We were unable to schedule CPR classes after the Orientation session this year.  FSCJ has 4 CPR courses coming up in the next month or so.

These classes are offered at three different FSCJ campuses. Follow this link to select a course that fits your schedule. Directions for registering for these CPR classes are linked to the right.


Important - Make sure that you complete a Continuing Workforce Education (CWE) application at https://apply.fscj.edu for Summer 2023 prior to registering for an FSCJ CPR course.
