I am a CPR instructor and the certifying agency (American Heart Association) charges people who want to be CPR certified. I teach those who would like to learn regardless of the fee because everyone should know how to do it.

Once someone of equal or higher training arrives, you can be released of responsibility. If you want to incorporate CPR into your classroom education (and bravo for doing so - we could use a few more MILLION teachers like you), try contacting the American Heart Association using your school administration approval. How do you get that?... how about setting a meeting with them and, at the same time, inviting the media to cover it? You'll get positive coverage and get your way...

You can start with the American Heart Association, which provides instructor courses. Keep in mind that if you want to incorporate certifying your students in CPR during class time, you will need some solid hours of instruction for your students. You could also invite the AHA in to teach the course if you don't want to become a certified instructor. Check out the following links from the AHA.
