AED Certification in Minnesota

Developed to mirror a traditional learning environment, the Red Cross's in-person AED classes in Minnesota allow you to learn how to use an automated external defibrillator under the guidance of trained, local experts. Combining lecture with hands-on skills sessions, these courses give you time to ask questions and work through problems as a team while learning the latest techniques.

At the Red Cross, AED training in Minnesota is available for individuals, healthcare providers, and schools. And with more than a century of training behind us, we can help you deliver the care needed to save a life. Designed to suit your schedule and your needs, we offer in-person and online classes, as well as our blended Simulation Learning experience, which combines online coursework with an in-person skills session, and gives you full certification that's valid for two years.

If you have a Minnesota AED certification that's within 30 days of its expiration date, you can register for an abbreviated in-person or blended Simulation Learning class. Both types of classes allow you to learn the updated science and best practices for when and how to use AED devices, and allow you to demonstrate your skills to a certified instructor. This means that upon successful completion of your training you'll receive full certification that's valid for two years. Be prepared to help when it's needed most.

With our Minnesota AED classes for healthcare providers, we can help you stay abreast of the latest protocols, maintain your certifications and provide life-saving care when every moment counts. Classes are available in person and via our blended Simulation Learning experience, which gives you the opportunity to complete your coursework online, then demonstrate your skills to a certified instructor. Both types of courses offer full certification that's valid for two years.

At The American Red Cross, we know how important it is to create a safe environment for your students and your faculty. That's why we've developed a training program just for schools. With our specially designed program, your school's educators and administrators can learn to teach Minnesota AED certification classes, then deliver training to students and faculty. This way, you can create an on-campus community that will be ready to help when it's needed most.

At the Red Cross we believe in empowering you to provide care when it's needed most. In order to make sure that you receive the training you need to confidently help during times of crisis, all Red Cross classes, including our AED classes in Minnesota, are developed under the guidance of, and reviewed by, the Red Cross Scientific Advisory Council. Comprised of more than 50 nationally-recognized medical, scientific, and academic experts, the Council works to ensure that Red Cross programs and materials are not only based on the best science available, but that they're also effective and easy to understand.
