PLEASE READ ALL THE FOLLOWING IMPORTANT DETAILS:

The course offered at Manchester Community College’s Workforce Development Center is completed in two parts.

Part 1: At home online training component through a URL

A URL will be emailed a week or more prior to the skills sessions scheduled to enable time to complete the online portion of the course. This training will take about 4-5 hours to complete.  Upon completion of the online portion, students will be given a test of knowledge.  When the student passes with a score of 80% or more, a certificate of online completion will be sent. This certificate must be forwarded to Jgrovo@ccsnh.edu with the date of your hands on class prior to attending the hands-on skills training.

Part 2: In-person component for hands-on skills training at MCC

Once the student has performed all hands-on lifesaving tasks satisfactorily, the student has successfully completed both parts of the course.  Within 48 hours the student will receive the final American Red Cross BLS Provider certification via email to print or email to others. 

Please register for the class at least one week in advance of the hands-on skills training session.
