Most expats working in Bangkok have never touched a defibrillator and have no idea what Thai labor law requires their employer to provide. Bangkok First Aid fills that gap directly. The AHA certification carries weight internationally, which matters for those whose careers move across borders. Saturday is closed, so corporate HR scheduling this for a full office needs to plan around a Monday-to-Friday window.
The half-day American Heart Association CPR AED course is the entry point for most first-time attendees, priced at 2,990 baht per person. You spend roughly four hours in a classroom on the 9th floor of RSU Tower working through recognition of cardiac arrest, the chain of survival sequence, and then hands-on compression cycles on a training mannequin. The AHA curriculum runs at a 30:2 compression-to-ventilation ratio, and participants cycle through multiple practice rounds until technique is consistent before moving to the AED trainer. With the AED unit, you practice placing pads on a torso mannequin, delivering a simulated shock, and resuming compressions without a gap longer than ten seconds. By the end of the session each participant has logged enough practice repetitions that muscle memory begins to form, which is the actual goal of the certification. Completion earns an internationally recognized AHA card.\n\nThe course catalog extends well beyond CPR. The one-day Pediatric First Aid CPR AED course addresses infant and child emergencies specifically. The two-day Wilderness First Aid program covers scenarios where ambulance response is not an option. A Sports Emergency Response course targets coaches and athletic staff. Fire Safety Training and a three-day Pool Lifeguard certification round out the portfolio.\n\nFor companies, Bangkok First Aid offers a free professional compliance audit alongside corporate bookings. Trainers travel to the client site anywhere in Thailand, which removes the logistical barrier of pulling an entire team off-site for a weekday course. The corporate track is relevant for HR teams at international schools, hotel groups, construction firms, and any workplace with statutory safety obligations under Thai labor regulations.\n\nAn online CPR AED e-learning option is available in English at 450 baht, discounted from 675 baht. For those who need a documented certification quickly and cannot attend in person, it functions as a practical starting point, though it does not replace hands-on mannequin time for actual skill retention.
