CPR Certification Online - Blended Learning

Our Blended Learning CPR Course options offer a dynamic and flexible approach to CPR training, combining the convenience of online learning with the essential hands-on skills practice in a classroom setting. Blended learning integrates the best of both worlds, allowing participants to acquire knowledge at their own pace through interactive online modules while also providing hands-on practice and guidance from certified instructors during in-person sessions.

How Blended Learning Works:

Blended learning merges online learning with face-to-face instruction, offering a comprehensive and efficient way to learn CPR skills. Participants begin by completing interactive online modules, which cover essential theoretical (didactic) knowledge, including CPR techniques, AED operation, basic life support (BLS) procedures, first aid protocols, and pediatric CPR guidelines; depending on which course you require.

Following the completion of online modules, participants attend an in-person skills session conducted by our experienced instructors. During this session, participants engage in hands-on practice, receive personalized feedback, and demonstrate competency in these skills, under the guidance of instructors.

Courses Offered:

The following Blended Learning courses encompass a variety of specialized courses tailored to meet the diverse needs of participants:

  • CPR/AED & First-Aid: This course focuses on teaching participants how to perform CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) techniques and effectively use an AED (automated external defibrillator) in emergency situations.

Participants learn to assess situations, provide initial care, and minimize the risk of further injury or harm.
