First Aid Instructor Class
| | Grant Funded First Aid Instructor Class
The Anaheim/Santa Ana UASI has funded an instructor class for staff and volunteers who are interested in teaching First Aid, CPR, AED and Wilderness & Remote First Aid to volunteers.
Grant funding is extremely limited and therefore only a few spaces remain open for Anaheim Volunteers. If you are interested, please submit a registration form which must be approved by the program before you will be accepted into class. Anyone not accepted into class will remain on the waiting list in the event a student cancels.
To enroll, you must have a current First Aid, CPR, AED certification and be able to complete a pre-test with 80% proficiency or greater. To be certified, you must attend all class meetings, and pass class exams with 80% proficiency or greater.
