What people are saying about our classes!

Mr Tobing didn't dumb things down - but he was able to zero in on the essential information a first responder needs to know. One of the most useful first aid & CPR classes I've ever taken.  I highly recommend it.

-JR

I don't think you could find a better CPR/AED First Aid class anywhere. Amer Tobing is a top notch trainer who keeps the class interesting and fun - all the while teaching skills necessary for an emergency.

- Crystal M.

Alicia, a 16 year firefighter and great humor!) made sure that people were there to learn not fall asleep. Definitely would recommend this class for any CPR/ AED BLS certification!

- Gilbert G.

Not only did we learn about CPR, we also learned about wrapping a cast due to third-degree burns, and everything imaginable to help victims in trauma.
