The Board of Certified Emergency Providers (BCEP) is committed to providing emergency preparedness, first aid, CPR, AED, and emergency response training programs designed to meet applicable federal workplace training requirements while emphasizing hands-on competency, practical application, and real-world preparedness.
BCEP programs are developed using current evidence-based practices and are structured to support employers, organizations, and individuals seeking high-quality emergency response training for workplace and community environments.
Our training is designed to align with applicable Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) training requirements related to first aid, emergency response, and workplace preparedness.
OSHA requires employers to ensure that adequately trained personnel are available to render first aid when medical facilities are not in near proximity to the workplace.
BCEP First Aid, CPR, and AED training programs are designed to support employers in meeting this requirement through comprehensive instruction and hands-on skills evaluation.
OSHA requires that personnel with valid first aid training be available at construction projects where immediate medical care is not readily accessible.
BCEP emergency response training programs are designed to support compliance with these requirements while addressing the unique hazards found in construction and industrial environments.
BCEP believes emergency response skills must be demonstrated, not simply reviewed. Training programs incorporate practical skill evaluation and instructor observation to verify competency in life-saving techniques.
OSHA does not approve, endorse, certify, or recognize specific commercial training organizations. Instead, OSHA evaluates training programs based upon:
BCEP is committed to maintaining training programs that meet these performance-based expectations.
Unlike many traditional emergency response programs, BCEP places special emphasis on emergency preparedness within high-hazard environments. Training content is designed to address real-world emergencies that may occur in these settings.
BCEP regularly reviews and updates its training programs to reflect changes in regulations, industry best practices, and evidence-based emergency response guidelines.
All BCEP programs are developed using current evidence-based practices to ensure training reflects the most effective life-saving techniques available.
Our goal is to provide practical, professional, and effective emergency preparedness training that supports workplace safety, regulatory compliance, and community readiness.
