See What Our
Students
are Saying
Over the past 15+ years, we are grateful to have trained & certified countless individuals who are now ready to respond when it matters most. Here’s what just a few of the most recent had to say:

The best CPR class I've ever taken! In the past, renewing my certification was a nightmare. I dreaded the class because they were so boring, and after 10 minutes, the speakers had already lost me and I actually felt like I didn't learn anything. Vickie's class was so different; she's a great public speaker, relatable, and funny while making you feel confident and ready for anything. The time goes by fast, and while I hope I never have to actually use my newly acquired skills, I am ready and know what to do without fear!
— Maria A.

Wow, Vickie is AMAZING! She is so personable, knowledgeable and most of all passionate about what she is doing! She made the class fun and entertaining with her wonderful sense of humor and I actually was sorry to have it end. She takes time to talk directly to you, answer questions and help in any way. I highly recommend attending this class with Vickie so that you and your loved ones are prepared in an emergency situation.

She was an inspiration, she makes you feel like you are welcomed in a judgment free zone. She makes me want to take a class to become an instructor. She kept our attention the entire time. Makes you want to help someone and to not be afraid. The information was clear and easy to understand and remember. I learned so much just from this one class and will definitely be referring my colleagues, friends and family! WTG Vickie!
