How do you become a self employed CPR instructor in SF bay area California?

In: CPR [Edit categories]

Answer:

These are some basic steps to follow on how you could become a self employed CPR instructor in SF bay area California.

First, determine what agency you want to become affiliated with, such as ARC and/or AHA. I know of instructors that teach for both the ARC and AHA.
Obtain your instructor certifications and authorizations.
Contact the ARC and AHA (see related links). Also, google for CPR schools in the SF Bay area. Ask if you can teach for them and what the pay is.
If you want to teach in the workplace, without sponsorship such as ARC or AHA, you will need to purchase mannequins, books, cleaning agents, breathing barriers, and other materials as needed. The mannequins and materials will cost several thousand dollars.
It will take a lot of work to establish yourself as a self employed CPR instructor. Good luck.
