About Us
About safety training pros
When an emergency happens, there isn’t time to second-guess yourself.
At Safety Training Pros, we exist to help people respond with clarity, confidence, and practical skill when it matters most. Our training is built for real situations — not checkboxes, not lectures, and not one-size-fits-all programs.
Since 2011, Safety Training Pros has delivered thousands of safety courses across Northern California.
We provide urban, aquatic, and wilderness safety training for businesses, outdoor organizations, schools, and public agencies throughout Northern California. Our courses focus on hands-on practice, realistic scenarios, and decision-making in environments where stress is high and resources may be limited.
training built for real life
Emergencies rarely look like the textbook.
That’s why our programs emphasize:
- Hands-on skill development
- Scenario-based learning
- Clear assessment and decision-making
- Adaptability to real environments and real people
Whether we’re teaching CPR in a workplace, water rescue skills at a pool, or wilderness medicine in the field, our goal is the same: help participants leave knowing what to do — and confident they can do it.
What We Do
Safety Training Pros delivers specialized safety education through three core service areas, each designed to address the unique risks of different environments.
- Workplace CPR & First Aid Training: We provide CPR, AED, and first aid training for businesses and organizations of all sizes. Our workplace programs support safety compliance, emergency preparedness, and employee confidence through hands-on, on-site instruction tailored to real workplace scenarios.
- Wilderness First Aid & Wilderness Medicine Training: Our wilderness programs serve outdoor enthusiasts, guides, educators, and professionals who operate far from immediate help. These courses focus on patient assessment, risk management, and decision-making in remote and resource-limited settings.
- Lifeguard & Aquatic Safety Training: We offer training for lifeguards and water safety professionals focused on prevention, recognition, and response in aquatic environments. Programs emphasize teamwork, situational awareness, and effective action under pressure.
Experience that shapes our standards
Since 2011, Safety Training Pros has delivered thousands of safety courses for businesses, schools, outdoor programs, and public agencies across Northern California.
The organization was founded by an educator with decades of experience in emergency medical training, wilderness medicine, aquatic safety, and disaster response. That background continues to influence how we design curriculum, select instructors, and deliver training that prepares people for real situations.
We develop and maintain our own wilderness medicine curriculum and deliver nationally recognized programs through partners such as the American Red Cross and the Health & Safety Institute. Our instructors bring strong field experience and teaching skill, supported by consistent standards across all courses.
In 2020, Safety Training Pros expanded its wilderness medicine programs through the acquisition of Foster Calm Wilderness & Leadership Training, a respected leader in wilderness safety education since 2001. This integration strengthened our curriculum depth while preserving a strong focus on experiential learning.
Who we serve
We work with organizations that take safety seriously, including:
- Businesses and employers
- Outdoor and recreation programs
- Schools, camps, and youth organizations
- Public agencies and community groups
Our clients value training that is practical, respectful of their environment, and designed to prepare people to act responsibly when they’re needed.
