Blended Online/Hands-on CPR Certification Option
Who needs the "Blended Course?"
- Individuals who are getting CPR certification for the first time
- Individuals who have been informed by their company or licensing administration that they must have a hands-on skill evaluation
What is the "Blended Course?"
All training and written testing is completed online at www.procpr.org or www.profirstaid.com. Skills are then evaluated in person by a registered ProCPR, LLC Facilitator or certified CPR Instructor.
How do I get started with the "Blended Course?"
It's easy! Simply sign up online. Because you are taking the blended course, check the box that says "My certification has not lapsed more than 6 months or I am taking the blended course." When you have passed the test and paid for the certification, print out the "Blended Course" packet and card. Upon successful completion of the skill evaluation, have the skill evaluator sign the back of the card.
How can I find someone to perform my skill evaluation?
ProCPR, LLC allows skill evaluations to be performed for ProCPR and ProFirstAid certifications by currently certified instructors bridged from other curriculum providers. Instructors who are currently certified by the American Heart Association, American Red Cross, Medic First Aid, ASHI, or other nationally recognized programs that follow the most current ILCOR and ECC recommendations may be immediately bridged as an approved skill evaluator for ProCPR, LLC by submitting a copy of their certification cards and completing the ProCPR, LLC Skill Evaluator application. You can search for a ProCPR skill evaluator at www.blendedcpr.com.
How Can I become a ProCPR Faciliator?
Simply start by signing up at Blended CPR or complete the skill evaluator application and fax it back to us. The second step is to be trained or bridged from another program. Facilitator training can be completed in one day. The amount of time is completely dependent upon the participant. ProCPR facilitator training is for people who need to perform skill evaluations for a business, daycare, ambulance department, fire hall, hospital, nursing staff, etc. This allows a facility or organization to provide consistent, high quality training in-house, saving time and money. This training is NOT for someone who desires to be a CPR or First Aid instructor to conduct traditional 4-8 hour classroom instruction.
Prerequisites:- A current CPR and/or First Aid certification from ProFirstAid, ProCPR, or a recognized organization up to the level he or she will be evaluating.
- A demonstrated need to coordinate training for others.
- Preferably (not required), a current certified CPR and/or First Aid Instructor with a recognized organization.
- Preferably (not required), a person with prior medical training who has used CPR and First Aid in real-life situations.
