The local American Red Cross offers a “practice-while-you-watch” instructional method that allows students to practice what they see, as they see it, instead of practicing skills after they have viewed the DVD segment.
It also offers on-site workplace training.
Call 704-633-3854 to receive more information and to register for a course.
Courses are held at the American Red Cross building located at 1930 Jake Alexander Blvd.,West. Cash, check or credit cards are accepted.
