Excellent!
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Reginamarie4 weeks agoThis course is very well done. The online access is great plus I can revisit and get a refresher anytime. The in-person portion was exactly what I needed. Just enough hands-on instruction to get a feel for how to actually perform CPR and utilize the AED. While I hope to never have to use it, I’m thankful for this skill. Also, my instructor Homer made class a great experience!

AED/CPR
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.JRBB2 weeks agoGood quality and review, a little disappointed we were not able to practice the choking positions, this was just a do it on yourself. It helps to have another person to practice with.

Review for CPR/First Aide/AED class
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Cambalamwhoa2 months agoI recently completed a CPR and First Aid class, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The instructor was outstanding, highly knowledgeable, clear in their explanations, and passionate about teaching life-saving skills. He created an engaging and supportive environment that made the material easy to understand and retain. The hands-on practice and real-life scenarios were especially helpful in building confidence. The class was informative without being overwhelming, and I now feel fully prepared to ... perform CPR or provide first aid if ever faced with an emergency. I highly recommend this class to anyone looking to gain essential life-saving skills. It’s well worth the time and absolutely empowering!

Informative and Helpful
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Melissa T7 days agoI needed First Aid/CPR/AED training for work and decided to go to the Red Cross. The registration and overall process was easy and convenient. The class was informative and helpful. Drew, the instructor, did a great job answering my questions as well as others' questions. I feel prepared and am ready for an emergency situation, if needs be. Highly recommend.

Instructor and Training Were Great!
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.StephRiv4 years agoI didn't know what to expect when I signed up for this course because of how Covid has really changed the way we do almost everything. So I was worried it would be more video instruction and not so much hands on. I actually really ended up loving the video modules followed by the in class instruction. Our instructor was very articulate in explaining the CPR and AED procedure. And, yes, you do get to practice with a "dummy". I think that the instructor made something that can be mundane an ... enjoyable and memorable experience.

manageable
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.teachermom5 years agoI greatly appreciate the ability to do a large portion of the class online. With 4 kids and a very busy schedule, this made taking the class much more manageable and easier to fit into my family's schedule. The online portion was also extremely helpful with the way it was laid out and how you were made to do the steps several times to pass. Very hands on for an online course. The in-class teacher was also extremely personable and put any anxieties I had about doing things correctly at ... ease. I left with the confidence that I could do this if I needed to and I would know what to do. Thank you!

Great Course
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Soulpono3 years agoThis is a great course with valuable info and skills learned. I wish the class came with a booklet of the class material learned. I ended up buying the material from the Red Cross website after the class.

No regrets
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Julie W2 weeks agoMy son and I completed the CPR/AED course last week. My son needed the certification for his job, and I wanted to take it just for the practice. The building was easy to get to with easy parking. The course was 2 hours and 15 minutes. In that short amount of time we learned so much. There was a mix of videos, discussion time, and hands on practice. The instructor was nice and easy going, and we felt comfortable contributing and asking questions. I highly recommend this class.

Great experience
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.DarlinKitty553 years agoI had no clue what to experience. The instructor was professional, gloves, masks and hand sanitizer were provided as well as individual dummies for everyone enrolled. I was only there for the CPR/AED session, so I didn't get to experience the First Aid course, but the experience was great. It kept my attention, the slides and videos were quick and engaging. I really liked the hands-on portion. I will definitely take this course again in 2 years and look forward to it.

Learning to Save a Life
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.CancerWarrior4 years agoWhile you hope you never need it, CPR/AED training is insurance just in case the need arises. Melanie was the instructor for our class and made 3 hours vanish it went by so quickly! She talked to us not at us, asked questions about our experience and why we wanted to learn. She helped those who might not grasp the concept as quickly, but was always helpful and supportive! She is friendly and knowledgeable about what she teaches and enjoys the personal interaction with her students. She is most ... definitely in the right place doing the right job!
