1. Interactive Video & Instructor-Led Training
Class begins with a structured mix of real-world video scenarios and expert instructor demonstrations. We cover the latest life-saving guidelines, ensuring you understand the theory behind high-quality chest compressions, rescue breathing, and choking relief.
2. Hands-on Practice with Feedback Manikins
You won’t just watch—you will actively practice. Each student receives their own sanitized mannequin to practice adult, child, and infant CPR techniques. Our training equipment provides real-time feedback so you can perfect your compression depth and rate with confidence.
