STEP TWO: In-Person Practice/Skills Testing

Contact the Division Chief of EMS via Email to schedule in-person practice/skills testing >>

Students who have completed the online course portion will be able to print a certificate needed for STEP TWO which is an in-person skills test with an AHA Certified Instructor.  You must bring a printed copy of your online completion certificate to the appointment as the skills session is unable to be conducted and a card cannot be issued without this certificate.  Certificates from the online course should be dated less than 60 days from the date of the in-person skills practice and testing appointment.

Each session must be scheduled, is 30 minutes long, allows for an initial Q&A/practice session, and concludes by demonstrating the skills learned.  Testing is held at the Brownsburg Fire Territory Headquarters located at 470 East Northfield Drive in Brownsburg, Indiana 46112.

The fees for the skills practice and testing sessions are:

Heartsaver courses...$25.00

BLS for Healthcare Providers...$10.00

Payment is payable by EXACT cash or check only and due at the time of the appointment.  Checks should be made out to "Brownsburg Fire Territory."  We are unable to accept debit or credit cards for CPR appointments.

The American Heart Association (AHA) strongly promotes knowledge and proficiency in all AHA courses and has developed instructional materials for this purpose.  Use of these materials in an educational course does not represent course sponsorship by the AHA.  Any fees charged for such a course, except for a portion of fee needed for AHA course materials, do not represent income to the AHA.
