How Much Does It Cost To Do A CPR Course
Table of Contents
One of the first things people want to know about CPR training is the CPR course cost and what you get for your money. The short answer is that HLTAID009 Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation is one of the most affordable nationally accredited training courses available, with the practical skills and knowledge you gain far outweighing the modest investment.
CPR Course Cost
Our HLTAID009 Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation course is priced at $39. The CPR course cost includes everything you need to complete your training and receive your nationally recognised certification, with no hidden fees or surprise charges at booking or on the day.
What's Included in the CPR Course Cost
The CPR course cost includes face-to-face training with a qualified trainer, practical experience using automated external defibrillators (AED), and all training equipment. You do not need to purchase or bring anything separately. The price also covers access to online learning materials and pre-course readings.
Your practical assessment is included in the course fee and there are no additional charges to sit the assessment or to have your certificate issued. When you complete the HLTAID009 course, you receive a nationally recognised Statement of Attainment that confirms you have demonstrated competence in the unit, and employers and regulatory bodies accept it across Australia.
Refresher CPR Training
The CPR course cost for a refresher is the same as your first HLTAID009 Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation course because the training and assessment requirements are identical, bar any updates to best practise and guidelines. The goal of a fresher course is to keep your CPR techniques ready so you can act when faced with real emergency situations, and so the course contents, and the CPR course cost, remains the same.

The ability to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation puts you in a position to act when someone suffers a cardiac arrest and every second counts. Our registered training organisation (RTO) has training locations Australia wide, and at $39, the CPR course cost is small compared to the value of gaining practical first aid skills and knowledge that could help save a life.
FAQs
Can I Get My CPR Certification Online?
No, you cannot receive an accredited CPR certificate through a fully online course because the HLTAID009 unit requires you to physically demonstrate CPR on a manikin under trainer observation.
How Long Is My CPR Certificate Valid?
Your Statement of Attainment does not have an official expiry date, but the Australian Resuscitation Council recommends completing a CPR refresher course every 12 months to maintain current skills. Most employers iwho require first aid qualifications will consider your CPR certification out of date if it has been more than 12 months since your last training.
Do I Need CPR Training If I Already Have a First Aid Certificate?
Your first aid certificate includes the HLTAID009 CPR unit, so you do not need separate CPR training at the time of completion. However, your CPR skills should be refreshed annually while your broader first aid qualification remains valid for three years, which means you will need to complete standalone CPR courses between your full first aid renewals.
