What can PADI EFR Instructors do?

The Emergency First Response Instructor Course provides qualified individuals with the additional training necessary to teach the Emergency First Response Primary Care (CPR), Secondary Care (First Aid) and Care for Children courses.
Individuals who are current CPR/first aid instructors with another qualifying organization may choose to earn the Emergency First Response Instructor rating by completing a prescribed program based on portions of the Emergency First Response Instructor Course, the Emergency First Response Instructor Crossover Program. This program gives credit to their teaching experience and focuses on familiarizing them with the Emergency First Response program philosophy and structure.

Note: You don’t need to be a diver to attend this course!

Have completed the Emergency First Response Secondary Care (First Aid) course within the past 24 months
Have completed the Emergency First Response Care for Children course within the past 24 months.
- Practicing medical professionals (e.g. paramedics, EMTs, nurses, doctors) are not required to have completed the Emergency Fist Response Primary Care (CPR), Secondary Care (First Aid) and Care for Children courses. Although participating in these provider-level courses is beneficial, it isn’t required since professional medical training serves as an equivalent.
