American Red Cross Online Classes & Training Course Reviews

For what please clarify · 1 day ago

Appreciate the online learning opportunities afforded by Red Cross. However, wish there were skills classes available closer to where I live. Perhaps identifying trained personnel in the area and at the community college and university nearby, could be pursued. Also, rated the instructor as a 1 as the rating system did not seem to apply to an online situation. Did you want a review of the narrator, the different sections? Am unsure as to what you are looking for. The class itself was clear and succinct. The demonstrations that were shown were very helpful in envisioning real life situations. Also, do not personally care for the acronyms. Would rather try and memorize what is needed rather than sometimes random letters. Plus, they have changed over the years.
