  1. I would like to hear from our fellow EMT's and paramedics that teach CPR and/or First Aid in Australia. I was wondering how the market is for CPR and First Aid in Australia (or any other country for that matter). I currently teach all kinds of safety classes here in the U.S. and have the opportunity to get more work than I could handle alone. I started the business by using the program at www.cprcash.com, Are there alot of people that require CPR in Australia? What do you charge on average per student? What occupations are required to be CPR certified in Austrailia? Is the market saturated with instructors? Thnaks for the response. If the numbers sound good, maybe I'll open a satellite office there! lol!
  2. Although there are manikins out there that are much higher quality, the "alien" manikins will do just fine. I would not spend the money on the expensive ones until you have the profits rolling and business is good. Just some food for thought; depending on who you instruct through (ARC, AHA, etc) they actually have regulations on which manikins that you can use. ARC actually has a list published that specifiies the brand and model of manikin that is approved for their courses. The "alien" model is not one of them. I doubt anybody would call you on it, but just be aware of the fact. If you are just starting out in the business, I highly suggest you read "Safety Training for Profits". It has a ton of invaluable information on how to make money teaching CPR and First Aid. Alot of businesses do this but if you want to be highly profitable, its a must read. You can find it at www.cprcash.com . Its a cheesy website but the book is great. Best of luck to you.
