Certified American Red Cross Training Sessions

 When you enroll in a First Aid class with the American Red Cross, you’ll gain the essential skills to respond confidently in times of crisis. In just a few hours, our courses teach you how to recognize when someone needs help and provide the appropriate care. We offer certification programs for both the general public and healthcare professionals, as well as convenient recertification courses to help you keep your skills—and your credentials—up to date.

Get CPR/AED certified and be ready to help when it matters most. As part of our mission to prepare people to respond confidently in emergencies, the American Red Cross offers CPR/AED certification courses that give you the skills to save a life when every second counts.

You might be surprised to learn that the average response time for first responders after a 911 call is 8–12 minutes. During sudden cardiac arrest, every minute without defibrillation reduces a person’s chance of survival by about 10%. 

 American Red Cross Basic Life Support (BLS) classes give you the knowledge and confidence to respond safely and effectively to medical emergencies in your community. Through a blend of reading, interactive instruction, and hands-on practice, our BLS training helps you build and refine the skills needed to provide quality care and improve patient outcomes. Designed for both individuals and teams, our flexible, modular courses can also help you meet your organization’s standards for care.
