Web-based Blended Learning - American Red Cross of the Greater Lehigh Valley

Web-Based Blended Learning

Lifesaving skills are just a click away with Web-Based Blended Learning. The first portion of the training is completed online, allowing each course participant to take the training from any PC (Windows-based) computer with Internet access. For the second part of the training, a Red Cross instructor will conduct the approximately two-hour skills session at your place or ours!

Web-Based Blended Learning allows participants to learn at their own pace and convenience, and is as effective as classroom-only training. Whether you're new to Red Cross training or are already certified, Web-Based Blended Learning is for you. This new training option works well in environments with easy access to computers … businesses, schools, government agencies, nonprofit organizations, etc.

Courses currently available through the new Web-Based Blended Learning are:

First Aid
CPR - Adult, Child and Infant CPR
Automated External Defibrillation (AED) - Adult and Child
