(Edit 18/5: Updated information)
Updates
- Application process
- One member of a group will download & fill the form on the website requesting for group class.
- Schedule
- Preferred schedule will be up to the group members and will be specified/written down on form.
- Availability
- Unfortunately, the earliest available schedule for the group class is only after September. I don't know why it takes too long, I hope I did not misunderstand anything.
- Continuing Education Fund
- No.
- CPR-AED Card
- Certificate only. No card, again I hope I did not misunderstand.
- Class structure
- I asked if they taught theory/writing, practical/action. The guy said "no writing - it's practice" So I guess they would be teaching how to do it in a practical way. Again not 100% confident with the answers.
Conclusion
- I may opt for another organization (Macau Freediving Association) for the CPR-AED course since they are available as early as next week and only require minimum 2 people. I will post more details below for reference.
- So consider this thread closed. I will not be pursuing a class from Macau Red Cross for the CPR-AED course since their availability is only after September for the English version of the course.
- I will leave this post up for information/reference for people who would like to do this course in the future.
Option 2
CPR-AED Certification Course (Macau Freediving Association)
- can be taught in English
- Minimum 2 people
- 9 hours
- 1,300 MOP
- They state certificate is internationally recognized.
- Also, cannot use Continuing Education Fund.
- Availability: at the moment, they state they can offer class as early as next week if group members are confirmed.
Disclaimer: I do not receive any benefits or incentives from this post. I just want to make others life easier by spreading the word. Since it is difficult to find courses or educational content in Macau that is taught in English.
Edit: More details added.
Edit 18/5: Schedule & process added. I called them earlier today. I inquired as best as I can but as a disclaimer, I am not always confident of the information due to possible barriers in our communication.
