The County of Los Angeles
Fire Department is hosting a
free-hybrid Community Emergency
Response Team (CERT) training class on Saturday, April 12, and Sunday, April
13, 2025.
Open to everyone 16 years of age and older, the CERT program prepares volunteers to help triage patients in the event of a disaster until first responders arrive to provide advanced care. Each individual will receive in-depth information surrounding disaster preparedness and hands-on training in basic disaster response skills. These skills include, but are not limited to, fire safety, search and rescue, team organization, and disaster medical operations to keep you, your family, and our community safe.
Interested participants are required to complete an independent-study online course prior to registering for the in-person hands-on training sessions. To complete the CERT online training, visit Be Ready – Train CSTI (csod.com). If you need assistance registering for the online course, please email CERT@fire.lacounty.gov.
Once you complete the online Hybrid CERT training, please email your certificate to CERT@fire.lacounty.gov.
Due to limited space, those interested are encouraged to complete the online training as soon as possible!
