I wanted to renew my pediatric/adult CPR/first aid/AED certification, so I found a class through…read morethe Red Cross website that worked with my schedule and signed up. I prefer to do the classroom-only option for classes like this, since I want as much hands-on training and discussion as possible to help me retain what I'm learning. (They do also offer many hybrid options online.) I'm very glad I signed up for a Sunday morning class so I could park on the road nearby, since I have no idea how anyone would be able to find parking around this location otherwise. (I recommend coming early and checking all street signs carefully for the parking restrictions/requirements.) Once I made it to the door, I pressed the bell and went upstairs. We started pretty much on time and every seat in the class was filled. The class consisted of text and videos on the television interspersed with group/partner activities and hands-on training. We got to use the adult-size torsos (with lights to show you if you were pressing hard enough), infant dolls, practice AED machines, training Epi-pens, and some basic first-aid materials. Luckily, the class members who attended on this day were fun and engaged, so we had good discussions. The class lasted the full 6.5 hours. (In the past, it's been 50-50 for going for the full time, since sometimes the class votes to take a working lunch to finish early.) The teacher also ended up taking more frequent breaks toward the end, since people were lagging after lunch. I do like that the full-day class means you don't have to take a separate test, since the instructor verifies you are doing all the hands-on techniques properly. We even got a pin after answer a final "quiz" question correctly at the end of the class. I left the class feeling prepared and ready to help with CPR or first aid in an emergency. The completion certificate link was sent via email, which is handy if I need to pull it up while I'm on the go.

I got lucky that my class ended up being just me so I got to ask any questions I had and Francisco would gladly answer them. The whole experience was an easy and very insightful.

The instructors were great. Nidhi is very knowledgeable, friendly, and open. The class sizes were pretty small and you're encouraged to ask lots of questions. There were also snacks and water which are important to me since i was pregnant and didn't want to go 2+ hours not eating/drinking anything. My husband and I brought sandwiches to one class and we were able to eat them during the class (it was around dinner time/6pm) so atmosphere is casual which I appreciate.
