Successful completion of hands-on skills testing is mandatory for OSHA first aid compliance. Students must show proficiency of skills learned through the online training program. Skill testing can be completed in about 2 hours. As a current NSC instructor you can register to offer skills testing to students who have taken the NSC First Aid, CPR & AED Online program and require a course completion card. There are no workbooks to purchase and you determine the fee you charge for testing.Â

Don't bring your laptop to bed: Balancing your laptop on your bed will cause you to hunch over and strain your neck, so leave it at your desk.
Choose the right ebook: If you're lucky enough to use an ebook in college, choose the edition that has the best ergonomic improvements and that won't cause eye strain.
As an NSC First Aid instructor, you not only get training materials, you also gain 24/7 access to administrative resources, product updates, a monthly newsletter and more.
NSC training focuses on hands-on practice and repetition, building more self-confidence so your students can perform well during an emergency.
No instructor restrictions - teach courses from other providers as well as NSC - get grandfathered in if you are authorized to teach first aid and CPR by another provider.
