CBRF Classes

• Standard Precautions, Fire Safety, and First Aid and Choking classes are online live learning. The state requires students to be on a device with internet access, a camera (turned on), and a microphone to visibly and audibly participate in the online live learning. Class meets in real time online so attendance is required for all scheduled hours of the class.
• Most CBRF employers require age 18+ to work as a resident assistant/caregiver. If you are under the age of 18 and plan to work in a CBRF as a resident assistant/caregiver, check with the CBRF employer prior to registering for a CBRF class.
• Your seat in the class is not guaranteed until your payer source is confirmed.
• Attendance is mandatory for all hours of the class.
• COVID-19 vaccine is encouraged, but not required to enroll in our CBRF classes as assisted living residences do not fall under CMS's conditions of participation.

Price includes $20 state registry fee and class materials.

• Standard Precautions Class $70
• Fire Safety Class $95
• First Aid and Choking Class $110
• Medication Administration and Management Class $195 (includes $20 state registration fee)

If you need assistance paying for the CBRF class, please consider the following options and resources:

• Your current or future healthcare employer may offer to pay for all or a portion of the class. Contact your employer prior to registering for the class.
• If you are a student, prior to registering for a class, contact your guidance counselor or program advisor to see if your school offers tuition assistance.
