Certified Instructor Training
CPR, AED & First Aid Certification
Hands-on CPR, AED, First Aid, BLS, and Advanced First Aid training for workplaces across Pennsylvania and all 50 states. Group on-site training available — we come to you.
Why CPR & First Aid Training Matters at Work
Every year, over 350,000 cardiac arrests occur outside of hospitals in the United States. When CPR is performed immediately, survival rates can double or triple. In a workplace setting, having trained employees on every shift isn't just good practice — for many industries, it's an OSHA requirement.
OSHA's First Aid standard (29 CFR 1910.151) requires employers to ensure that adequate first aid is available in the absence of an infirmary, clinic, or hospital near the worksite. In industrial settings, mines, and remote locations, that means having employees trained and ready to respond.
Anthony's Training Center offers hands-on, instructor-led CPR, AED, and First Aid training — not an online video. Your team practices on mannequins, operates real AED trainers, and works through realistic workplace scenarios. We serve Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio, and all 50 states with on-site group training.

Who Needs CPR & First Aid Training?
All Workplaces (OSHA Requirement)
OSHA requires employers to ensure adequate first aid is available. For many workplaces, that means having trained employees on every shift.
Healthcare & EMS Providers (BLS)
BLS certification is required for nurses, EMTs, medical assistants, and other healthcare providers. Our BLS course meets current AHA guidelines.
Industrial & Mining Operations
Remote or hazardous worksites — mines, construction sites, manufacturing plants — need workers trained in Advanced First Aid when EMS response times are long.
Schools, Gyms & Public Venues
