CPR

Learn CPR from people who do CPR and are up to date with the latest changes in curriculum. Our 4-hour CPR courses combine lecture time with a lot of hands-on practice to give our students the skills they need to help save a life. Working closely with the International Heart Institute, we ensure our students get the most up to date and dynamic training available. We have two types of CPR courses available to suit your needs.

Heartsaver CPR

Also known as adult and child CPR, this is our most popular and requested CPR course. This course covers the basics of CPR technique, choking maneuvers, and AED use so you can be prepared on the job, at play or anywhere in between.

It comes included with our WFR courses and is often offered the evening before our WFA and WFR-R courses. This certification lasts 2 years.

Healthcare Provider CPR

This CPR is required for most health professions, as well as many health-related college programs. It comprehensively covers adult, child and infant CPR techniques, choking maneuvers, and AED use.

It comes included with our WEMT, EMT and SWM programs, and is offered the evening before our EMT-B refreshers. This certification lasts 2 years.
