The trainings are scheduled for:
- May 31 (currently full, according to the Buda EDC website)
- June 2 (spots still available)
According to the event description, participants will learn how to respond to medical emergencies involving adults, children and infants. Topics will include cardiac arrest, choking, sudden injuries and illnesses.
The program stems from the Buda EDC’s Business Retention and Expansion department, which focuses on the success and growth of existing businesses. After hearing from local businesses about the need for CPR and first aid-certified employees during on-site BRE meetings, the EDC responded by launching the training opportunity.

Jacquie Martinez, Assistant Director of Small Business Initiatives at the Buda EDC, said the BRE program is designed to empower local businesses and strengthen the broader community through practical resources like this training.
“Offering CPR classes addresses a growing need in a variety of businesses to support workplace safety by equipping employees with life-saving skills,” Martinez said. “Businesses are better positioned to protect their teams, serve their customers and thrive long term.”
