Is your CPR certification about to expire, or have you never learned the life-saving skill of cardiopulmonary resuscitation? This Wednesday, 22 July 2026, Yatson Training is hosting a practical, hands-on session for HLTAID009 Provide CPR right here in Albury / Wodonga.

At Yatson Training, we don't believe in dry, boring lectures. We know that when an emergency happens in your workplace or home, you need confidence and muscle memory, not just a piece of paper. That is why our courses are led by experienced professionals like Jackie Hislop, a Registered Nurse (RN) with years of clinical expertise.

Whether you are looking for Corporate First Aid training for your entire team or you are an individual needing a Workplace First Aid certification, we have a spot for you this week.

What is HLTAID009 Provide CPR all about?

HLTAID009 Provide CPR (the national standard for cardiopulmonary resuscitation training) is a focused unit of competency that teaches you how to recognize and manage a person who is unconscious and not breathing normally.

The primary function of this course is to provide you with the skills to maintain a victim's life until professional medical help arrives. It covers the DRSABCD action plan, which is the gold standard for emergency response in Australia. You will learn how to:

  • Perform chest compressions (the physical act of pumping the heart).
  • Provide rescue breaths (delivering oxygen to the lungs).
  • Operate an Automated External Defibrillator or AED (a device that delivers an electric shock to restart the heart).
  • Communicate effectively with emergency services.

Why Learn CPR in Albury / Wodonga with Yatson Training?

Choosing the right trainer makes all the difference when it comes to life-saving skills. We pride ourselves on being the local experts for Learn CPR in Albury / Wodonga.

Expert Instruction from a Registered Nurse

Our lead trainer, Jackie Hislop, brings her real-world nursing experience into the classroom. This means you aren't just learning from a manual; you are learning from someone who has performed these procedures in high-pressure medical environments. This clinical background ensures that your training is accurate, up-to-date, and practical.

Hands-On and Interactive

Forget about sitting in a dark room watching outdated videos for hours. Our sessions are interactive and engaging. We use high-quality manikins and training equipment to ensure you get the physical practice required to feel confident. We exceed standard compliance requirements by focusing on the quality of the skill, not just the speed of the course.

Flexible for Businesses

If you are managing a team, we offer flexible Corporate First Aid training solutions. We can come to your workplace or host your team at our local facilities. Ensuring your staff holds a current Workplace First Aid certification is not just a compliance box to tick; it is a vital part of your duty of care to your employees.

The 12-Month Rule: Why You Must Refresh Annually

While most first aid certificates (like HLTAID011 Provide First Aid) are valid for three years, the CPR component (HLTAID009) must be refreshed every 12 months.

The Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) and Safe Work Australia recommend this annual refresher because CPR skills are "perishable." Without regular practice, it is easy to forget the correct depth of compressions or the timing of the cycles.

Our Wednesday course is the perfect opportunity to update your skills. If it has been a year since your last session, book your spot now at our Courses Page.

Keep in Mind: Our Recommendations

To get the most out of your training, follow these practical recommendations:

  • Wear Comfortable Clothing: You will be kneeling on the floor to practice compressions. Wear trousers and comfortable shoes.
  • Review the DRSABCD Plan: Take five minutes to look over the basic steps (Danger, Response, Send for help, Airway, Breathing, CPR, Defibrillation) before you arrive.
  • Ask Questions: If you are unsure about a technique (like the depth of compressions on an infant), ask Jackie! Our trainers love sharing their knowledge.
  • Check Your Workplace Requirements: Some roles, especially in childcare, may require the Childcare First Aid course HLTAID012. We offer those too! Check our Corporate First Aid page for more details.
