Emergency Training

What Emergency Training does

notfallTraining schweiz GmbH is a Swiss emergency and first aid training provider founded in 2001 and headquartered in Niederbipp, Canton of Bern. The company delivers certified training courses and adjacent services to corporate clients, healthcare institutions, schools, professional drivers, pharmacists, and individual consumers across Switzerland. Its primary go-to-market is enterprise field sales with on-site corporate training, complemented by direct-to-consumer public courses held at the Niederbipp facility. Notable enterprise relationships include fenaco Genossenschaft and Solothurnische Gebäudeversicherung (both since 2013), Digitec Galaxus, Stahl Gerlafingen AG, and Volg Konsumwaren AG.

Core products include IVR-accredited First Aid courses (Levels 1–3 plus refreshers), SRC-certified BLS-AED-SRC programs (Kompakt, Komplett, Instructor), CZV courses for professional drivers with SARI register entry, and segment-specific offerings for pharmacists (FPH-accredited), teachers, dental/medical practices, and parents/childcare providers. Curriculum is grounded in moulage-based reality simulation, supplemented by proprietary formats such as a VR-augmented Kombikurs (with NTS Events GmbH), Notfalltheater (professional-actor emergency theater for large groups), and structured post-incident Einsatz-Nachbesprechung (debriefing). All training is delivered under official Swiss Resuscitation Council (SRC) and Interverband für Rettungswesen (IVR) certifications, with additional recognition from eduQua, SSST, SUVA/asa (CZV), mediX/EQUAM, and Parifonds Bau.

The business model combines fee-based course delivery (CHF 200–1,990 per participant depending on level and duration, with corporate courses custom-quoted), an e-commerce channel (WooCommerce shop selling first aid kits from CHF 179 and dental emergency bags at CHF 795), and professional services (Sanitätszimmer consulting, Reality-Übung exercises, post-incident debriefing). The team of approximately 40 instructors and admin staff is dominated by credentialed clinicians — dipl. Rettungssanitäter HF and dipl. Experten Notfallpflege/Intensivpflege NDS HF — under medical direction by Dr. med. Karin Ehrler. The company is privately held with no disclosed funding, no parent company, and operates exclusively in Switzerland with trilingual delivery capability (German, French, English, Italian).

Others

• Parifonds Bau: Swiss construction industry joint social fund that subsidizes first aid training (and is a partner of notfallTraining). Not a direct competitor but a key ecosystem enabler that influences training demand in the construction vertical.

Direct peers

• SOS Notfalltraining: Swiss emergency training provider offering comparable IVR and BLS-AED-SRC courses to corporate and individual clients. Direct competitor in the same Swiss geographic market with similar curriculum focus.
• Johanniter Schweiz: Swiss arm of St. John Ambulance, directly offering BLS-AED-SRC and IVR-certified first aid training across Switzerland. Directly comparable in curriculum, regulatory certifications, and target customers (corporate, healthcare, public).
• Emergency Schulung Zürich: Swiss first aid and emergency training provider in the German-speaking region. Comparable accredited curriculum, corporate on-site delivery, and price points for BLS-AED and IVR courses.

Broad incumbents

• St. John Ambulance (UK): Largest first aid training provider in the UK with a comparable accredited curriculum, corporate training, and equipment sales model. Useful international benchmark for the Johanniter-class equivalent in Switzerland.
• Falck (Denmark): Nordic emergency services and training company offering first aid courses, corporate safety training, and emergency response. Comparable in combining training with adjacent services (consulting, equipment).
• Schweizerisches Rotes Kreuz (SRK): Swiss Red Cross delivers first aid training nationwide and is one of the most recognized accredited providers in Switzerland. Overlapping course offerings (BLS-AED, IVR levels) but operates as a much larger humanitarian organization with broader portfolio.
• American Red Cross: Dominant U.S. first aid/CPR/AED training provider with similar course structure (BLS, AED, responder levels), corporate training, and equipment sales. Analogous business model at much larger scale.

Emerging players
