Hybrid Classes: Failure To Complete the Online Portion of the Training

Applicable to ALL Hybrid Classes:

You must complete your online training before attending your in-person skills assessment. All videos in your portal must be viewed, showing a 100% completion in our system.

If you attend a class without completing the online training, you will not be permitted to stay in the class and will be asked to leave. This is a requirement of the HYBRID CLASSES.

If the online portion of the training is incomplete before class, you will be required to reschedule your skills assessment and are subject to a rebooking fee of $25.00 plus HST (if less than 48 hours advance notice is given).

If you cannot complete the online portion of the training before the class date but provide 48 hours’ notice, we will waive the $25.00 plus HST rescheduling fee.

Life Start Training Inc. reserves the right to waive this fee for extenuating circumstances subject to approval. Proof of extenuating circumstances may be required.


No Shows, Late Shows, and Last-Minute Cancellations Policy

Booking an in-class training session reserves a seat that another person could have used. We work to schedule full classes to maximize instructor and training efficiency.

If you arrive late, missing instruction time, you may need to reschedule and attend the full class to be certified.

If you do not provide 48 hours’ notice to reschedule, rebooking fees are as follows:

  • Fully In-Person Classes (1 or 2 days): $25.00 plus HST
  • Hybrid Courses: $25.00 plus HST
  • Marine First Aid: $25.00 plus HST
  • Advanced Level Training Classes: $75.00 plus HST

If attendance was missed due to incomplete online portions, the charge is $25.00 plus HST.

If you reschedule more than twice, a third reschedule requires full payment for the course due to potential waitlists.


Time Limitations

The first aid course must be completed within six (6) months from the purchase date.

Life Start Training Inc. will consider extenuating circumstances on a case-by-case basis. It is the purchaser's responsibility to notify us if an extension is required beyond six months due to unforeseen challenges.

For all hybrid (blended) courses, participants are required to complete the online video portion and attend the in-person skills assessment within six (6) weeks from the start date of the online training.

Once the online videos have been started, this six-week timeframe will apply to ensure timely completion and certification. If you are unable to complete the videos and attend the in-person skills assessment within this period, you may be required to re-enroll in the course and pay applicable fees.

Course time limits, from the start of a hybrid course to certificate issuance, are governed by provincial requirements and CSA.

 


Refunds

We do not give refunds, if a refund is issued, it is for extenuating circumstances that has been approved by the owner, with a minimum of 48 hours before the scheduled skills class.

Refunds meeting the above criteria for extenuating circumstances are subject to a non-refundable admin and processing fee of $50.00 plus tax, except for:

  • Safe Tween and Babysitting Classes: $10.00 plus tax non-refundable fee.
  • Advanced Level Classes: 50% of course fees held as non-refundable.

No refunds for hybrid (blended) or virtual courses once started or activated.

Classes may be rescheduled with no penalty if 48 hours’ notice is given or less for inclement weather.

Life Start Training reserves the right to charge additional processing or admin fees.


Payment Terms

All payments must be finalized before your class starts. Instructors cannot process payments during class time.

For payment information, please reach out to your specific franchise location.

Credit Card Processing: We use Helcim for secure credit card payments. No Helcim account is needed for online payment.

Cheque or Purchase Orders (POs): Reserved for corporate/business associates with billing accounts.

Cash Orders: Cash payments are not accepted. Please choose e-transfer or Helcim credit card processing.

NOTE: No Refunds or Cancellations. Please review our full policy in "No Shows, Late Shows & Last-Minute Cancellations" and "Refunds."


Course Upgrades

Ensure the course selected meets the certification level required. Courses cannot be upgraded to a higher certification level after booking; rebooking and repayment for the correct course are required.

For example, CPR/AED Level C meets standards only for specific industries (e.g., nursing, dental hygiene) and not WorkSafe NB workplace standards. Workplaces like daycare facilities or long-term care may require Workplace Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C (hybrid or in-person), meeting New Brunswick Occupational Health and Safety Act requirements.
