CPR, First Aid & Medical Response Training

American Heart Association classes taught at your workplace by instructors who are, or have been, firefighters, EMTs and paramedics.

Overview

STC is an American Heart Association Heartsaver Training Center. Instructors bring all equipment and materials to your location, and classes are capped at 10 students per instructor so everyone gets hands-on practice.

For sites that need more than CPR, STC teaches a 40-hour first responder course based on the US DOT national standard curriculum, its annual refresher and AHA Basic Life Support.

  • Taught by responders

    Instructors are current or former firefighters, EMTs and paramedics.

  • Ten students per instructor

    Small classes mean everyone practices compressions and AED use.

  • We bring everything

    Manikins, AED trainers, manuals and cards come to your site.
