Two Years of Progress for a Safer Future

An Innovative Vision for Safety

Since its creation in 2012 by Alexandre Grenier, Académie Saint-Bernard has transformed its vision of first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training into an innovative model accessible to all. This transformation has been particularly marked since 2015, when the Academy adopted an online training format, enabling more people to access life-saving courses. By adapting to diverse learning needs, the Academy has succeeded in creating an environment where everyone can develop their safety and first aid skills.

Breaking down traditional barriers

Alexandre Grenier's initiative was motivated by a desire to make first aid and CPR training accessible to all, regardless of location or availability. Prior to the creation of the Académie Saint-Bernard, many people faced barriers to taking these essential courses. Whether due to geographical distance, busy work schedules or other personal commitments, access to quality training was often limited. To overcome these challenges, the Academy set up an online training platform, which saw the light of day in March 2019. This launch marked a significant turning point in the Academy's mission, enabling it to reach a wider audience while respecting learners' individual constraints.

Continuous growth and innovation

Since the launch of its online training program, the Académie Saint-Bernard has grown steadily, adapting to changes in the industry. Every year, the Academy offers new training courses and updates on first aid techniques, to ensure that its courses are at the cutting edge of the latest practices. This dedication to innovation and constant service improvement means that a growing number of participants are being trained, armed with the skills they need to respond effectively to emergencies. The Academy's fundamental objective remains unwavering: to save as many lives as possible and contribute to a safer future for all.

Learner-centered approach

Académie Saint-Bernard has adopted a learner-centered approach, which means that each training course is designed to meet the specific needs of participants. Thanks to the integration of digital technologies, the Academy is able to offer a variety of learning resources, such as videos, interactive quizzes and real-life case studies. These tools not only make vital first aid skills more accessible, but also adapt to different learning rhythms. For example, a participant can revisit a module as many times as necessary until he or she feels comfortable with the content, boosting his or her confidence and ability to act in an emergency.

Ongoing commitment to safety

Académie Saint-Bernard doesn't just offer training; it's also committed to raising quality standards in CPR and first aid training. By collaborating with healthcare experts and education professionals, the Academy ensures that its courses are based on internationally recognized evidence and practice. This commitment to high quality is essential to ensure that every participant acquires relevant and effective skills. By pursuing this mission, the Academy is actively contributing to building a future where safety and preparedness are priorities shared by all.

Positive impact on the community

Beyond simply providing training, the Académie Saint-Bernard plays a crucial role in raising public awareness of the importance of first aid skills. By offering free awareness sessions in schools, businesses and community events, it fosters a culture of safety and preparedness. These initiatives enable participants to acquire practical knowledge that they can apply in their daily lives, strengthening the community's resilience in the face of emergencies. Training people in these vital skills helps not only to save lives, but also to create a safer environment for all.
