3

CPR & defibrillator (BLS-AED)

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation and using an AED defibrillator — practised hands-on on training manikins.

4

Wounds, bleeding & shock

Stopping bleeding, dressing wounds and reacting correctly to shock or burns.

Frequently asked questions — first-aid course Embrach

I only want a motorbike licence in Embrach — do I still need the course?
Yes.

Nothing about the content changes either: it is the same course at Lagerstrasse 2, the same share of practical work and the same ASTRA recognition.
How far is Embrach from the venue?
About 18.5 km, roughly 21 minutes by car to Zürich (Lagerstrasse 2).
How much does the first-aid course cost?
A flat CHF 128, all-inclusive — covering all 10 course hours, the practice material and your certificate.
How long is the certificate valid?
The first-aid certificate is valid for 6 years. You must apply for your learner permit within that time.
Do I need the first-aid course for my licence?
Yes. A valid first-aid certificate is mandatory to apply for the learner permit for cars (cat. B) and motorcycles (cat. A) at any Swiss road-traffic office.
