This was just a refresher/renewal for me but he made sure to remind us of all the important details that you can forget about if you haven't had to administer CPR before. Class got out a bit early and cards were sent very soon after the class ended! Would def come back if my employer didn't offer it to employees.

Great experience, Awesome instructors. I completed my BLS recertification a couple years ago and…read morelast night completed my PALS. Each experience was seamless from start to finish. The instructors taught beyond the required scope, yet the course remained clear, concise, and entertaining. They were prompt to provide documentation and were open to all questions. Couldn't ask for a better program.

Searched online for firearm safety and CCW classes, and came across Michigan pistol Academy, which had great reviews on Google. Weekday and weekend classes. Scott was our instructor, along with some input from Rick. The class was well paced, included, not only instruction on the law but firearm safety, and some hands-on training. After that, we drove to a local range and had live fire safety and shooting training. I thoroughly enjoyed the class, the price was reasonable, and the small class format made for some in-depth conversation and training. Highly recommend.

I could not believe she failed me when I eat did not even go through the light I believe she's holding it against me then I missed the first appointment.

Took my BLS Provider recertification today (3/4/2022). The instructor, Scott, was fabulous…read more Questions were answered with respect and thoroughly. Various scenarios were presented and helped to reinforce knowledge. Newer AHA guidelines were presented, which is helpful. We had adequate time for hands-on practice with real-time feedback. I will refer colleagues and lay family and friends to consider CHASE for BLS. The sign up was easy with a lot of class options. Received my certificate on the day of class, which is helpful to provide to employer. If they offered ACLS, I would be interested! I highly recommend CHASE!

So, most of us are familiar with the American Red Cross either through blood drives or due to the…read moreneed of emergency relief throughout the United States during times of crisis. But did you know that the American Red Cross, more specifically the Southeastern Chapter, located on Mack Ave, just off of Woodward offers more than just emergency relief to the community and blood drives? In addition to these wonderful things, the American Red Cross of SE Michigan provides training to individuals and workplaces in CPR and AED, youth programs like babysitter training, nurse assistant training, and community outreach programs. The staff of this non-profit organization is caring and compassionate. I donate blood here regularly and the staff always is friendly and makes my experience stress free. Check out their website for class schedules, local blood drives and volunteer opportunities.

Luckily for me those both happen to be days I usually have a little extra time, so it's not too big of a deal. The facility is clean and efficient, with friendly nurses. I am always in and out of this center much faster than when I've donated blood at other locations (which probably has to do with the fact that just not as many people come to this one). There is a man named Maurice who works/volunteers here, checking folks in and manning the cookie & juice table - what a guy! SO friendly, always has a joke and an interesting story. You can tell he so genuinely enjoys the work he does there, and he will thank you all over the place for coming and donating. It is nice to see someone so truly happy to be doing something good, and it is nice to feel appreciated for doing my part as well. If you donate here once, though, as soon as enough time has passed for you to be eligible to donate again, they will BLOW UP your phone calling to get you back in. Slightly annoying, but you gotta appreciate the persistence. :)

Wow! What an amazing experience! I had the pleasure of doing a virtual tour of the rooftop hives…read morewith Brian Peterson, master beekeeper extraordinaire. He is a 5th grade teacher and a professor at Oakland University and has such a passion for teaching people about the most amazing super organisms - honeybees! I can't say enough about the tour. I felt like I should have been taking notes because there are so many amazing facts about honeybees I never knew before. I'll definitely be visiting Bees in the D in person once the coronavirus gets under control. If you have an interest in supporting a local non-profit and are curious exactly what beehives are doing on urban rooftops, come to Detroit for a tour. You can also visit their Facebook or Twitter social media pages and check out some free bee education. Most importantly, donate to this amazing cause or buy some honey or merchandise. Let's save the bees!

I was so excited to see this virtual event being offered and let me tell you, Brian and Jeff did…read morenot disappoint! From hearing about the story behind where the bees are located to getting into the hive, this virtual event was the bees knees! I must admit that growing up and even still I have been afraid of yellow jackets, as I learned to distinguish. The past couple years as I have learned about honey bees and their near extinction, I found myself losing that fear. Listening to Brian explain all the different kinds of bees in a hive and the difference between bees and wasps really helped ease my fears. I have to say the bee keeper suit is a major perk to the biz if you ask me. It was so neat to see all the stages of the hive as Brian got deeper into each box. I could not believe all the aspects of the hive we were able to see! If I were a bee keeper I would just be out there eating any honey from the first box! I cannot believe there are 30-50 lbs of honey that each hive needs to sustain themselves and how hard they work year around. I too feel like I need 30-50 lbs of honey to keep me going! I loved hearing Brian talk about how different hives have different temperaments. Makes sense but definitely not something I had thought about! I appreciate Brian and Jeff taking the time to educate us all and do it so well. Brian is fantastic! I wish I lived closer so I could attend a honey and mead tasting! One day I might just have to make the trip! Thank you to Yelp Detroit for putting on this wonderful event with Bees in the D!

After hearing their sales advertising on WJR countless times we attended their class, provided…read morefinancial information and attended a lengthy follow up meeting with an advisor. Then walked away. We found the education meeting only met some of its goals. If you've kept yourself updated regarding financial planning, investing, retirement, did not add too much value. I remain unclear of the instructors qualifications and expertise. However, a positive is their comprehensive personal cash flow model. Very interesting, unique and adds value. Should be an industry standard. They were not forthright in disclosing that they sell annuities to fulfill modeled predictable cash flows. When asked about selling commission products, we were told that is a disclosed conflict of interest. Well it may be, somewhere. If you accept their financial plan, future contact meetings and possible future adjustments are only scheduled annually. While their plan may be well thought out, it did not fit our expectations and needs for ongoing dialogue, evolution and progress.

My wife and I felt comfortable in both the classroom and range as Glenn, like a caring father, guided us safely through the CPL process. I would have paid the price of admission just to hear the stories and scenarios Glenn experienced!

My advice, as Glenn would instruct, be slow to pull the trigger, but not in the case of choosing The Profession of Arms for all your training needs.
