Description
My wife signed up for a CPR class in order to fulfill a requirement for her nursing program. She found this company off the American Heart Association webpage and we paid the price of the class. After signing up she received multiple spam texts from the company (with varying grammatical errors) prompting several red flags so we looked deeper into it. We found multiple accounts of other healthcare workers reporting this company and mentioning poor training conditions, no actual training, no hands-on experience due to a virtual ZOOM instructor or little to no other students attending, and threats to pursue criminal legal action against students asking for refunds. We also found a news article (dated May 2025) and a BBB scam alert (Jan 2025) warning of this exact training site. They denied my request for a refund of course so I have come to terms with losing the money. However I cannot place my trust in a service that claims to provide a AHA accredited lifesaving certification while at the same time threatens its students once they realize it's a fake training site.
