This class is for final year apprentices who will, as journey workers, soon be responsible for passing on their skills to new apprentices.  Developed by the Bureau of Apprenticeship Standards, this 8-hour course teaches soon-to-be journey workers how to serve as a mentor and job coach, how to provide hands-on skill training, how to give positive and effective performance feedback, and explores the characteristics of a positive and diverse work environment. Please note that this is a Blackboard online course. If you are not a current/former student of Blackhawk Technical College you will receive login credentials 3-5 days after registering. 

Please note that this class meets on Thursdays from 6-9pm and Saturdays from 8am-4pm. 

If you want to be Firefighter 1 State Certified, you need to take Firefighter 1 parts A, B, C, & Hazmat

Basic Life Support (BLS) recertification courses allow you to update your skills, refresh your memory and extend your certification by two years. Designed for those whose credentials are still valid (or within 30 days of expiring), BLS renewal courses make it possible to avoid a lapse in certification so you can stay certified and stay on the job.

This BLS course trains healthcare workers and other personnel to promptly recognize several life-threatening emergencies, give high-quality chest compressions, deliver appropriate ventilations and provide early use of an AED. 

Group Dynamics is a Wisconsin highway safety initiative aimed at assisting first-time OWI (operation while intoxicated) offenders in changing their impaired driving behavior. This course consists of a minimum of 21 hours of interactive education. Students receive information about short- and long-term effects of alcohol and other drugs, alcohol concentration and impairment and Wisconsin OWI-related laws and penalties. Students also complete a Personal Change Plan to help them avoid future problems with impaired driving. The emphasis of Group Dynamics is on education and changing impaired driving behavior, not on the treatment of addiction.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE: Failure to attend ALL class sessions or being late will result in forfeiture of your entire class fee, and you will be put in non-compliance with the WI Department of Transportation.

You must have an assessment completed prior to taking this class.
