This is a one-on-one session with a Red Cross-certified instructor which can offer same-day BLS certification. The purpose of the Basic Life Support Challenge course is to give experienced individuals the opportunity to demonstrate knowledge and skill competency outside a formal class setting. Preparing for the testing scenarios and final exam is the responsibility of the participant. The participant is responsible for being familiar with the contents of the current course participant manual (provided upon enrollment). The challenge course option is available to experienced individuals with a current or recently expired (no more than one year) American Red Cross Basic Life Support certificate (or equivalent). Those without a certificate may not participate in the Challenge course option. They can only participate in a full course. Participants may only attempt a challenge course one time, with a single opportunity for remediation (written exam and scenarios). If they do not pass both components of the challenge course (written exam and scenarios), they may be referred to a recertification course, but participation in the full course is preferable. They should not be allowed to attempt a challenge again. A $75 non-refundable deposit is required upon enrollment. The remaining $30 is paid in-person upon passing the challenge course. In the event a participant fails the challenge, no additional payment is required.
