Singapore First Aid Training Centre's beginnings date back to the year 2000. It was founded by a local paramedic who had a very strong passion and interest in pre-hospital care.
Witnessing how people were stunned by their own paralyzing fears in emergency situations inspired him to share his knowledge and skills so that the everyday person can perform critical lifesaving interventions before the ambulance arrives.
The marked difference since the company's inception was to share first aid in a "street-smart" fashion, so that anyone can learn and apply first aid effectively.
Singapore First Aid Training Centre is powered by our passion to reach out to our people and teach them to help someone else in a medical emergency, especially their beloved family and friends.
Today, we train about 20,000 participants each year both from Singapore and around the globe.
