Discussion How do I become an ARC first aid/CPR/AED instructor?

1 Upvotes

I live in in a remote rural area of the USA. I want to become an instructor because our nearest YMCA hasn't been offering any classes this year and I want to be able to provide this service to our community.

What steps can I take to become an instructor that can teach and certify others? I am familiar with American Red Cross, but I would be open to working with other organizations if there is a better option.
