DO YOU KNOW HOW TO SAVE A LIFE?
Campus Recreation is an Authorized Provider of the American Red Cross and offers a variety of CPR,AED, First Aid and Water Safety courses.
To Sign Up:
Scroll down to the class you are interested in taking and click on the link that says "Sign up". You may also sign up in person at the front desk of the Student Recreation Center. Please note- you are NOT officially signed up until you have paid; filling out the registration form does not save a spot in a class for you! Sign ups are closed 24 business hours before the start of a class.
To Learn More About Each Class:
Be sure to click on the "info" button next to each class for more detailed information. Some classes have prerequisites or precourse tests that you need to be aware of.
Location of courses:
Unless otherwise indicated under the "notes" section of each course, all classes are held in the Wet Classroom of the Student Recreation Center. Click here for directions to get there.

Wait List
If the class you would like to register for is currently noted as "Full" and you would like to get on a wait list, please click here to do so.
If there is enough interest in a class we can sometimes obtain a second instructor and increase the class size. If this occurs we will alert all patrons on the waitlist of the opened spots and the first patrons to sign up and pay will get in.
Additionally, if paid patrons drop a class we can also then notify the first person on the waitlist of the opening. They will then have 24 hours (or less depending on how soon the class is) to sign up and pay before we offer the spot to the next person on the list.
Here are all of the classes we offer:
