Blended Learning
|
| |
| Description
| Web-based Blended Learning is a flexible and self-paced training. Unlike training with a group, participants can learn at their own pace, allowing them to stop and review information whenever necessary to ensure that they completely understand the instruction. Course takers have the option of going through the lessons in full or abbreviated form and can test out of lessons as well, making it a timesaver for those recertifying.
The first portion of the training is completed online and can be done from any computer that meets the minimum operating system requirements. For the second part of training, a Red Cross trained instructor will conduct a skills practice and assessment with course takers.
To find Blended-Learning Courses, look under each of the regular course schedules for courses with the Red Titles. |
|
|
| Course Length | Each Blended Learning First Aid/APR/AED program course is divided into two sessions. Participants must first complete the self-paced online session, which includes the written exam, and then successfully complete an instructor-led practice and assessment session in order to achieve certification.
The online session takes approximately two to three hours, depending on the pace of the student.
The Skills Practice and Assessment session generally takes approximately two hours, depending on the particular course being assessed. |
|
|
| Certification | Certifications for Blended Learning courses have the same validity periods as the standard courses. |
|
|
| | Cancellations & changes must be made at least 24 hours prior to class or a $10 service charge will be incurred, unless we cancel the class. Please call 508-775-1540 Ext. 11 for transfer or refund information. |
