FAQs

What if I’m already certified with Red Cross or another organization?: When it's time for recertification, you would need to take the full NSC class with us. SCDSS does not allow students to take the NSC recertification class if their existing certification is with another provider.
What if I’m no longer with an ABC site?: Non-ABC enrolled employees may take the class for a fee.
What if my ABC site is pending?: If your ABC status is pending, you can take the class free of charge.
