SINCE 2013, CERT Academy has been a driving force in first aid and emergency response training (ERT) in Malaysia, equipping individuals and organisations with the skills and knowledge to respond effectively in critical situations.
Led by Master Trainer Chiew Oon Leong, the academy has trained over 400,000 individuals and 6,000 corporate organisations, transforming first aid education into an engaging, interactive and impactful experience.
Pioneering first aid and ERT
CERT Academy's commitment extends beyond traditional first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training by incorporating realistic mock drills with special effects makeup to create immersive scenarios and interactive activities with team-building elements such as active leadership, effective communication and collaboration.
The academy offers a comprehensive range of workplace safety programmes including OSH-Coordinator Training for occupational safety and health management, Firefighting and Emergency Response Training to prepare individuals for fire and other emergencies, Safety Team Building Training that enhances teamwork and safety awareness through interactive activities, and other various industry-specific safety training programmes.
This breadth of offerings positions CERT Academy as a one-stop solution for organisations seeking to cultivate a safe and prepared work environment. Recognising the crucial role of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in saving lives, the academy is also a trusted AED supplier.
Providing these life-saving devices to homes, workplaces and public spaces, contributes to better emergency preparedness nationwide. Its slogan “1 Home, 1 First Aider, 1 AED”, reflects the aspiration to make life-saving tools and training accessible to everyone.
The vital role of CPR and AEDs
As sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) remains a leading cause of unexpected deaths in the country, the need for CPR and AED training is more urgent than ever.
The stark reality is that every minute without CPR reduces the chance of survival by 10%, and without intervention, most victims do not survive beyond 10 minutes.
CERT Academy understands these statistics and is dedicated to changing them, believing that proper CPR and AED training can save thousands of lives each year, which is why the academy works tirelessly to empower individuals and communities with these essential skills.
The power of CPR and AEDs lies in their ability to restore vital functions as CPR maintains blood circulation, ensuring oxygen continues to reach the brain and organs, while an AED delivers an electric shock to restore a normal heart rhythm.
When used together within the first three to five minutes, CPR and AEDs can dramatically increase survival rates up to 75%
CERT Academy’s Basic Occupational First Aid, CPR and AED Training (BOFA) programme provides both public and corporate participants with these critical life-saving skills. The first aid training module used by CERT Academy complies with local authority regulations and is also internationally recognized for its guidelines and principles.
For corporate clients, the training is claimable with Human Resource Development Corporation (HRD Corp) and fully compliant with local safety guidelines and regulations.
