Classes
for advanced life support certification are taught by the

day classes. Each course will be $200 per participant for
the regular course and $100 for the recertification course.
Course fees must be paid at two four weeks in advance by
cash, check or interdepartmental transfer. A textbook and
study guide will be required as part of the course. A fifty
dollar processing fee is required before textbook and study
materials will be mailed. The balance of $100 is due no
less than two weeks before course date. Cancellations must be
received in writing two weeks before the class to receive a
