First aid & CPR training

2023

CPR In London teaches first aid and CPR in London, Ontario: Standard and Emergency First Aid with Level C CPR and AED, Basic Life Support for healthcare providers, and N95 mask fit testing. In 2023 the studio designed the things a course runs on: the cover and back of the manual each participant holds, the wallet card they leave with, and the business card.

  • Course manual cover & back
  • Certificate wallet cards, two versions
  • Business card

01Mark & colour

A red cross,
and an address.

The client’s mark is its web address: a rescuer and patient inside a red cross, ringed by two arcs, beside a condensed cprinlondon.ca with the “in” picked out in blush. We left the mark as it was, took three colours from it — first-aid red, blush and near-black — and gave each course a plain icon. Every piece starts there.

02Course manual

A cover that says
what the course is.

Each participant gets a printed manual; the studio designed its cover and back. The front carries the mark, the line “Learn CPR. An easy way to save a life.” and the three families of course. The back says what a class is like and what each course covers. Re-set here from the original files, without the third-party accreditation strip and contact details; where the originals used a stock photograph, the red cross from the mark stands in.

03Cards

Small enough for a wallet,
clear enough to check.

Participants leave with a card the size of a business card: the completed course ticked, the date, expiry and instructor number filled in. Two versions cover different courses. The business card uses the same band of red to set out the three services in a row.

The photographs in the original materials were stock images, not the client’s classes, and none is shown here: where the manual cover and back and the business card carried a photograph, the red cross and the symbol from the mark stand in. The manual cover and back and the cards are re-set for the web from the 2023 design files, keeping their content and structure; third-party accreditation marks, agency numbers, historic credential claims and the phone number and email are left out. The manual’s inside pages are a third party’s textbook and are not shown. The cprinlondon.ca logo appears as supplied in those files.
