My wife and renewed our required First Aid/CPR and AED certification by taking Kevin's training…read moretoday. Somehow he's made it even more enjoyable and faster-paced than two years ago. He has such an easy and clear manner in teaching his class. What both impressed and surprised me is how certain CPR instructions have changed in the past two years. Kevin gave detailed instructions even in where/how to stand next to someone having a cardiac or choking event, where to position legs and feet and where to put the cellphone (on speakerphone) next to the victim for talking with a 911 operator. Kevin's trainings are replete with stories about calls he's been on in the past year or so and the specific reasons why some of those calls had happy or tragic endings. The expanse of his knowledge on his subject is breathtaking--so he's the right guy to be teaching this class! Also, we've been to CPR/First Aid certification training that dragged on and on. Kevin's class flies by while ensuring we all have not only gained or refreshed knowledge but had that right amount of hands-on practice. He covers so much in his 3-hour training that it's best to just take the class to discover all it encompasses. And--Kevin? See you in two years, my friend.

This is the second time I have taken BLS for Healthcare providers from Compressions for life. I've…read morebeen an ACLS and BLS provider for 30 + years and this is the best BLS class I've taken. Kevin Bernt is an excellent instructor. He's well prepared, class is efficient and organized. He explains concepts clearly.

I had a great late night class at this location renewing one of my certifications. The facility is…read moreclean and has several bathrooms, coffee and tea, and good acoustics. The breakout rooms were nice and perfect for larger groups. We had a pretty small group and were able to get at lot of individualized attention and help. Several students shared experiences and asked questions and our instructor, a paramedic, was great about going through the scenarios and making them learning experiences for all of us. He also shared some really interesting stories and how he handled them. The mega codes went well and we all worked as a team to get through them. The exam only took 30-40 minutes and was around 50 questions. Overall it was a great class and I was happy I chose this later time slot to get my renewal out of the way.

The first day they had us in and out in under 4 hours, not six. The second day the megacode practice was a joke. The "practice" actually turned out to be the test portion, which everyone passed, again, without really learning or doing much of anything. During written open-book testing it was noisy chaos, with people lining up to do CPR recert after, and chatting away.
