Learn about the annual UC San Diego CPR & AED training.
EH&S offers training throughout the year to help students, faculty and staff become proficient in administering cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and using an automated external defibrillator (AED).
These lifesaving techniques are useful in an emergency situation since the average response time for first responders ranges between 8-12 minutes. For each minute delayed, the chance of survival reduces by approximately 10%. CPR and AED training takes a few short hours to learn, giving you the skills necessary to help save a life.

Learn how to respond to a sudden cardiac arrest using hands-only CPR from professional first responders. Get hands-on experience with our practice mannequins. No CPR cards will be issued.
Each session is made up of three half-hour sessions:

- How to use an automated external defibrillator (AED)
- Question and answer

Revive & Survive San Diego Initiative
Revive & Survive San Diego is an exciting new initiative that aims to save lives by training 1 million San Diegans in hands-only cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). This novel partnership between the UC San Diego Herbert Wertheim School of Public Health and Human Longevity Science and the County of San Diego Emergency Medical Services creates an opportunity for partners across the county to build a coalition of lifesavers.
