) registered and approved trainers. We don’t register NZQA unit standards, and in most cases, this is not a requirement.
As our trainers are all NZRC approved to teach first aid, they attend yearly instructor qualification assessments and participate in regular upskilling to ensure our students are taught to the most current and relevant standard.
Giving back to our community
We’re proud of the social good that we create in our local communities as an Upstream approved supplier. By donating a percentage of our income through Upstream, we support the wellbeing of children and young people across Canterbury with mentoring, youth-work, counselling subsidies, and support for children with disabilities.
