Our Story

Built to make life-saving skills accessible to all.

Roberts CPR Schools was founded on a simple belief — that anyone, with the right training, can save a life.
What began as a mission to bring high-quality, hands-on CPR training to healthcare workers has grown into a full-service safety and compliance training center serving thousands of professionals, families, and businesses across NJ and NY.
Every course we teach is grounded in the calm, methodical discipline of a first responder — because when seconds matter, confidence and technique are everything. We don’t just hand out cards; we build capable, prepared people.
Today, more than 10,000 students and 1,000 businesses trust Roberts CPR Schools as their American Heart Association training partner.

Training Philosophy

Train the way you'll respond.

Our philosophy is simple: certifications are only as good as the skills behind them. Every class is designed for real hands, real pressure, real outcomes.
Hands-On, Every Time

You will touch a manikin, use an AED, and rehearse until it's second nature. No lecture-only classes.

Scenario-Based Practice

Real-world emergencies — cardiac arrest, choking, drowning, pediatric response — practiced under realistic pressure.

Small, Focused Groups

Personal attention with instructor feedback so nobody leaves with a card they can't back up.

Confidence Over Cramming

We build muscle memory that holds up when adrenaline hits, not just knowledge that fades after the exam.

Community Impact

Training the people who show up first.

From hospital hallways to daycare classrooms, we help entire communities become emergency-ready.
