Yup so they can charge you more money. But they claim the science has improved but surprises me how every 2 years science improves.

No, the CPR guidelines do not change frequently. Every 5 years, there is an international review of the science and experience with CPR. The change from single-person CPR ratio of 15 compressions/2 breaths to 30/2 was back at the 2005 review. The 30/2 ration was adopted at the 2005 review. The AHA endorsed this change in it's American Heart Association 2005 Guidelines for CPR and ECC. These changes got to the public CPR classes by ARC and AHA by 2006-2007. If your current EMT class is teaching something different, there is something wrong.
