In a larger class, I definitely wouldn't have had that experience especially since I'm usually shy about asking questions. Yolanda was great as well. She scheduled me for a class quickly and even followed up afterward to make sure I received my certification card. Bonus that the class was only $49, compared to another agency I was looking at that charged $90. Overall an 11/10 experience!!

While Southwestern College offers a diverse range of degree programs, their admissions process is…read morelacking. Communication is terrible, often delaying the ability to register for classes or even make a counseling appointment. Unlike other colleges I have attended where to be a transfer student is a simple handoff with realistic processing timeframes with transcripts and responses, the staff at Southwestern College do not answer their phones and take weeks to respond via email with often misinformation. I submitted my transcripts March 15th, and emailed the counseling office to request for an appointment for an education plan. It took them 2 weeks to get back to me only to say they must be evaluated first. Reasonable, although other college allow you to book a general appointment so they can clear your prerequisites to at least register. I email the evaluations department which another 2 weeks go by with them saying that they can't view my transcripts and to contact admissions. I then proceed to email admissions for them to say it takes 4-5 weeks to upload my transcripts. At this point I'm absolutely astounded by the amount of inefficiency at this school. I have been to various community colleges and never had this amount of difficulty to just to enroll so that I may be able to register for the Fall semester. Finally, I received notice after a follow up email that my transcripts are visible and to contact evaluations for review, which I do, and they verify they can view my transcripts and will take 4-5 weeks to process, but to contact the counselors office for an education plan. I finally get through via telephone only to be told I cannot set up an appointment until my transcripts are evaluated. I can't even drop in for a general appointment so that I may register or clear prerequisites. I have never had this experience at other colleges and now contemplating if it's even worth continuing because if this is reflection of their school that promotes opportunities and resources, how am I to have trust that their will not be constant roadblocks in the future, pawning me off to be someone else's problem in another department. If you really want to transfer to this school, I suggest starting 6 months in advance and prepare to be going around in circles like a carousel.

This class went over first aid and CPR, mainly the basics given a certian situation. Since all situations will be different being able to recognize some signs we're helpful. The instructor Tricia was expressive and engaging, the 4 hour class flew by quickly with an information dump of how-tos, both in video format and with partner demonstrations. There were room for questions after each section and each answer was informative. Luckily they provide a take home manual that summarizes the slides you'll be going through if you forget. Bring snacks and drinks (closed tops/bottles), as you'll get breaks in between, though they do offer some for sale. Overall great class and definitely recommend it either for a first time, refrehser or if you need the most basic form of certification.

However, the computer was monitoring me and giving advice that was super helpful. I believe that my favorite thing about Surefire would be the convenience, there are multiple locations in San Diego and they are offered at by the hour. There was a link that had videos of someone else practicing CPR on the mannequins, which was super helpful- on that same link showed a video of instructions on how to enter the building. Once I arrived to the room, I turned the light on, wiped down the mannequins with a sanitizer wipe, and then logged into the computer. You're given multiple attempts to pass, and it will give you advice on how often you should compress/ventilate, when you switch, and how deep your compressions should go. I would recommend this experience to anyone.

I was sent a few videos with tips for passing the skills check and clear instructions on how to get to the location/suite. Despite there being no instructor, the location feels very safe and there are so many instructions posted that one would know exactly what to do to pass their skills check and in a timely manner.
