You cannot find a better place to get CPR certified. I have gone to so many for so many years but I found this one about two re-certifications ago and will keep going back to them. It is comprehensive, concise and detailed but streamlined so you get all you need in about 3 hours. Also, I have only had great, experienced instructors to guide you through your education. They have all the supplies you need to do a hands-on simulation to ensure that should you be in that situation, you are in control. Thank you for another great experience and for keeping me going in my job! read more

Chris, the instructor knows his Sh&t! I, a paramedic myself was in a class with two Doctors, and 2 Registered Nurses. Chris is personable, knowledgeable, pragmatic, patient, has a good sense of humor, and a great instructor! I'm biased also as he is also a veteran. Chris was also able to infuse stories and tips of the trade to help my knowledge grow as a paramedic, and I am more confident and competent as a result. Keep this gentleman on staff! James read more

Express Training Solutions - Chris instructs - CPR Classes Near Me - Oceanside, California

BSL from AHA!!! This is THE place you need to come to get peace of mind when you need an official CPR training. Everything went extremely smooth from register for the class to having the certificate (virtually) in your hand. I appreciated receiving confirmation & reminder email AND a reminder text as well. The instructor (Zach) was awesome- easy to understand, informative, funny and he connected well with the class. Session went fast, we alternated watching film, listening to Zach and hands on practice... a short 5 min break was awesome as well. Place is super cleaned and was constantly sanitized. read more

I checked out the programs available very carefully and so glad I chose Express Training and the Oceanside facility. It's rare that anybody gets all 5 stars on Yelp and there is a good reason. Signing up for the BLS class was a breeze even though mine was more complicated because I had a different payer and also needed certain hours since I work full time. Everything went like clockwork with no problems from start to finish. The instructor, Shonn was excellent and committed to seeing that each person understood and was competent in learning the material and especially the practical part of demonstrating it. Even the location, across El Camino Real from Winco was perfect. You won't regret coming here to get the training you need with no hassle. read more

I took my hybrid BLS recert here and it couldn't have been easier. Chris was an awesome instructor. He went through everything with me to make sure I had it down and then coached me through the skills. Best place to take your BLS class. read more

Took the dreaded ACLS class with Philip today. It was informative, comprehensive and well received. Philip a seasoned medic taught the class, he knew what he was talking about and made it easy for the class to understand the rhythms and algorhytms that pertained for each treatment. I always take BLS and ACLS here. You are in and out with your cards with no stress. 10/10 every time read more

Best ACLS and BLS experience. Straightforward and excellent class. Thank you. Highly recommend for anyone that needs ACLS or BLS

Express Training is really great for last-minute certifications, and I got my certificate the same day. Leigh was a wonderful instructor for my BLS class. I highly recommend taking the class with Leigh and at this location in general. Easy sign up and class is very straight-forward. Thank you for a great experience! read more

This place was my saving grace to get my BLS/CPR card! I chose to do the hybrid/fast track option. It took about an hour and a half for the online class and then a few days later, after completing the online portion, went in person for the hands on skills portion. This was super convenient, especially being in a pandemic. Class sizes were small and we were still able to simulate different situations while still maintaining social distancing. Our instructor, Zack was super informative and made sure everyone was comfortable and stress free. Would highly recommend this place to my fellow health care providers in need of BLS certification! read more

I took a Basic Life Support (BLS) class here because I needed the card to be able to enroll in a college course. I was able to submit my card the same day with my college so I was able to enroll in my CNA course. Patrick was the one who taught my BLS class and he was awesome! Very funny and he made sure we had a good time and understood what we were learning. He's a great teacher! Thanks to this class and how quickly I was able to enroll and get my card I was able to get the last spot in my colleges next semester CNA course. I'm so grateful! Thank you guys so so so much! read more

Great experience overall. So easy to book my BLS recertification. Instructor John B, was amazing he made the class an enjoyable experience

Express training solutions made my BLS class fun and easy to understand. Daryl did an awesome job keeping me engaged during the lecture. Practicing with the manikins was a lot of fun and they had lights that helped you know if you were doing the compressions correctly. I've taken other classes where the manikins didn't tell you if the compressions were hard enough or if you were going fast enough. I've taken other CPR classes and this one is the best so far. The classroom setting had a/c, coffee and snacks. The instructor, Daryl, did a great job of preparing me for the test. read more

Express Training Solutions - BLS on a Friday - CPR Classes Near Me - Oceanside, California

What a great class! I enrolled in the BLS class (Basic Life Support) because the non health care profession cpr class was a different date and time I could not make. I was a little apprehensive as I have never taken a cpr class but it went by fast and very detailed! Daryl was a great instructor and really communicated with us and made light hearted jokes throughout class! The test at the end was easy and Daryl really made a point to let you know what was important to remember. Another thing I loved, is that Daryl offered the class to come back for free training if you wanted more practice. As long as a class he is teaching has room he said we could come back. That is such an awesome gesture! There was coffee and snacks too and at the end Daryl passed us little cards for reminders of renewal dates we could write in and also a 20% off code for any classes after this and it never expires! I would def. come back again!!! read more

Great BLS class! Needed it for my nursing school. I had John Blanton as my instructor and he was amazing!! Best BLS class ever !

Instructors are expert in the field. They are not intimidating which helps students learn in a very comfortable environment. read more

Patrick is a funny and competent teacher. Thanks for making BLS class (almost) fun Have been here for classes several times and the experience is always awesome. read more

Love ETS!!! Mostly because of the convenience of setting up the class you want online. They have a location off the 8 in SD if you are in a crunch and can't make the limited dates of Oceanside location. I don't have any complaints about the instructors. They are thorough and reasonable with your time. They are open to any questions even if you think it seems dumb. Make sure to study some prior to the class so you have a good grasp of the material going in. Everyone will lead an exercise during the ACLS and PALS which can cause some to be nervous but don't be. You don't have to know everything by heart and it's over in a short period. read more

Awesome place! Go here for CPR training! Daryl is an amazing facilitator, and I will always come back here for my renewals! read more

Express Training Solutions - Awesome place! - CPR Classes Near Me - Oceanside, California

I needed to get CPR and AED certification for my job, and I needed it ASAP since I suck at being an adult and doing things on time. So I fell upon this place through google/yelp. They have many classes as well as times and format of the classes. I choose a fast track class that allows you to do all your "book work" online and then go in for a. 1 on 1 skills testing. The online module didn't take long and was super easy to use. My trainer was Veronica and she was phenomenal. She made me feel comfortable and never made me second guess myself. She took her time to explain things and was super patient with me. I will definitely be coming back to this place for any further classes. The location is easy to find and the classroom had everything you needed to fully understand your course. Definitely a good spot to come and get trained. Thank you Veronica for the wonderful experience read more

Chris was our instructor and was really great! He made the class lighthearted and easy. Our class was 5 people and it looks like there was room for about 4-5 more. Booking a class was super easy online with so many open spots and I like that you're not fighting for a spot months in advance. The class was about 2.5-3 hours depending on how long it takes you to take the test so it was really quick for a CPR class. Got my card emailed to me at the end of the class! read more

Ahmed was my ACLS/BLS recertification instructor and he did a fabulous job! I was definitely rusty and he explained everything really well so at the end I regained a lot of confidence back. Thank you Ahmed!!! I will be referring all my friends who need recertification! read more

Express Training Solutions - Recertification time - CPR Classes Near Me - Oceanside, California

Fantastic program! I've been BLS certified for the past 20 yrs, and their program was by far the best one I have taken. I chose the hybrid option so I was able to review the material on my own time and own pace. The practical portion of the class was adequately paced and informational. My instructor Patrick at the Oceanside location was fantastic! I'll be recommending this program to all of my colleagues. read more

This was a great class with an extremely knowledgeable instructor, Chris. He inspired me to encourage my older son to continue with additional training. Thank you... read more

My career requires me to renew my CPR/BLS cert every two years. These classes tend to be pretty dry and boring. I really appreciated Daryl's approach to the class. He kept a pretty good rotation between the videos, instruction/lecture, and hands-on training. I work full-time, so a class at 9 a.m. on a Sunday is really convenient, not to mention their Oceanside location is about 5 miles from my house. I was greeted with a smile by Daryl when I walked in the door, and was offered water, coffee, and snacks. Whether you are renewing bi-annually, like myself, or this is your first BLS certification, I highly recommend taking a course with Daryl at Express Training Solutions! read more

I took this class today for BLS provider. I needed to complete this course for my medical assisting course. Daryl was very welcoming when I came in. He is friendly and offered snacks and beverages. I enjoyed learning in the class and Daryl's humor helped with not making the material feel like a drag when learning it early in the morning. He was very knowledgable about the information and good at answering any questions. I appreciated that the manikins had a light indicating if our compressions were deep and fast enough. The hands on part of the class really helped me retain the information. Thanks Daryl and Express Training Solutions! read more

Daryl, the instructor is very knowledgeable and patient. The course is fast, but i felt confident about the knowledge when taking the exam. I will most likely return to practice my skills when I get hired as a CNA. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place to coworkers and friends. read more

Thank you Express Training Solutions for a great experience for the kids!' read more

This was the best AHA BLS Certification course I've ever taken! My class was on a Monday morning and only had 5 people in it. We started on time and were done early since everyone was on task and our class was so small. Daryl was my instructor and he was AWESOME! He clearly knows his stuff and tried his best to make the class enjoyable. I will definitely be going back when I need to renew my certification in 2 years. read more
