    COQUITLAM TRAINING CENTRE

    First Aid & CPR Training in Coquitlam, BC

    Our Coquitlam campus at 914 Sherwood Avenue is Metro Safety's flagship training centre and has been the heart of our operations since 2008. Located minutes from Coquitlam Central SkyTrain, Lougheed Highway, and Highway 1, we deliver WorkSafeBC-approved Occupational First Aid, Canadian Red Cross CPR, Basic Life Support (BLS) for healthcare providers, forklift certification, fall protection and other workplace safety programs seven days a week. Thousands of Tri-Cities workers — from construction crews on the Evergreen Line to home-support nurses in Burke Mountain — earn or renew their tickets here every year. Whether you need Basic First Aid before a new construction start, an OFA Level 3 renewal (AFA-R) to keep a remote-site posting, or a full BLS certification for a healthcare rotation, the Coquitlam classroom, manikins, AED trainers and instructors are ready.

    Why Coquitlam employers choose our Sherwood Avenue campus

    Coquitlam is home to major construction, manufacturing and healthcare employers who need WorkSafeBC-compliant crews and can't wait weeks for a course spot. Our Sherwood Avenue centre runs weekday, weekend and evening classes so shift workers, apprentices and healthcare students can all find dates that fit. On-site amenities include multiple classrooms sized for private group bookings, an on-site instructor lounge for corporate trainers, free customer parking, quick access from Highway 1 (Exit 44 – Brunette / United), and coffee-shop-lined walkability along North Road. Employers running annual OFA 3 renewals for Ledcor, PCL, City of Coquitlam and other clients regularly book our largest room for full crews, and we can staff extra instructors when a company needs 30+ workers through in a single week.

    Courses offered daily from the Coquitlam campus

    The Coquitlam schedule is the deepest in our network. Every weekday you'll find Basic First Aid (OFA 1), Standard First Aid with CPR-C/AED, Emergency First Aid, and Canadian Red Cross CPR-C recertifications. Intermediate First Aid (OFA 2) and Advanced First Aid (OFA 3) run continuously — full-time (14 days) plus part-time evening/weekend cohorts for workers who can't step away from a job site for two weeks. Red Cross Basic Life Support (BLS) for healthcare providers runs multiple times per week, aligned with BCIT, Douglas College and JIBC intake schedules. Workplace safety tickets — Fall Protection, Confined Space Entry, Forklift, and Transportation Endorsement (TE) for OFA 3 holders — round out the calendar. See live dates on the Coquitlam course calendar linked at the top of this page.

    Easy to reach from anywhere in the Tri-Cities

    914 Sherwood Avenue sits just north of Lougheed Highway between North Road and Clarke Road, so students commuting from Port Moody, Port Coquitlam, Burnaby's Lougheed Town Centre and New Westminster's Sapperton neighbourhood all reach us in under 15 minutes. Coquitlam Central and Burquitlam SkyTrain stations are a short bus ride away on the 151 and 152 lines, and TransLink's Coquitlam Central bus loop connects riders from Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows via the 701. Drivers get free surface parking on-site plus overflow street parking on Sherwood and Regan. From out-of-town, take Highway 1 to Exit 44 (Brunette Avenue), north on Brunette to Lougheed, then east one block to Sherwood — the campus is on your left.

    In-house corporate training across the Tri-Cities

    In addition to public seats, our Coquitlam-based instructors travel across the Tri-Cities to deliver on-site training for employers who prefer to close a warehouse or field office for a day. We regularly deliver Fall Protection at construction sites in Burke Mountain and Westwood Plateau, Forklift certifications inside Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam distribution facilities, Confined Space training at industrial sites along the Fraser and Pitt rivers, and Standard First Aid renewals at municipal yards and school district facilities. If your team is spread across offices in Coquitlam, Port Moody and Port Coquitlam, we can build a rolling schedule that keeps every worker current on WorkSafeBC-required certifications without pulling multiple crews off-site at once.

    WHAT COQUITLAM CUSTOMERS SAY

    "Booked our whole framing crew for OFA Level 1 the week before a new build. Metro Safety fit us in on a Saturday and every worker walked out with a ticket. That's the only reason we hit our WorkSafeBC start date."

    Priya S.

    Site Supervisor · Coquitlam

    "Took Red Cross BLS on my way to a BCIT clinical rotation. The instructor was patient with the AED drills and I passed on the first try. Ten-minute bus ride from Coquitlam Central."

    James M.

    Care Aide Student · Port Moody

    "We renew Standard First Aid for our municipal maintenance staff here every year. Consistent instructors, straightforward invoicing, and the Sherwood location is easy for our crews to reach."

    Dana R.
