WSI classes are scheduled now for the Winter / Spring.

BLS classes have happened continuously as this is an essential skill that can be taught in small COVID19 compliant groups.

One of the questions we get asked frequently is, "if we took the American Red Cross BLS Course, and NOW our employer is requiring us to be certified by the American Heart Association (AHA), how can we transfer our certification to the AHA?" The ANSWER is you cannot transfer your certifications from one agency to another. You must take the BLS class for each agency you need certification from. In the case above, the student must take the AHA BLS course to become AHA BLS certified. Yes, the course is VERY similar to the Red Cross, but each agency has their own online class and written tests.
