We offer all four core Community-Based Residential Facility (CBRF) training courses mandated by the State of Wisconsin, delivered live via Zoom by our certified instructor, Cynthia Allen-Lowe, who brings over 25 years of nursing experience. These courses—Standard Precautions, Fire Safety, First Aid and Choking, and Medication Administration and Management—are based on curricula developed by the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay and approved by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services. Successful completion ensures compliance with state regulations and qualifies caregivers for inclusion in the Wisconsin state registry.

$250 for Medication Administration
$100 for Standard Precautions
$100 for Fire Safety
$100 for First Aid and Choking
Or purchase all four primary courses together for $450 (save $100).
Class Requirements:
Classes are instructor-led and held online in real time, so attendance is mandatory for all scheduled hours.
UW-Green Bay requires students to use a device with internet access, a functioning camera (turned on), and a microphone to actively and visibly participate in online classes.
UW-Green Bay requires students to submit a copy of their driver's license or state photo ID before their name can be added to the State Registry. This requirement ensures proper identification and must be completed through the student account portal prior to your first training session.
To pass each class, participants must score 90% or higher on the post-test, as required by UW-Green Bay rules and state regulations. One retake is allowed per class; failure after the second attempt will necessitate retaking the class.
Our courses are open to anyone interested in working in Wisconsin’s CBRFs or assisted living facilities. Employers are also welcome to register their staff for training to ensure they receive quality instruction.
