This course is available to all registered girl scouts in Cadettes and up.
Girl participants must be at least 11 years old at the time of
the session and have a unique email address on their profile in
MyGS. It cannot be the same email address on the profile of the
primary guardian. This is the email address that will be used to
create an American Red Cross account to complete the online part of
the course. Please contact the Help Desk at the number below if you
need assistance in updating the email address for your girl participant.
Please bring a towel or mat and a water bottle. Also
bring a copy of your online portion completion either printed or on
your phone.
The online portion of blended learning through the American Red Cross website features adaptive learning with video based interactive scenarios. The online session introduces participants to the knowledge-based aspects of First Aid/CPR/AED as well as the skills they will practice and master during the skills sessions. Participants may complete an optional pre-assessment for each lesson and may "test out" of a lesson which can reduce seat time.
The online session ranges from 25 minutes to 3 hours and 30 minutes, depending on the results of each module's pre-assessments. Participants must be able to print or email proof of completion to the instructor. Proof of course work can also be shown to the instructor using your cellphone. The link for the online course work will be immediately available upon registration in the Additional Documentation when you select the event on the My Events page in your MyGS account.
The instructor-led skills session is designed to transition participants from the virtual setting of the blended learning online course to the hands-on skills required to demonstrate competency for certification. Your electronic certificate will be emailed to you by the American Red Cross within 2 weeks after the successful completion of the instructor-led portion of this class.
