First Aid Classes in Fairfax

When you take first aid classes in Fairfax from the experts at the American Red Cross, we can help you learn how to provide care when it's needed most. Training takes just a few short hours, and after successfully completing the class you'll receive a two-year certification.

Our Simulation Learning courses are designed for those who want the convenience of online classes, the confidence that comes with hands-on experience, and full certification. After signing up for one of our blended Fairfax first aid classes you simply need to complete the online coursework, then demonstrate your skills to a certified instructor. Once both sections have been successfully completed you'll receive full certification that's valid for two years.

Whether being certified in first aid is critical to your job or you're simply a good samaritan, it's important to know that your Red Cross certification is only valid for two years from its award date. However, with our convenient, abbreviated recertification classes, it's easy to renew your skills, refresh your memory, and maintain your credentials.

By doing so, our instructors make it easy to understand the differences when providing care so that you can help each person according to his or her needs.

Because children and infants require special care during times of crisis, our first aid classes in Fairfax include detailed information on helping kids who are sick or injured.
