We are committed to training anyone who is old enough to understand what the course teaches and is interested in learning how to STOP THE BLEED® and save a life.

This course generally takes no longer than 90 minutes to complete, depending on class sizes. The lecture portion generally takes about 45 minutes to complete, leaving the final 45 minutes for participants to learn and get comfortable with the use of the skills taught.

Can I set up a STOP THE BLEED® course for my school, church, company, or other community group?

Absolutely! We generally host small group courses regularly, however, if you would like to get a larger group from your organization to get trained we can travel to you and put on a larger class for everyone. We will offer this larger group class at a discounted rate for all participants, based on class size. Please send us an email at [email protected]  if this is something you are interested in.
