What ProTrainings does

ProTrainings, LLC is a privately held, US-headquartered (Ada) online training company founded in 2002 that delivers CPR, AED, first aid, and adjacent safety and healthcare certification courses to individual consumers, businesses, and educational institutions. The platform is built around video-based self-paced coursework with three delivery formats: fully online, blended (online plus in-person skill evaluation), and traditional classroom training, supported by a certificate validation portal for employer verification. The product catalog spans standalone CPR, CPR plus first aid, healthcare-focused BLS, ACLS, PALS, HIPAA compliance, Pet CPR, Fire Safety, Hazcom, Bloodborne Pathogens, Anaphylaxis, Sexual Harassment, and Continuing Education certificates, plus a free CPR program for high schools and a dedicated business/corporate division for group training.

The company monetizes primarily through course fees and subscription-style recurring revenue from individuals and groups, with one-time license revenue from train-the-trainer instructor programs. Its go-to-market combines a self-serve product-led platform, an instructor/skill evaluator network, a direct enterprise sales motion, and an own-storefront e-commerce channel, with marketing driven by SEO, content, social media, weekly refresher emails, and earned media. Operations span the United States and the United Kingdom through a dedicated protrainings.uk domain, and named enterprise customers include Norton LifeLock, Pentec Health, Farmers Insurance, Nike, Choice Schools Associates, and Goodwill, alongside a long tail of individual course buyers and a community program partnering with hundreds of high schools for free CPR training.
