Easy Bridging to Become
a Red Cross Instructor
Do you or your Instructors, Instructor Trainers and/or Training Center Faculty hold a current Instructor certification from a comparable training organization such as the American Heart Association (AHA) or the Health & Safety Institute (HSI)? If so, it’s easy to bridge to American Red Cross training courses.
1. Register for the appropriate bridge.
2. Fill out the online form and submit it with the required credentials.
3. Review program materials for the course.
4. Take the free online Instructor bridge course. No in-person class is required.

Great teaching ideas
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.Netz4 years agoI am glad I did this-while taking the bridging course to meet the needs of the community, I really liked some of the great instructional ideas for class. Where I am struggling now is finding the instructional material links to send out to a class to start! I’ve emailed them but haven’t received an answer. PS-the site, even tho it issued me a card, it would not show my progress complete-I took my assessment twice to get it to register complete.

Perfect transition to high levels of service
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.AndiF4 years agoI had completed the CPR/AED/First Aid instructor course, and I needed to add the Bridge to train different levels of staff. This was a simple and effective way to upgrade my certification. Access to course materials were made available once I uploaded my current Instructor Cert. You will need to poke around to find the resources needed for the course. Give yourself some time for preparation to train the course as there is a learning curve involved. Nothing too complicated, but it will require a ... bit of effort and time to navigate the Red Cross system. It is easy to master. The search bar works wonders.

This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Marshall B5 years agoI currently got my emergency medical response instructor certification, and it was super easy to do so! I love ARC, and I’m glad I’m apart of the ARC community and get to keep up on my training and train. If it wasn’t for ARC, I wouldn’t be able to accomplish all the things I love to do!
