Then for the unit they sent me to Red Cross Lifeguard training taught by the Red Cross in berlin (interesting, it was in a Olympic practice pool, from the Berlin games! Anyway, got into Red Cross training and for the next 6 years taught Lifeguard, then CPR and of course in the army I learned first responder.
Point is that there are many 1st Responder Red Cross and CPR training that you can attend for fairly cheap and gets you started.

Located in Marysville so trying to keep it somewhat close if possible. Looks like Norpoint has a class listed in their training section but nothing on the schedule in the near future and I have not heard back yet on when they may offer it again. Thank you

Sometimes this email works better when contacting Norpoint than their site page:

For tacmed TCCC is probably online. If you leave out administration of needle decomp and NPAs, you can learn/practice with TQs on yourself/good buddies...which will do you no good unless you carry at least one at all times/places.
Step one in tacmed is stop the maker of holes in people from making anymore holes. You'd better practice this as well.
