Considerations
-
There are many websites that offer online courses on CPR & First Aid training. Before choosing which website you will be using, you must first decide if you want to be CPR & First Aid certified, as some websites offer training with no certification (see Resources).
Certification
-
If you need CPR & First Aid certification, choose a program that follows American Heart Association and Red Cross guidelines (see Resources).
-
Costs
-
Expect to pay between $20 and $100 for online CPR & First Aid training.
Warning
-
Verify that the program you have chosen does not refer you to a live instructor for hands-on skills testing, as this is more expensive and you may have to wait for an opening in the instructor's class.
Considerations
-
If you work exclusively with children, you may decide to learn only pediatric CPR & First Aid, which is also available online.
