Student CPR is a program designed to incorporate CPR into high school curriculum on a large scale while overcoming the time and cost barriers with which schools are often faced. This is done by replacing the conventional classroom-based CPR course with an e-Learning course. This less expensive and more flexible option allows students to learn CPR from home or from a computer lab while allowing them to grasp concepts at their own pace.
Each school then has the option to add a hands-on component, in which the student’s cognitive knowledge is evaluated on a manikin by a trained skill evaluator.
Educators are provided the tools to monitor the online CPR course as an assignment. Teachers and administrators can view completion and test scores and even order cards all from a single online dashboard.
Training of skill evaluators, training on the system, and follow-up service are all included so that implementation is fast and easy. As the name implies, this program is completely free. The only possible expense results from the addition of the hands-on component.
