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 videos and useful information
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Chrisintheburg1 month agoI found the information very helpful. I especially liked the videos that developed a “critical eye”. It was very helpful to learn good communication techniques when correcting skills.

Excellent blend of teaching modalities.
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.LTLifeSaver3 weeks agoThe instructor did a great job preparing me to instruct others. I know I will be able to take the material forward to train others immediately. I enjoyed his teaching style. He was comprehensive and "real".

Good practice session!
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.Anonymous3 years agoGiven the format (Teams video), this was a good option. Obviously face-to-face hands-on practice and coaching would have been better.

W&RFA instructor - It taught me a lot
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.Chiago3 years agoThe course got me my instructor certificate. Online learning is not the best mode for me personally. I did learn a lot and the course made me aware that I need more study. There's way more that I need to know than can be covered in such a course. So, part of it is an inspiration to regularly review the class materials.

Was confusing at first
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.mzcheryl5 years agoGetting started is a little tedious but once you get going it is ok. It took me a week between credential upload to take the class as i was waiting for a go ahead email. I finally went into the website and discovered that my credentials were good and i could take the class. Uploading credentials for every class you want to take is kind of a pain in the butt. Don't try to start anything just before a holiday weekend. I work weekend so i thought it was perfect time to get started, not. Uploaded ... certification Thursday evening and had to wait until Tuesday to be approved. Website stated Monday the holiday closed but nothing about Friday. I was dissapointed.
