What an amazing CPR Training with instructor Rob Vires!! My wife and I needed to attend CPR training in order to become adoptive parents. We didn't expect much from the CPR portion...but we were wrong. The class could not have been more informative. Rob was fun, personable, and full of life. In addition, Rob and team at HopeCPR give $$ back in support of people with cancer. Beautiful to see a company like this flourish. Keep up the good work y'all. read more

This class was awesome! Rob was very engaging and I feel prepared for an emergency situation.

We had very good experiences in the past with HOPE trainers coming to our school to train our teachers. Thank you for all you do! read more

Rob does an excellent job! Each year he presents CPR for all the preschool teaches I work with. We always appreciate his patience!

Took the class with Rob last night. He was great! The class got super informative but Rob managed to keep it light and not over complicate what he was teaching us. There were dummies to practice on and I learned how to stay calm and administer cpr if and when necessary. read more

After having witnessed my son have a near drowning experience, I felt helpless and ashamed that I did not have the proper knowledge for administering CPR. I knew my son's daycare offered CPR classes once a month at the school after hours so I jumped on signing up soon after. Rob was our instructor and he was very personable and kept the class moving at a good pace without ever glazing over any topics. All his explanations were easy to understand and relatable (the pace at which you pump/thrust on the chest is the same beat as 'Stayin' Alive' by the Bee Gees). I didn't even know that the class included 'First Aid' instructions, but we got that added bonus. I feel confident and equipped with the knowledge I learned at Rob's class if ever an incident were to arise. If you are thinking about signing up for CPR classes, please sign up for HOPEcpr. A portion of the fees goes towards a good cause for helping cancer patients pay expenses for treatment and any other things that may make their treatment and recovery process less stressful(H - Help, O- Others, P-Pay, E-Expenses). You can tell Rob is very passionate about his classes and the cause. If you want to get certified in CPR and First Aid while contributing to a great cause, please check this group out! read more

Had a great class with Rob as our instructor. He was personable, funny, and answered every question we had with example situations as well. I was able to speak with him before class started and got to know him, and he was just absolutely wonderful from the get go. Best part of information, a portion of all their profits go to a a charity foundation. If you need to take cpr, or just want it for your own personal reasons, definitely take it with this company read more

Fantastic class! Very funny and good communication! Glad to have had the opportunity to take the class and get educated on a very important subject. read more

Excellent CPR class , I have taken many cpr classes and I really recommend HOPE cpr Teacher was knowledgeable , made it easy to learn and a great experience read more

I needed to take a CPR certification for our foster process but was very nervous about picking a class. Based on recommendations, I went through HOPE and could not have been happier. Something that can be scary and overwhelming was easy, even.... fun! I would highly recommend this course to anyone needing certifications or a brush up! read more

If you need to learn CPR, definitely go with HOPE CPR. First of all, a portion of the proceeds go to a charity that helps cancer patients & their families with expenses. Secondly, instructor Rob is a great guy. He has 22 years of experience as a firefighter and he uses actual stories from his life to make various points throughout the class. He allows the class to set the pace, so you don't feel rushed. And he's goofy & funny in a way that puts you at ease. I especially appreciate that he let us come up & practice on the dummies during a "break." So I didn't feel like the entire class was staring at me, which would have made me nervous. It was a great experience, overall, and I left feeling confident. read more

Need to take a CPR class for work or just because? Look no further because this was by far the best one I've taken!! Very informative and the speaker went over the necessary techniques multiple times so it became drilled into our heads! He answered all questions thoroughly and he made it interesting to learn! The best part of this organization is a part of your payment goes to charity! Great story behind this organization too! read more

Took a CPR class today from Rob Vires with HopeCPR. Excellent, practical instruction from a fire fighter who is passionate about health and safety. If you need to get certified, this is the way to do it! Just 2 hrs and I feel empowered to help when the situation arises. read more

This CPR and First Aid course was amazing! Rob made learning entertaining while presenting the information in a way that I'll remember what to do when someone's life is at risk. He has many many years of experience as a firefighter saving people's lives and he was able to answer every question from the students in my class. I highly recommend HOPE CPR. Also, some proceeds go to a great charity! (look on the website to read their story) read more

I attended a HOPEcpr class taught by Rob at my church on Monday night. He was extremely thorough and also funny. He kept the class interesting even though it was 2.5 hours long. He answered everyone's questions honestly and fully. I like that he talked about the emotional and legal aspects of performing CPR and not just how to do it. I do feel confident in my abilities to perform CPR or first aid on someone now, which is important to me as a public school teacher and a church nursery volunteer. read more

After many CPR classes over the years, this by far was the BEST! Very welcoming, entertaining as well as informative. Will definitely use HOPEcpr in the future! read more

Concise, simple, and even a bit entertaining. I highly recommend!

BEST CPR TRAINING EVER! This was probably our 10th CPR training that my husband and I have taken over the years, and we both feel it was the BEST. Instructor was extremely knowledgeable, which made the class go by fast. Tons of useful information, delivered in a clear, concise manner. I would strongly encourage EVERYONE to take 2 hours to invest in educating yourself how to save a life. I cannot imagine anything worse than having a loved one suffer a heart attack and standing by helplessly, not knowing what to do. With this training, you can very possibly save a life. And on top of all that, to learn that a solid 10% of the money they receive goes towards Cancer support, it is truly the BEST CPR training in Austin!! read more

This company should get so much more than 5 stars! This was hands down the best CPR/First Aid class I have ever taken. Rob was not only extremely knowledgeable, but so funny and really just made everything feel natural with the way he taught. The thing that stood out the most was his heart. You can tell that this is his passion and it shines through his teaching. HOPEcpr will always be the place I recommend. They are part of an amazing organization donate part of their earnings to the HOPE fund at Texas Oncology. I just can't express enough how wonderful the experience was that we had taking the class. I highly recommend you find out for yourself! read more

Really great class and very reasonably priced. Rob Vires is a great instructor. He moves through the material at a comfortable pace, adding comments and advice gleaned from years as a fire fighter. We had lots of time to practice and ask questions. I enjoyed so much, I'm arranging for my high school Girl Scout troop to take the training as well. On top of all this, they give a portion of their profits to charity. I highly recommend! read more
