UTD’s first aid, cpr, aed, o2 provider course UTD, in partnership with Dive 1st Aid, is presenting a First Aid, CPR, AED, and O2 Provider class, along with a First Aid Instructor Development Program. The class will be online mid February and the first IDC’s will begin immediately. Although First Aid is a required course for many UTD classes, including Rescue, Divemaster, and Instructor we have, until now, relied on outside agencies for this training. Bringing a First Aid course into the UTD course catalog rounds out much of this training, particulary for DM and Instructor. Dive 1st Aid is a leader in medical equipment supplies and education. Authored by Dive 1st Aid’s education department staff, this course covers, in depth, the skills and limits needed to be a safe first responder.
