USCG only accepts CPR and First Aid certifications from approved training organizations that require a hands-on skills assessment. These are referred to as blended CPR courses.  In a blended CPR, First Aid, and AED course, you will complete the training and written test portions of the course online, which allows you to access your course from anywhere, start and stop the course at any time, and replay videos as needed.  Then, you will complete a hands-on skills assessment with a certified CPR instructor. At ProTrainings, our blended CPR courses are set up so that you can complete the hands-on skills assessment over a live video conference. Your evaluator leads you through those practical skills in the comfort of your own home or office at your chosen date and time.
