• First Aid Training in Idaho

    At the American Red Cross, we not only offer classes for those in every walk of life, but we also understand that everyone learns differently – which is why we deliver classes in a wide range of formats. This way, you can gain valuable skills and information in the way that suits you best. In fact, our Idaho First Aid training classes – and a wide range of other courses – can be taken in a traditional classroom setting, via online learning, or in our blended Simulation Learning format, which combines online coursework with an in-person skills session. Check our newest course listing for details, and earn the certification you need your way.

    If full, OSHA-compliant first aid certification isn't important for your job, or you don't necessarily want to participate in an in-person skills session, then our first aid training online in Idaho may just what you need. Our online courses feature the same up-to-date, science-based information as our in-person courses, but instead of honing your skills under the tutelage of an instructor, your skills are developed through a series of interactive activities. Best of all, because these courses can be completed all in one sitting or over a period of several days, you won't have to adjust your schedule to accommodate your class – simply start (and finish) it online when it suits you best.

    The benefits of learning first aid go far beyond having the skills to respond during times of crisis (though that is certainly the biggest benefit, and often the most significant reason people sign up for first aid classes in Idaho). In fact, your training can help you grow and develop in many ways. For instance, it can help you gain confidence, be better prepared as a parent, partner, neighbor, friend or co-worker, set yourself apart when applying for a job, inspire others to learn first aid, or even inspire you to delve deeper into medicine and volunteer for a new organization or change careers. Sign up for one of our first aid classes in Idaho and discover what it can do for you.

    In Idaho, first aid recertification classes allow you to renew your skills, learn the latest techniques and can help keep your memory fresh – so you're prepared to help when it's needed most. Our abbreviated renewal courses are designed specifically for those with credentials that are valid but nearing their expiration. They take less time to complete than our standard first aid classes, but allow you to maintain your certification for an additional two years.

    When you take a first aid class in Idaho, you'll learn to provide care when, and how, it's needed most. Through your local Red Cross chapter, you can gain critical information about helping infants, children and adults during times of crisis, and learn proper procedures for delivering care that not only helps improve "patient" outcomes, but can help keep you safe, as well. Of course, after your class has ended, we'll still be there for you. With refresher materials and a handy app, you can not only test your skills, but get instant access to information on handling the most common first aid emergencies.

    At the Red Cross, we believe that learning can take place at any age – and should continue throughout your life. That's why we offer classes for everyone. From CPR classes to, AED and First Aid training, in Idaho we make it easy for people of all ages and interests to learn something new.
