Troop 550 is offering online hybrid Wilderness First Aid and CPR/AED classes.
Wilderness First Aid:
Students are enrolled in a hybrid class - 8 hours of course content is accessed online, to be completed at your convenience. Once the student completes the online class, a skills evaluation is scheduled with Troop 550 Instructors. The skills evaluation is approximately 8 hours of skills practice and evaluation.
CPR/AED:
Students are enrolled in an online class, approximately 2 hours of online content, followed by a scheduled skills evaluation. Troop 550 offers Adult, Child and Infant CPR instruction. We use Prestan CPR dummies with feedback for compression effectiveness and rate.
Wilderness First Aid and CPR/AED skills evaluations may be scheduled on the same day.
Certification:
Upon completion of Wilderness First Aid and CPR/AED, students are issued an ECSI Certificate of Completion. Renewal is recommended after 2 years. This Certificate of Completion meets the requirement for Scouting America High Adventure Base Wilderness First Aid and CPR/AED training.
