Cpr Certification: What You Should Know

CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) is a life-saving skill that anyone can learn—and everyone should. At GLA Training Solutions LLC, we believe that CPR training should be accessible, practical, and empowering. Here’s what you need to know:

✅ CPR Saves Lives - Every minute without CPR reduces a person’s chance of survival by 10%. Quick action can double or triple survival odds in cardiac emergencies.

✅ You Don’t Need a Medical Degree - CPR certification is for everyone—parents, teachers, coaches, and everyday heroes. You’ll learn how to respond confidently in critical moments.

✅ Recognized Certifications Matter - Our courses follow nationally accepted standards from the American Heart Association (AHA) and American Red Cross, ensuring your certification is valid and respected.

✅ It’s More Than Chest Compressions - You’ll learn:

• Adult, child, and infant CPR

• AED (Automated External Defibrillator) use

• Choking response techniques

• Emergency scene safety and legal basics

✅ Certification Is Hands-On - Courses include both a written component and a practical skills test to ensure you’re ready to act in real emergencies.

✅ Stay Current - CPR certification typically lasts 2 years. We offer easy recertification options to keep your skills sharp and your credentials up-to-date.

✅ Online Options Available - We offer blended learning: complete theory online, then join us in person for hands-on practice. Full online-only certification may not meet employer requirements.
