ICM’s on-site CPR training in Washington often runs around 3 to 4 hours and includes setup, lecture, hands-on skills with mannequins and AEDs, and Red Cross certification delivery.

Why On-Site CPR Training Matters

  • Employers need staff CPR-certified for compliance and workplace safety.
  • On-site training saves travel time and ensures your team learns in a familiar environment.
  • Certifications are American Red Cross accredited, making them widely accepted for jobs and schools. (Students receive 0.4 CEU credits upon completion).

FAQs

How long does a CPR class take?

The typical CPR class takes around 3 to 4 hours depending on class size and interaction.

What if our facility doesn’t have an AED?

While AED training is great to have, if you do not have the equipment in your facilities, then training is not required which would make the training time a little shorter.

What other CPR/First Aid training is available?

We also have instructors certified to train Basic Life Saving (BLS) and Bloodborne Pathogens (BBP) if required. We do need to know about these requirements in advance.

When do trainees receive their certification cards?

We email certifications to the employer typically within 1 business day. Certifications are also available via the Red Cross portal accessible to students with the email address used for the class.
