As part of the Nashville PAD Program's AED grant project, each location that is selected to receive an AED device is asked to select 4 to 6 persons to be the "intended users" of the device. These people are offered free CPR/AED certification training. The courses are either American Heart Association or American Red Cross training courses, led by Nashville PAD Program volunteer trainers.
To receive this training, your organization must first apply for and be selected to receive a Nashville PAD Program AED grant. Apply here.
