This approved venipuncture training course, along with a valid CPR card, satisfies the 10 hours of instruction associated with California legal requirement for venipuncture.  Participants will be watching 12 recorded lecture videos and completing 12 associated "knowledge checks" with at least a passing score of 75%.  After passing the online course modules, participants will schedule an in-person stick session with their institution to complete the remaining 10 required venipuncture sticks on I.V. training arms.
