We offer three methods to get certified:

 

Blended Learning

                (online learning)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You complete the knowledge portion from any online computer at your own pace. After learning the skills and passing the test, you can then participate in an abbreviated skills session where you will practice and demonstrate your skills in person and receive your certification from an instructor.  These classes are great for those re-certifying or have time conflicts for our traditional classes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Available for: Any Adult, Child, Infant CPR or First Aid course

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Not available for: professional rescuer or specialty courses

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Community Classes

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We offer a wide range of traditional instructor lead courses in our community classroom. Courses range from public or “lay” responders to the professional rescuer. All courses include instructor led “hands on” demonstration and practice, materials, books, video portions and testing to illustrate all procedures and steps.

 

 

 

These courses are perfect for those who are new to certification or those who haven’t been certified in the last few years.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Workplace Courses

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

American Red Cross CPR and Standard First Aid classes meet content and teaching standards set by the the Federal Occupational Safety & Health Act (OSHA). We send an instructor with all necessary equipment and supplies, at the time and location most convenient for you, and can coordinate classes at multiple company locations, while maintaining a single point of contact.
