Fast CPR

I had let my BLS lapse. Needed to redo the whole course. There are scammers out there promising to give you your CPR certification acceptable anywhere, only to find out later — nope no dice.
This is not one of those places. They are legit. I found them directly off the American Heart Association’s website.
Signing up was super easy! You get an e-​mail confirmation lickity split, and info regarding their parking policy and further course info.
Driving over I was ‘oh no, I’m gonna get lost!’ (yup, I tend to take one wrong turn to many when going to a new location.) NOT this time! SUPER easy to get to! RIGHT off where the Pali becomes Bishop — right there on the corner! Woohoo! That was one great positive thing! No wrong turns for me this time (except for the fact I missed the entrance to the garage thinking it was an exit only and saw this monster truck dead center in the path — THEN saw it was both entrance and exit. — *ugh*) Not a big deal for making a loop around and then got to the ticket booth — no ticket came out. I tried 2 – 3 more times, and then hit all the other buttons on top (except for talking to someone); soooooo in good faith I trusted there was a valid reason for no ticket but secretly feared the meter/​parking nazi’s to pop out somewhere and slap the vehicle a fine or two or three.
Go upstairs, and signed in. Staff very welcoming. Easy to pay — $ 75 for the fee. (not bad considering other places charge way more than that) and all materials were included.
There was a full house! Space is a lil snug for all of us (2 instructors, and 14 or 15 students), but not enough to make you not perform your skills. First hour spent was going all over the drills. And everything went super fast, little breaks, just straight to the nitty gritty. The next hour was spent watching the basics of what was changing, and what was pertinent to need to know. After the second hour — very fast review — then we all finished up our tests; done. Out the door.
Oh and the fear I had of getting the fine? Well turns out the machine was not working properly — so everyone was being allowed in free for today. Hooray for money being saved! :D
Now if you are going to take this as a first timer — don’t worry. This guy is full of information and works you through what you need to know. He focuses on making sure you know the material — in a very relaxed and easy manner. He is very friendly, and quite comical. Yes, comedy is good, and he knows how to deliver.
IF they could branch out to the windward side, that would be even easier! Buuuut, given the location I can’t complain too much.

Fast and efficient! Small class, there were only two of us. A balance of video and hands on learning. Would recommend. You get your card right after the class!

The instructor is informative and very experienced. The class is short and brief. Thank you and best luck.

Super easy and convenient CPR class. Big plus is getting CPR cards on the same day once class is out. The class is efficient with its time and well worth the money. The instructor is funny and makes the class fun and livens up some of the dry content. Definitely recommend.

The company name «FAST CPR» completely describes what they stand for!
I enrolled online a day ahead for AHA BLS certification training. The online enrollment process was very easy, no hassle at all. I just printed out my receipt, grabbed a notepad, a pen, and was ready.
I got to the Century Square building 15 min before class and the building was very nice and had a very professional feel. As soon as I walked into the the Fast CPR office, I was greeted by a very nice woman and the instructor who gave me a clipboard with a easy to remember summary of training and the exam. The instructor was very nice and accommodating!
Before stepping into the class, you are asked to take your shoes off because the room is carpeted (I loved that the room had carpet, it was very comfortable). The view from the room was a nice bonus to the comfy atmosphere. As I waited in the room, I went over the summary sheet and looked through the BLS manual that I had purchased from them to get a head start.
Class started on time and there were only 5 of us in the class! Our instructor was very funny and made us all feel comfortable from the start. We watched a few short videos and demonstrated what we were being taught. There was no need for my notepad and pen, everything was easy to remember!
Before I knew it, the class was over and we were all ready to take the AHA BLS exam! Everyone finished quickly and we all passed!
If you need BLS certification/​re-​certification, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND FAST CPR!
I will definitely be back for re-​certification!
