EFR Instructor Course in the Philippines

CPR and First Aid are essential life skills—valuable for everyone, not just scuba divers. Our two-day Emergency First Response Instructor (EFRI) course is both informative and surprisingly fun. Designed to build on your existing skills as an Emergency Responder, this course focuses on developing your abilities to confidently teach and certify others in life-saving techniques.

Using a mix of eLearning, interactive classroom sessions, and practical teaching exercises, you’ll learn how to effectively deliver EFR courses in various learning environments. The curriculum emphasizes performance-based training and includes guidance on:

  • Structuring lessons and skill sessions

  • Motivating and evaluating students

  • Presenting course content clearly and confidently
  • Conducting hands-on practice and scenario-based training

Whether you’re looking to expand your professional toolkit or make a real difference, this course is a powerful step forward.

At Instructor Development Philippines, the EFR Instructor Course is fully integrated into our IDC program. It takes place after the 3-day IDC Prep, making it an ideal time for team building and providing a preview of the Instructor Development Course experience.

To complete your package, we also include the Emergency Oxygen Provider Specialty Instructor Course

Stand-Alone or Combined Options Available

Prefer to take the EFR Instructor Course separately? No problem! It can be completed independently or in combination with any scheduled IDC. Check our IDC schedule for upcoming EFRI course dates.

Everything was very well organised

Had the best time doing my IDC with my very experienced course directors Tim and B. They explained things very well, added humor to the course and was there for us around the clock before and during and after the IDC, especially B.  Learning from 2 course directors (and 2 master and staff instructors) was amazing. Got to learn different approaches, different techniques on how to do skills or explain theory.

If you have to do something, do it in style

What can I say? I was in the Philippines last month to do IDC. I'm Malagasy (Madagascar) which is good because I don't speak English, but I can assure you that after the course I was able to speak English thanks to the IDP staff, you are fantastic. The padi courses director are really professional and comprehensive. My adventure in the Philippines, if it was a dream, never woke me up. Many thanks to BE (Berlinda). Just for information we were 100% for the result. Do not hesitate to contact @ Instructor Development Philippines. Heart to you the team. Always quality.
