LVR CPR Training Courses Canberra

Low voltage rescue prepares you to perform rescue from a live low voltage panel and provide immediate care until professional medical help arrives. Because an electric shock can lead to cardiac arrest, LVR is commonly paired with cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) so you can act straight after the rescue.

Electrician, apprentice, solar tech or safety officer? This Canberra guide helps you choose the right LVR training course option fast - then book a venue and date that suit your roster. If your ticket has lapsed, don’t stress - we’ll help you get back on site quickly and safely.

Learn essential low-voltage rescue skills with an Allens Training LVR training course. Allens Training has been delivering high-quality live low-voltage rescue training across Australia since 2003. Last year alone, we issued over 29,000 LVR certificates.

Canberra LVR Training FAQs

Can I do LVR online?

Yes—choose LVR & CPR or First Aid & LVR if you need the cardiopulmonary resuscitation course content in the same booking.

Make the area safe, follow DRSABCD, call emergency services, and begin basic life support steps including CPR if required. Your course rehearses this flow so you can respond effectively at the incident scene.

Yes. Expect a brief written assessment alongside your practical drills. Trainers keep it clear, job-focused and aligned to site expectations.
