On-site Go-Kit session
We bring the skills station to each facility or a central location and check staff off individually.
Government & public safety
Keeping non-medic public staff certified, on a schedule you can audit
Parks, libraries, public works, transit, courts, recreation and administration. CPRCL certifies municipal staff through AHA-aligned online coursework plus an on-site skills check, and issues individually verifiable AHA eCards you can produce on request.

Everyone assumes public safety is covered. Public safety isn't the gap.
Your firefighters and paramedics are certified — that's their job. The exposure sits with everyone else the public actually encounters day to day: the recreation center front desk, the library circulation staff, the parks crew, the transit operator, the clerk at the counter.
These are the roles that are physically closest to the public, often working alone or in small teams, frequently in buildings with an AED on the wall that nobody has been trained to use.
The two problems that make this hard for public employers
01
Staff complete the coursework on their own schedule.
Official AHA-aligned modules, done between shifts rather than in a booked-out training day.
02
We run a one-on-one hands-on skills check.
The Go-Kit opens on a table, a mat or the floor — adult and infant manikins, bag-valve masks, and live compression-rate feedback on a tablet.
03
Each person receives a nationally recognized AHA eCard.
Issued individually and verifiable, with a roster of who is current and renewal reminders for what is coming due.
Dispersed sites. A mid-sized city runs dozens of buildings — city hall, five parks facilities, three libraries, a transit yard, a public works garage. There is no single training day that reaches all of them.
Records that have to survive scrutiny. Public employers get asked for documentation by risk management, by insurers, by councils, and sometimes through records requests. A photocopied class roster is a weak answer.
CPRCL addresses both. Coursework is completed individually online. We bring the skills station to each site or to a central location, and every person receives a nationally recognized AHA eCard in their own name, with a clear issue date, verifiable online. Not a roster — a record per employee.
Two ways to certify your team
License packs across departments
One purchase, drawn down by any department at any CPRCL location, including seasonal hires.
Group pricing starts as low as $99 per person for on-site certification and $89 per person for bulk license packs, with volume discounts that scale with your headcount. Get your custom quote →
Courses that fit public roles
| Course | Who typically needs it | Renewal |
|---|---|---|
| Heartsaver CPR, AED & First Aid | Parks and recreation, library, public works, facilities, transit, clerks, administration, code enforcement | Every 2 years |
| Heartsaver Pediatric First Aid CPR AED | Summer camp, youth recreation and after-school program staff | Every 2 years |
| BLS Provider | Staff in clinical or health-department roles | Every 2 years |
Every course ends in an individually issued AHA eCard with a clear issue date and course level, verifiable online.
How agencies typically structure it
Buy once, deploy across departments.
Redeemable license packs are drawn down by any department, at any CPRCL location, rather than each department running its own procurement.
Certify by facility.
Cover every building that has an AED, then expand.
Absorb turnover and seasonal staff.
Assign licenses to summer parks and recreation staff as they onboard, not on a fixed class calendar.
Stagger renewals deliberately.
Two-year cycles mean you can smooth the workload rather than recertifying three hundred people in one month every other year.
Making your public access defibrillation program real
Most municipalities have installed AEDs across public buildings. A PAD program is only as good as the number of people on site willing and trained to open the cabinet. Certification is the difference between a program that exists on paper and one that functions on a Saturday afternoon at a rec center.
On procurement: we work with purchase orders and can supply the documentation your finance and risk departments need — scope, unit pricing, and a per-employee record of certification. Tell us how your agency buys and we'll fit it.
Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on the role, the state, and local policy. Requirements are common for recreation, aquatics, youth programs and staff supervising the public. Many agencies certify more broadly as part of risk management and their AED program.
