The red cross is best starting point. They train usually provide training to the public. Unless you are going through the first responder class or EMT basic training I am doubful they offer training to the general public.
Your local capter of the American Red Cross can help you out.

The American Red Cross here in my area cahrges $20 for the class. They say it is for "the training & certification" materials. Personally, I've been CPR Qual'd for close to 30 years, but now that I'm retiring, I doubt that I'll get "recertified" for legal reasons. That doesn't mean that I won't stay up on the latest changes, but I don't need the card to do what I know how to do.

I have been certified for quite a few years but just looked an saw that my certifacation is expired. I have a friend who is a paramedic and instructor, think I just may give him a call.

I recertified just before my twins were born on January 2000. Thanks for the reminder Greywolf, definitely a skill that needs to be kept current. It would be terrible to fail to 'make the grade' when needed.

I was always under the assumption that the card is what saved your hide if something happened. I believe it was under the Good Sam law. I could be wrong. You should go get the qualification Irish, you know never know when or if it could come to use. As for the qual and card, Uncle Sams Navy requires me to have it!
