CERT Training Opportunity – Dates Updated

By Kristan on January 25, 2012

The University District is heading up a new CERT training class, beginning February 2nd and running through March 15th and has generously invited residents from Cooper-Young to also join in the CERT training!. It will be held every Thursday at Buntyn Presbyterian Church from 5:30 – 7:30 pm. 

This is a great opportunity to become CERT trained, especially if you cannot make the time commitment of the all-day Saturday class the CYCA usually organizes. It’s also a wonderful way to partner with a neighboring community to make Midtown and Memphis a safer, more emergency ready city!

To learn more, please visit the University District page.  You may email Andrew at E-mail hidden to prevent spam or contact Kristan at 272-2922/E-mail hidden to prevent spam to reserve your spot .
