Training is offered at Campus Recreation and on a regular basis. Classes may be scheduled by making arrangements with the University Recreation Fitness Center, Assistant Director, Suzann Hensley at 372-6211.
The Department of Environmental Health and Safety is assigned responsibility for the regular maintenance and inspection of AEDs.
