The City of West Hollywood is offering free American Red Cross CPR/First Aid/AED certification training on Saturday, October 5, 2024, in the Fairfax/La Brea Room at the West Hollywood Park Aquatic and Recreation Center, located at 8750 El Tovar Place adjacent to West Hollywood Library.

Participants can choose between two sessions: a morning session from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. or an afternoon session from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Space is limited and expected to fill quickly. To enroll, use the City of West Hollywood’s “ActiveNet” online reservations system. Registration with ActiveNet is required and takes about one minute to complete. Limited parking will be available for participants at the West Hollywood Park Five-Story parking structure at 625 N. San Vicente Boulevard.

The American Red Cross certification will cover adult and pediatric CPR/First Aid/AED topics, and participants will learn how to respond to medical emergencies. Prior to the in-person training, participants will complete an online learning session that takes approximately 2.5 hours. The in-person training will include reviews and tests that will take about 1.5 to 2 hours per section to complete certification. The online learning link will be sent seven days before the in-person session, and all online coursework must be completed before the training day.

Once the class reaches capacity, community members are encouraged to join the waitlist by emailing wehoaquatics@weho.org or calling (323) 848-6538. Additional certification training sessions will be offered in the future.
