First Aid Courses in Mississauga: A Local Guide
WSIB-approved first aid and CPR for Mississauga and Peel Region.
Life Safe’s nearest venues to Mississauga are in Toronto, including downtown at 222 Spadina Ave (Spadina and Dundas), reachable by car, GO Transit, or TTC. Courses are WSIB-approved — Standard First Aid + CPR ($120), Emergency First Aid + CPR ($85), CPR C AED ($35), BLS ($55), and recertifications.

Where to train near Mississauga
Life Safe’s closest fixed venues to Mississauga are in Toronto. The downtown location at 222 Spadina Ave Unit 231, at the Spadina and Dundas intersection, is reachable from Mississauga by car via the QEW or Gardiner, or by GO Transit to Union Station with a quick TTC streetcar connection (the 510 Spadina or 505 Dundas). See the downtown Toronto local guide for full venue details, and the Toronto courses page for the schedule.
The venues offer real CPR manikins, AED trainers, wound-care supplies, and small class sizes so everyone gets hands-on time.
On-site training for Mississauga workplaces
Mississauga is full of corporate offices, warehouses, and businesses near Pearson Airport and along the 401, 403, and 407 — and for many of them, the simplest path to certification is having Life Safe come to them. On-site group training certifies your whole team at your Mississauga workplace, on your schedule, with the same content and WSIB-approved certification as in-class training.

Which course should you take?
The right course depends on why you need it.
| You’re taking it because… | Take this course | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Your workplace has 6+ workers per shift | Standard First Aid + CPR C AED | ~14 hours over 2 days |
| Your workplace has 1–5 workers per shift | Emergency First Aid + CPR C AED | 1 day (~7 hrs) |
| You’re a new parent or community member | CPR C AED (or the Free CPR class) | ~4 hours |
| You’re a nurse, paramedic, or healthcare student | BLS (Basic Life Support) | ~5 hours |
| You’re renewing an unexpired card | Recertification (SFA or BLS) | 4–8 hours |
If you’re unsure, Standard First Aid + CPR is the safest choice — it meets almost any Ontario workplace requirement. For a full breakdown, see Standard vs. Emergency First Aid.
