CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) Training

Learn CPR and help save a life!

Knowing CPR:

  • Doubles or triples survival chance
  • Prevents brain damage
  • Buys time to allow for emergency services to arrive
  • Turns passive observers into active bystanders
  • Benefits loved ones as most cardiac arrests happen at home
  • Increases community preparedness

CPR training/certification is available for currently enrolled Fresno State students. After the two-and-a-half-hour class, students will receive a two-year certification from the American Red Cross. Resume worthy! The class focuses on adult CPR and AED use.  The cost is $40. Each CPR class has a maximum enrollment of 24 students.
