I live in Canada, where BBP training isn't as readily available... I can get First Aid & CPR easily enough, but I was thinking about doing BBP training online......
I've seen a lot of courses online that are fairly cheap and claim to be OSHA compliant.... such as this one: (basic and advanced BBP training) -- but are they any good? Is this what I'm looking for in BBP training?
If an online course like this will only cost $18.00 I'm up for it, but it just seems ridiculously cheap.
This one has an available sample of the courses so you can see what they're doing.

Is this BBP training enough/legit?

Your local red cross should be able to provide info for BBP, also check with your local hospital ,community colleges that offer CNA programs will have information as well. Good Luck!
Because it's Canada, we don't have as strict standards for workplace training.
Local Red Cross in the area doesn't as far as I know -- the WSIB (Workplace Safety & Insurance Board) has nothing on the topic..
I know their First Aid & CPR courses cover the topic -- but I dont think that's enough.. its very minimal training (I've done it before).
EMGE...I went to the link for the so called "OSHA" training and although it sounds as if there is a lot of good info there I would hesitate to deal with any site that uses the OSHA name to con people into thinking that they are affiliated with that organisation.
But hey for under $20 what ya got to lose?

It wouldnt be good enough to work at our shop or convention. You should get to a tattoo convention where they have courses that specialize in tattooing. Or, er, wait, why dontcha ask your mentor?
