Imagine a major earthquake just hit the Bay Area. Would you be prepared to help your family and your neighbors? There is a training program to help you get ready. It’s called Community Emergency Response Team (CERT). The next CERT Academy will be held at Campbell Community Center beginning January 15.

Over three weeks, you will receive 21 hours of classroom and hands-on training from the Santa Clara County Fire Department. Topics include damage assessment, fire suppression, search & rescue, medical triage and more. For specific details and registration, click CERT Academy 2019. Cost is $35, which covers equipment you will receive in training. Please register today, as seating is limited.
