In what format: Hybrid (online didactic coursework with hands-on skills competency) OR traditional classroom based models for the full training. Online only is NOT accepted. Changes take effect when: For new students matriculating (or new employees starting contracts) FA20 and continuing students/employees whose certifications expire in the FA20 semester or beyond Why this change: to allow greater flexibility in accepting CPR certification that conforms to recognized guidelines; to allow greater flexibility in acquisition of the credential; to recognize shifts in the WNY medical community in allowing certification from major providers meeting guidelines and using more online tools.
