Wow... this was a tough 4. 5 stars for the First Aid/CPR/AED class and the instructor, Matt Brady…read more 3 stars for their administration and process. And because the 3 burned so much of my time, I had to pull my overall down from a 5 to a 4. Course - I've been certified FA/CPR certified for 18 years with AED added on in the last 5. This renewal, I decided to try a different educator. There were some updates and changes to best practices, which were highlighted throughout. Classes had a good blend of video learning, hands-on practice and validation, and live lecture with Q&A. Solidly 21st century. The instructor was engaging, had lots of personal experience, and had a great energy. It's the best I've had so far. There were a couple of small points missing that gave me pause, and I brought them up during the first aid part. Small but important things such giving lots of ice-cold water or sports drinks to someone in heat exhaustion or heat stroke can be very detrimental if they are very dehydrated (from vomiting to even sending them into cardiac arrest). Oh, and the Hillsboro campus has a single-serve, custom-grind Aramark coffee maker... super sweet! 5 stars. Challenges/lesson that may be helpful: Admin - CTC is a DBA, so there will be a discrepancy between your bill, the training provider, and the certifying authority. By the time I called, the booker said the Portland class I was hoping for wasn't available anymore. Instead she suggested a similar class at the Hillsboro location. I didn't know where that was but she said it would be on the receipt. It wasn't. The desktop site is much more functional than the mobile app, so don't rely on it. Google maps couldn't initially find it the Hillsboro training location. Instead it pointed to a nearby Hillsboro fire station. I pinned the company and address, so maybe that will improve the score so it shows up for others. Here's by biggest admin thing - So by default you apparently get an eCard. That's fine. What is not mentioned is that there is a whole long legal-ease agreement with privacy policy by the AHA that is over 3,600 words. Really? I've never had to do anything so ridiculous to get proof of my training completion. It took another hour on the phone between calling both the AHA and CTC to arrange to have a card mailed to me. Too much time. Next time I'll know better.

I don't have a clue how the American Heart Association (AHA) feels comfortable with her teaching their BLS, CPR, and AED material. First, Linda has no regard for others time. The class was supposed to be MAX 4 hours, and she was rushing to get us out of there after 5 hours because she had another class coming in. She took all the time in the world to say whatever irrelevant stories she had to say, only to rush us through the hands on portion of it. I learn quickly, but I ask a few questions for clarity (e.g. where do you check the pulse on an infant?) and she was very aggressive and condescending in her responses. She had a lot to chat about with the one doctor in our class, taking up everyone else's time. It seems she wishes she was a doctor herself. She was dismissive of the nursing student in my class and completely condescending towards me. I have been CPR certified before, so I kind of know what I'm doing to begin with. I couldn't imagine her teaching someone who was totally new. Finally, she has you buy a book prior to the start of the class that you don't even open once.

We were made to purchase a $20 book as well but ended up not even needing to open it once. The instructor was extremely abrasive and yelled at students constantly. I understand 100% that CPR is so important but she would literally scream at people for no good reason. If you did one thing wrong, she would glare at the student and yell at them loudly in front of everyone. It was honestly extremely embarrassing and I left that class not feeling I learned anything and that everyone in that class was made to be a fool. Linda was extremely rude and made her class all about her own opinions on drugs and rarely spoke of actual proven science. I would not recommend this class to an enemy.
