Emergency First Aid with CPR C & AED is also offered in a Blended Learning course format. Blended Learning courses are composed of an online component that runs for about half of the regular course duration. The online component covers first aid theory topics and can be completed in segments or all at once but must be completed prior to attending the in-person component.
The in-person course component will cover all necessary practical first aid training topics. Blended Learning courses are convenient for students with busy schedules or those that prefer less in-person classroom time.
