AED Certification in Honolulu

When someone suffers a sudden cardiac emergency, his or her chances of survival are reduced by approximately 10% for each minute that defibrillation is delayed. And with the average response time of first responders once 911 is called registering at between 8 and 12 minutes, you can see that knowing how to use an AED is critical. That's why the American Red Cross offers a range of options for AED training in Honolulu. With online-only and in-person classes, plus our blended Simulation Learning, we make it easy to get the training you need.

Because every minute counts when care is needed, we offer our Honolulu AED certification classes at a range of times, and in a variety of locations, all year long. Delivered by trained experts, our courses include lecture materials, as well as hands-on training to help you become comfortable with how and when to use external automated defibrillators. After successful completion of an in-person course or blended Simulation Learning class, you'll receive full certification, as well as access to online refresher materials to help keep your memory, and your skills, sharp.

Certifications are valid for two years. In order to help you maintain your credentials, and learn the latest information and techniques, we offer a number of Honolulu AED training classes designed specifically for those whose certifications are about to expire, or are within 30 days of expiring. These courses are abbreviated and result in full certification that's valid for two more years.

The Red Cross not only offers Honolulu AED classes for individuals, but we also deliver industry-leading AED training for those who work in healthcare. Whether you're a first responder, CNA, nurse or doctor, our training opportunities allow you to learn the latest information and proven techniques.

Through our special schools program, your faculty and students can learn how to properly use an AED, and be ready to help when every moment counts. School courses result in full two-year certification, and all participants will have access to our online refresher materials, which can help keep their skills sharp long after their AED training has ended.

The skills necessary for saving a life can easily be forgotten if you don't use them regularly. That's why, after completing our AED classes in Honolulu, you'll receive free online access to a range of refresher materials. With interactive quizzes, games and videos that you can use at any time during your two-year certification period, our refresher materials make it easy to keep your skills sharp and ready for anything.
