My sister and I wanted to get recertification on our First Aid/CPR class since ours expired years ago. Our instructor was Curtis. Right off the bat, you can tell he was going to be a cool and laid back teacher. Curtis is a professional and was professional in this course. He made sure that before we moved on, that we were confident in what we just learned. Any questions we had, he took his time on answering it. We never felt rushed. Curtis also had a great sense of humor because I was struggling on tying a certain knot. I didn't know the class was watching me struggle. As I tried my hardest to mimic Curtis' knot, Curtis jokingly said, "I'll be grading you on your knot." I would have failed. Great course! Highly recommend! read more

I have done CPR/FirstAid/AED training 2 times before (this was my third time) and I can honestly say that this was the best training I have ever done! Not only did I learn more in this training, but it was more enjoyable and a better use of my time (didn't drag on). The best part was that this was a hybrid course and I completed the majority of it online first - it is official Red Cross online training (you can even go back and access it later if you want as a refresher). The amazing part about it being online was the online training was very informative - it was very simulation based (like a video game) where you had to assess the situation and make different choices. I learned more this way than I ever did before because it was actually practical knowledge that I got to apply. Then by the time I attended in person we went over everything we learned online using the in person training aids (mannequins, AEDs, first aid bandages/wraps, etc.) and that was such a great reinforcement of what I learned online that this time the knowledge really sunk into my brain and I feel more confident knowing the skills than I ever have before. Also, in person the trainer, Brenden, was very entertaining and such a wealth of information. In addition to the training, he shared with us real life examples and stories to add to our knowledge which was very helpful. Because it is Covid, we wore our masks the entire time, sat 6 feet apart and had our own materials to work with (we didn't share and we didn't work with a partner). I felt super safe and I learned a lot! I highly recommend Key CPR to everyone! It is sooooo much better than other programs I learned in the past! read more

Went here to get re-certified for my Job. I can honestly say this was the best CPR class I took. It was hands on and to the point. There is an online part that has to be completed before class that takes about 2 hours. And in class it's about 2.5 hours but it goes by fast! I would recommend coming here 10/10 Definitely coming back in 2 years to re-certified read more

Great CPR class Brenden was a great instructor! I highly recommend this place ! Booking was easy and the online part was a great way to get ready for the hands on class ! read more

I really enjoyed todays CPR class. I feel like I learned alot and Brenden was Amazing! Thank you and ill be back!

I was told I needed to take this instructor course, but found out I didn't need to take it. I found this out over a month prior to the class and they refused to refund my $350 for the class. Very disappointing! So, basically I'm $350 out, and have no options. They weren't willing to make any exceptions! Not good costumer service at all! read more

Scam artists. They take your money, even if you're sick, can't get a sitter, have a change of plans, or are late to class. They claim you can reschedule with an email but they never respond. Hope they sleep well at night knowing they are thieves that took money for a service they didn't perform. We were certified thru another company for only $15 total so do your research on pricing. I wouldn't recommend doing business with a company that ignores customer emails and doesn't offer rescheduling services......obviously life happens. They just want your money. read more

This review is solely based off my experience with Brenden's customer service as I did not get a chance to participate in his class. I only bought his course because my 8 month old baby almost choked and left me traumatized. I went on Google and found all the 5 star reviews and decided to purchase his class. My scheduled date was for 5/28/2021 at 9:30am and I was eagerly anticipating this day. I rushed out of my house that morning and left my baby with a baby sitter. When I arrived Brenden asked for my completion of the online portion and I had NO clue that I had to take the online course beforehand. I never saw the email with the online course link until after Brenden mentioned it to me. It was in my spam folder. The only email I ever saw was the reminder email. He said I would need to reschedule and I was bummed, but there was nothing much that I could do. He sent me an email that night and it said that I needed to pay $45 extra to reschedule. Below the Reschedule/Transfer policy it shows $25. Not sure why he would charge me $45. Anyways, I did ask him if he could please waive the $45 since it wasn't my fault that I didn't see the email and to be honest it is a high fee. If I had knowledge of the online course beforehand and I didn't take it then I would accept the $45, since it was my fault; but since I didn't see that email with the online course link, I honestly thought I would have to take it after the in person class. He denied my request of waiving the fee after I explained all that I am writing here. If it was the $25 fee like mentioned in his policy, then I wouldn't mind. It sucks that I had this experience. I really had my hopes high for this place. I also paid $15 for the First Aid Kit. I am hoping that I at least get my money back for that. read more

enrolled in the hybrid Adult and Pediatric First Aid CPR class and was super satisfied with the whole experience. the online portion was actually pleasant to take and the in-person portion was a nice way to practice the skills we learned virtually. the instructor, Brendan, made it enjoyable and the time actually flew by. FYI we took this class while 28 weeks pregnant so that we could be ready for any emergency. loved that it focused on adult and infants because we now have a very well-rounded education. highly recommend!!! read more

Great class. Group was small to accommodate with Covid. Everything was very clean. Short class but Brenden covered it all!! read more

I had a BLS class today with Brenden. Wonderful instructor , the whole course ( online and in person ) was very well and informative. No complaints. read more

Just finished a CPR instructor course and I would never go anywhere else. After having disappointing CPR classes elsewhere (instructors did not seem to care or have any passion about what they were teaching) Brenden blew me away. This man cares about what he teaches and it shows. He takes time, encourages learning and makes sure you are comfortable actually knowing the skills before you leave. Also the classroom is ultra clean, he takes COVID protocols serious, clean equipment to use. 10 out of 10 read more

Amazing Class! I look CPR/First Aid/AED and I was more than satisfied with my experience. The online portion is interactive and simple to complete. Brenden was my in person teacher and he was fantastic. Very helpful and answered all of my questions. I can't recommend Key CPR enough! read more

This company is really effective! First of all I loved the online learning, it helps prepare you for the class time, it helps you retain the information you need to know, and its very straight forward and easy to move through. The material is covered in a series of interactive videos which repeat important information that will be critical to saving a life, if you should ever be in a situation where you need to save someone. Being in the classroom for an hour and a half went very quickly, and the class mannequins help you put the online skill videos to use, and give you the confidence you'll need to implement the CPR protocols. This was worth every penny, and Brenan the instructor was terrific, he kept the class informed, moving, and added life experiences to help in some critical situations. I definitely recommend this school, I chose the first available which landed on my birthday, I have no regrets! It was a great way to start the day. read more

Curtis was our instructor today. My wife Katie and I have been certified for over a decade and we re-certify every two years. This was the best class yet! Curtis' real world experience in emergency situations is helpful with learning and remembering the importance of these skills and being able to handle yourself under pressure. He is great with feedback on live skills and giving pointers on how to react in real life situations. I highly recommend this company and especially this instructor. If I needed CPR, I would hope it is done by someone trained by someone as qualified as Curtis and his staff. COVID-safe as well! read more

Brenden did a wonderful and thorough job of reviewing all the information for infant, child , and adult first aid, cpr, and add. The class size was small; a very good refresher class. I would definitely recommend this class and instructor! Michelle S. read more

I am a healthcare worker that requires active CPR certification in order to work & with the COVID 19 pandemic, it was extremely difficult to find a certification class. Key CPR was one of the few places with ongoing classes and they were very mindful of precautions to keep everyone safe and healthy. The classes were limited to 6 people and PPE were provided. Brenden, the instructor, was great! He covered all the pertinent information and kept the class moving and was professional and friendly! I would definitely recommend Key CPR to others! I was extremely happy to find them providing service during this really trying period! Thank you Brenden and Key CPR!!! read more

I took the BLS with Brenden as my instructor, and he was extremely detailed and amazing when it came to teaching!

I would recommend this class to anyone needing to be certified whether its a renewal or a beginner like myself! read more

CPR class with Brenden was a breeze! We even got out early since we were such a small class. I'd come back by re-certification.

This was a great, informative class. I had never had any CPR training and Brenden explained everything really well for those of us experiencing this for the first time. read more

I've been to many CPR places and Brendon shows that he knows the details of his craft. Out of 16 years as a medical practitioner this was a pleasure to be at! read more

I took the CPR/First Aid course last week with Brenden. He was a great instructor and presented the material in a very engaging manner. The room was clean and organized and had everything that we needed to succeed in the five hour class. I would highly recommend Key CPR for anyone that is considering getting their CPR/First Aid certificate. read more

I had Brenden as my cpr instructor and he was amazing. I was very nervous taking the class but he made the whole class feel really comfortable. He gave real life scenarios and experiences to help you understand and put it in perspective. He always went around to help, check and made sure you were doing the procedures right before moving on. Honestly, just like everyone else has stated I highly recommend taking it here. Brenden lives up to the expectation and Im sure every instructor that teaches this class does as well. read more

Easy to use website. Competitive price for CPR/First Aid/AED. Instructor Brenden was great. He knew how to make the material engaging and was able to answer all my questions. Would definitely choose them again. read more

I did my BLS Training (hybrid class) here. Online class is easy to navigate. Instructor on our hands-on training is Brenden which is really good with direct to the point approach and really easy to understand/follow instructions, not a wasted minute in this training and covid-19 precaution is being implemented at all times. I really like this class/training. read more

Great course, great instructor, great customer service. I've taken these required courses many times over the years and this was the best one. I highly recommend Key CPR. You won't regret it! read more

Loved the class, very insightful. Our instructor Brenden did a great job at keeping BLS a valid and worth while certification.

Highly recommend taking this course. Instructor is very informative and helpful, willing to answer any questions and continually ask if there are any questions. While there are completely online options elsewhere, this class is better as you get to actually practice with real dolls. This training is meant to help you train to save a life so why not actually get some real practice. I left feeling confident I can help someone if needed. Before attending you do an online training then come in for some more training. They are very flexible in scheduling. Location has ample parking and is easy to get to. 25 minutes drive from Long Beach down the coast read more

Brenden is an amazing instructor who provides clear and concise instructions on all things related to CPR/First Aid. I feel much more knowledgeable and confident in assisting people in their time of need. Overall, I highly recommend KEY CPR. Thanks again, Brenden. read more

After researching numerous BLS training facilities who offer certification via The American Heart Association or Red Cross, I chose Key CPR for numerous reasons. They are certified through Red Cross, offered a hybrid class (online/in class) and had an open class within the timeframe I needed. The online lecture was very informative, easy to complete, no glitches and allowed for you to complete at your own pace. After completing the online lecture portion, I attended an in-class session. My instructor was Brenden and he was very informative, provided a comfortable atmosphere and always demonstrated every procedure. He gave continuous positive reinforcement and ultimately gave me the confidence needed in order to assist people in their time of need the most efficient way possible. I honestly highly recommend Key CPR Training facility for anyone who is looking to obtain their BLS certification. read more

Brenden our instructor was very informative and kind. Definitely recommend to anyone looking to get certified in BLS and anything else!

I took my BLS(CPR )in person class from KeyCPR and my instructor was Curtis and I must say it was a good decision to get my Certificate through KeyCPR we get to learn on mannequins for both adults and Infants the whole chest compressions,AED placement and ventilation.The best thing we got to practice for a good amount of time also everything was explained very thorough and Curtis has been really nice and was making sure everyone takes their time to practice and learn.I will get re-certified for sure in future through KeyCPR. read more

Amaaaazing experience. Brenden is very professional and caring. Will def go back for other certificate

I took the part online, part in-class course. The cost was great and the in-class session was only about an hour and a half. The in-class session was the hands-on portion. It was awesome to take the class this way because it saved time and money. I had Brendan as my in-class instructor. Brendan was fun, engaging and happily answered all of my questions. He was very knowledgeable and informative. Overall, the class was a great experience and I feel ready to use my life saving skills! read more
