Program Overview

Our Standards

At no cost, all employees, coaches, and fingerprinted volunteers can utilize our program to receive First Aid CPR/AED training in the Adult age group as long as they are cleared to work/volunteer by Human Resources.

External Training

(Non-CUSD Agency)

If our program does not have a certification course available within a timeframe that a trainee needs, First Aid CPR/AED training must be sought from an outside agency that offer courses meets the following requirements:

1. The course covers all three core skills of First Aid, CPR, and AED for at least the Adult Age Group. If these core skills are missing, the certification cannot be accepted.

2. In-person, hands-on skills testing for all three core skills is completed with the agency’s certified instructor before a certification card is issued.

3. The course must meet OSHA training standards. Most agencies state compliance in the course description.

Any incurred costs from seeking training outside of the District will not be reimbursed and will be the responsibility of the trainee.
