About Us

We are an Approved Private Postsecondary Institution.

 
Fast Response is an American Heart Association (AHA), American Safety and Health Institute (ASHI) and American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) affiliated training facility . We give CEUs to EMS, Nurses and Upper Level Professionals, and issue official certificates for most of our classes.

Our Phlebotomy Technician program is approved by the State of California Department of Health Services, and our Emergency Medical Technician program is approved by the State of California Emergency Medical Services Authority.

In addition to providing training at our school in Berkeley, we also provide training for hospitals, businesses, schools, community organizations, and individuals.

As a School of Health Care Education, much of our curriculum is approved by The Department of Health Services (DHS), California Laboratory Field Services (LFS), California Emergency Medical Services Authority (EMSA), and registered with The Bureau of Private Post-Secondary Vocational Education. To maintain this status, we must uphold the same standards as a junior college, University or Vocational School, but we can offer comparable training in a shorter period of time, providing you with superior training while you begin or augment your career in the medical field.

Fast Response is a fifty percent woman-owned business, with women and minorities making up the largest percentage of our staff. We are an equal opportunity employer, accepting and sensitive to the needs of diverse populations.
