Taking set-up/clear-up and travel time into account, attending one community session may take 2-3 hours of the Instructors’ time.  The number of sessions our Instructors’ attend varies greatly but we do hope you will be able to attend at least one session per month.  To maintain sector skill standards, it is a requirement that you attend a minimum of 6 sessions per year.

One of the important roles you will play as an Instructor, is promoting the Heartstart training session to organisations within your local area.  In addition, our office will contact you with requests we have received, to ask for your availability to attend as an Instructor.
