CERT Training Begins Tonight

Here is your opportunity to become a trained member of “CERT," the city's Community Preparedness Program.

Participants in this 20-hour series of classes will learn how to be part of neighborhood response teams, cross-trained in basic emergency skills.

Each class emphasizes skills that will be practiced during a hands-on session at San Bruno Fire Station No. 51, which is located at 555 El Camino Real.

Today's session will focus on gaining knowledge about disaster preparedness.

All classes are free and will be held at the San Bruno Resource & Recovery Center, which is located at 458 San Mateo Ave.

The Skills Development & Application session will be held from 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM on Saturday, Nov. 3 at Fire Station No. 51.

Participants are encouraged to wear comfortable shoes and clothing to the last class.
