When I was finishing up my SSI React Right Instr. course I knew that SSI was changing to Media First Aid. I'm just curious if anyone here has taken that course or is an Instr? What do you think of it?

Thanks

I'm an instructor for several FA/CPR agencies but not MFA. I've looked over the new materials for both consumer and instructor and I didn't see anything wrong with the protocols or the course structure. They're ILCOR compliant, have a proven track record as a training agency and offer decent support to their instructors.

PADI dumped them but I think that was a move driven by cost-savings (and just possibly institutional arrogance) and wasn't in the best interest of the students or the instructors.

Thanks - the kind of opinion I was looking for.
