Sid and I rounded out our annual training requirement with CPR/First Aid/SIDS/Shaken Baby syndrome. The group that performs these training classes focuses on the Daycare market (daycare employees are required to have bi-annual certifications that are kept current). So we went to a local school and joined their session. It was quick, convenient and affordable.
I'm trying to arrange a similar training session at work but I need CPR/First Aid/AED (defirillator) and Bloodbourne Pathogens. The price according to the American Red Cross (for 14 employees) is $1400, the price from LifeQuest is $330. The American red Cross class also takes 10.5 hours as opposed to 3.5 hours for LifeQuest. The difference in lost time to the company for the additional seven hours of training is another $4900. Now I have to decide if it's worth it to the company to pay the extra $5970 to not have it say anything about serving the daycare industry on the cover of the handouts.
