First Aid Training in Rhode Island

At the American Red Cross, we not only offer classes for those in every walk of life, but we also understand that everyone learns differently – which is why we deliver classes in a wide range of formats. This way, you can gain valuable skills and information in the way that suits you best. In fact, our Rhode Island First Aid training classes – and a wide range of other courses – can be taken in a traditional classroom setting, via online learning, or in our blended Simulation Learning format, which combines online coursework with an in-person skills session. Check our newest course listing for details, and earn the certification you need your way.

If full, OSHA-compliant first aid certification isn't important for your job, or you don't necessarily want to participate in an in-person skills session, then our first aid training online in Rhode Island may just what you need. Our online courses feature the same up-to-date, science-based information as our in-person courses, but instead of honing your skills under the tutelage of an instructor, your skills are developed through a series of interactive activities. Best of all, because these courses can be completed all in one sitting or over a period of several days, you won't have to adjust your schedule to accommodate your class – simply start (and finish) it online when it suits you best.

In Rhode Island, first aid recertification classes allow you to renew your skills, learn the latest techniques and can help keep your memory fresh – so you're prepared to help when it's needed most. Our abbreviated renewal courses are designed specifically for those with credentials that are valid but nearing their expiration. They take less time to complete than our standard first aid classes, but allow you to maintain your certification for an additional two years.

The benefits of learning first aid go far beyond having the skills to respond during times of crisis (though that is certainly the biggest benefit, and often the most significant reason people sign up for first aid classes in Rhode Island). In fact, your training can help you grow and develop in many ways. For instance, it can help you gain confidence, be better prepared as a parent, partner, neighbor, friend or co-worker, set yourself apart when applying for a job, inspire others to learn first aid, or even inspire you to delve deeper into medicine and volunteer for a new organization or change careers. Sign up for one of our first aid classes in Rhode Island and discover what it can do for you.

At the Red Cross, we believe that being prepared to help is important for everyone. That's why we offer first aid classes in Rhode Island that deliver the latest in science-based learning in a wide range of formats (online, in-person, and blended Simulation Learning). But we also know that if you don't use your skills regularly, they're easy to lose – which is why we not only offer online refresher materials with interactive activities that can help you sharpen your skills – but we also offer a free app that gives you instant access to information on handling the most common first aid emergencies. This way, you can review important first aid steps any time, and quickly look up how to provide care if you're unsure about what to do during an emergency.
