Course Information
One of the many life-changing services we provide includes a weekly CPR certification class. This course teaches you how to recognize and treat life-threatening emergencies, including sudden cardiac arrest and choking for adult, child, and infant victims. You also learn how to perform quality CPR using a barrier device and how to effectively use an Aed (Automated External Defibrillator) through hands-on training and classroom lecture.
Our class is held on the first and third Wednesday of the month in the Big Room at the Presidio location. It is taught by certified Sports Basement employees who are truly dedicated to sharing their knowledge with you.

Frequently Asked QUESTIONS
Please read below to find the answer(s) to your question(s).
CPR is sold out, how do I sign up?
CPR classes are released to Eventbrite periodically. Normally on the first of the month, we release all the classes for that month (We release August classes on August 1st). We try our best to maintain that schedule, but sometimes life just happens and we appreciate your patience. Please note that the capacity is limited to 10 attendees and there is a high demand for affordable CPR/Aed certification. For best results, we highly recommend you to check the Eventbrite page on the first of the month. How do I sign up for the waitlist?/Can you add me to the waitlist?
If there is no option to add yourself to the waitlist that means the list is already full. We will not add more. If someone cancels, the first person on the waitlist will be alerted and have only 1 day to confirm their attendance.
I need my certification Asap. What can should I do? We recommend checking upcoming CPR event pages to add yourself to the waitlist or check with our Bryant Street location for available dates. If your situation is time sensitive, there are also many other SF organizations providing CPR certification that may suit your schedule.
Can I drop in?/An employee said I could drop in?
Please do not drop in unless you are given explicit permission through our CPR coordinator. We would like our waitlisted folks to have the next best opportunity. If you drop in without permission, you may be turned away at the door.
I signed up, but now I can't make it. How do I cancel? You can cancel your ticket order in the "My Tickets" section of Eventbrite. at sb.cpr.pre@sportsbasement.com . What if I am running late? If you are more than 15 minutes late, you will have missed too much material and time in order to receive certification. If you arrive after the 15 minute cut-off time, you will not be admitted into the class. Please sign up for a date that will allow you to come on time. Note : Registration Fees Are Non-Refundable And Non-Transferable.
