hey guys,

i was just wondering, if one were to get their first aid's certificate, would one need to do perform life-to-life resuscitation with other students doing the course?

anyone here completed this before?

thanks,

No, you don't have to.  You do it on a dummy with a mask. (done two different certificates before)

On an aside, don't perform CPR on someone who has spontaneous blood circulation and breathing (ie. your colleagues in the course).
