Free Emergency Reponse Training in Altadena

The County Fire Department is offering a three-course training session for anybody interested in becoming certified in emergency response training.

Residents who wondered during the wind storm how they might fare if a more serious disaster occurred will now have an opportunity to receive training in emergency responsiveness.

The County Fire Department is holding a free three-class session for those wishing to receive Community Emergency Response Training (CERT), a certificated program that helps train residents in fire safety, first aid, search and rescue techniques and more.

The courses will be from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on January 21, January 28, and February 4.  Participants will need to attend all three sessions to get certified.  The classes are held at the community building.
