The program structure of safety classes that are offered have changed due to updates from the American Red Cross.  Participants wishing to be certified in CPR have two options: CPR for the Professional Rescuer or Adult and Pediatric CPR/AED.  Included in all CPR classes is the First Aid Certification. 

Participants may also chose to register for a full course, review course, or challenge.  Please read descriptions for each course offering to determine the correct course to register for.
