Emergeny First Response Instructor |
The EFR Instructor Course teaches
you how to organise and teach the EFR and Care for
Children Courses. During the course you will get to
practise role model skill demonstrations on Primary
Assessment, One Rescuer CPR and Automated External
Defibrillator (AED).
A benefit to being able to teach
the EFR Course is that any student taking the Rescue
Diver Course with you can also complete the EFR Course,
which is a prerequisite, also with you.
Note: you must be certified as an Emergency
First Response Instructor before you can be certified
as a PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor.
To enroll in an Emergency First Response Instructor
Course, an individual must:

procedures.

Emergency First Response program philosophy and prepare
them to teach courses that are low-stress, performance-based
and learner-centered.
• Refine instructor candidates’ primary

to a role-model level.
• Provide instructor candidates with practical
suggestions for organizing and marketing their Emergency
First Response courses.
