Description
What bloodborne pathogens training covers
The listing lists four areas: how an Exposure Control Plan works, universal precautions, correct use of personal protective equipment (PPE), and post-exposure evaluation procedures. The course follows the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, which requires annual training for employees with occupational exposure. The class is about one hour long, so it fits into a normal working day.
Who needs OSHA bloodborne pathogens certification
Any employee who could reasonably be expected to contact blood or other potentially infectious materials at work falls under the standard. The listing is aimed at employers who need to show compliance. The CPR1 page adds an important detail: the one-hour session meets OSHA requirements when combined with site-specific instruction, so your organisation still needs to cover its own exposure control plan and procedures.
Add-on course, not a standalone
All three pages describe this class as an add-on designed to be paired with CPR/AED & First Aid or Fire Extinguisher training. Booking it on the same day as a CPR class is the normal pattern. Group sizes are up to 10, 12, 15, 20 or 25 people.
Certification
The CPR1 pages state that completion gives each participant a one-year digital certification issued through HSI. The listing does not currently mention the certificate, which is a gap to fix. A one-year term matches the annual retraining rule in the OSHA standard.
Who teaches it
CPR1 instructors are certified and many come from fire, EMS and healthcare backgrounds. Training is available in all 50 states, and CPR1 is part of the AED Leader family alongside CPR1.
OSHA bloodborne pathogens training cost in 2026
At CPR1 the course is $200 for up to 10 people, $240 for 12, $300 for 15, $400 for 20 and $500 for 25 (checked 19 October 2026). CPR1 shows the same prices. Online bloodborne pathogens courses in the search results cost far less per person, but they are not instructor-led and do not include the site-specific element; the value of this class is the live instructor on your premises on the same day as CPR training.
Frequently asked questions
Does this course meet the OSHA bloodborne pathogens training requirement?
The curriculum follows OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.1030. The CPR1 page says the one-hour session meets OSHA requirements when combined with site-specific instruction, so your employer must still cover its own exposure control plan. Annual retraining is required under the standard.
How long does the bloodborne pathogens certification last?
The CPR1 pages state that participants receive a one-year digital certification issued through HSI. That lines up with the OSHA rule that exposed employees must be retrained every year. Book the class again before the twelve months are up.
Can it be booked on its own?
All three pages describe OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens as an add-on to CPR/AED & First Aid or Fire Extinguisher training. The pages do not say it is sold as a standalone class, so ask CPR1 if you only need this session. Most groups book it on the same day as CPR.
How much does OSHA bloodborne pathogens training cost?
At CPR1 the class is $200 for up to 10 people and $500 for up to 25, with tiers at 12, 15 and 20 people in between (checked 19 October 2026). CPR1 lists identical prices. Both stores ask you to contact them for groups over 25.
