Metro Atlanta Safety Courses
We offer a wide range of courses for individuals or for groups in the Atlanta area. Including CPR/First Aid and Fire Safety classes in Metro Atlanta. We have online and in-person options where we come to you. First Response has served Georgia for over 23 years.
Individual Training
We have a variety of options for individuals or small groups. You can either join the existing classes we have around Georgia and South Carolina or sign up for one of our online training options.
The online CPR course is blended, meaning the instruction is done online and the hands on portion is done at one of our skills checks. The online Fire Safety course is completely online via Zoom and does not require a hand on portion.
Group Training
For groups, we offer in-person training at your location, scheduled at your convenience. Morning, afternoon, evening, and Saturday sessions are available. The Metro Atlanta Area minimum to host a class is 8 on weekdays and 12 on Saturdays. Online training options are also available for groups.
