4. HSI offers discounts on student certification materials

Who doesn’t love a good discount? Every approved training center is eligible to participate in HSI’s pricing level discount program, which offers pricing level discounts based on your purchases. This means the more you buy with HSI, the more you save.

Here’s how the pricing level discount program works:

• You’re rewarded with lower prices on student certification materials as you purchase more programs and products from HSI.
• All product purchases made through your HSI training portal accrue towards your next pricing level.
• When you reach the next pricing level, the appropriate discount is automatically applied to your next order.

Everything you need for classes — new instructor packages, programs, manikins, manikin accessories, barriers, clothing, AEDs, and other training accessories — helps you reach the next pricing level discount.

Pricing levels are determined by the calendar year. So, the more you buy now, the more you continue to save.
