Basic Life Support (BLS) from the American Red Cross is designed for healthcare providers and public safety professionals and meets a variety of certification and licensing requirements. Our BLS curriculum includes all standard scientific learning objectives necessary in professional resuscitation courses, but also allows students to develop their critical thinking, teamwork, and clinical decision-making skills, and work on reflection and debriefing, which serves to strengthen their overall learning and work experience. In addition, our courses are modular and flexible, and offer medical directors, educators and Red Cross training partners the ability to tailor courses to their local protocols, and their students' specific needs.

Whether you want to be a lifeguard for a summer or a lifetime, the Red Cross can help. With our Alabama lifeguarding certification classes, you can learn how to prevent, recognize and respond to aquatic emergencies – and provide care when it's needed most. However, we also offer the opportunity to go beyond the basics, and take classes in water safety, aquatic instructor training, safety training for swim coaches, lifeguard management and more.
