Certificates
St Mark James certificate cards are given upon successful completion of the training program. Wall mount certificates are also optional, should the student request them. Recertification programs for level C and HCP are available for the renewal of expiring or near-expiry certification. These programs last four hours and are held twice a week.

Private training is also available, usually taken by big groups of trainees or companies. Instructors with hourly rates are also available for booking for training at home or for special events.

Did You Know?
Pulse check
Things to remember:
Pulse checks are usually not advised to be performed if you have ascertained that the victim is unresponsive and isn’t breathing. Untrained rescuers just try and wake the victim and just check for breathing and start CPR in their absence. However, trained rescuers can check for pulse BUT NOT LONGER THAN 10 SECONDS. If you can’t find it within 10 seconds, start cardiopulmonary resuscitation immediately.
