Hello, this is Editor H from IMLAB, a provider of smart safety-training solutions. Interest is growing among companies in safety-training spaces that move beyond theory-based instruction and support hands-on experience and repeated practice.

In this post, we introduce how CPR Station is being used at the S-1 Training Center in Cheonan.

The original post notes that S-1 has long shown an interest in CPR through CPR training and related products.

As interest grew in hands-on safety training that could strengthen real-world response skills—not just theoretical knowledge—the center introduced IMLAB’s CPR Station kiosk for experiential learning.

Designing a Training Space, Not Simply Installing Equipment

This project went beyond installing CPR equipment. The CPR practice area, safety-training content, and the flow of the hands-on experience were considered together, creating an environment in which training could take place naturally.

It is the kind of setup that makes you want to step in and try the safety experience for yourself.

How CPR Station Is Used

At the S-1 Training Center in Cheonan, CPR Station was set up as an always-available, hands-on learning experience that trainees could use freely.

Key Features

  • Real-time CPR feedback
  • Support for repeated practice
  • Review of training results
  • An intuitive kiosk interface

For training managers, a key advantage is the ability to keep repeat practice available between instructor-led sessions without having to schedule an additional lecture each time.

Making Better Use of the Training Space

Traditional safety-training spaces often see little use outside scheduled training hours.

CPR Station, however, can also serve as part of the space itself by making use of waiting areas, displaying safety content throughout the day, and reinforcing the organization’s training identity. In this case, it fit naturally into a corporate training-center environment.

Benefits of CPR Station

CPR Station is particularly well suited to corporate lobbies and other high-traffic environments.

  • Accessible, self-guided practice between instructor-led sessions
  • Core skills can be covered in a short period
  • The system can remain available throughout the day
  • Encourages participation
  • Training data and outcomes can be reviewed

Learning and Practice Modes

  • Review CPR theory independently through videos and quizzes between instructor-led sessions.
  • Practice accurately and enjoyably with real-time feedback and racing-style content.
  • Build skills through repetition, while recorded data supports completion tracking and performance management.

Remote Management with CPR Cloud

The source lists Seoul and Gangwon fire services, Samsung C&T, Samsung E&A, KAIST, the Korea Racing Authority, and Kumho Engineering & Construction among organizations operating multiple kiosks. At sites with several units, data-driven management can help administrators oversee the kiosks efficiently.

How Corporate Training Trends Are Changing

Corporate safety training is increasingly shifting toward hands-on learning, interactive content, and opportunities for repeated practice.

The source observes that direct experience is becoming more important in emergency-response education and that adoption of hands-on CPR training solutions is gradually expanding.

Expected Benefits

As the S-1 Training Center case in Cheonan illustrates, safety education is evolving beyond mandatory training toward an approach that considers both the physical space and the learning experience.

IMLAB will continue working to create more effective smart safety-training environments.

CPR Station Case Study: Self-Guided CPR Training at Icheon Nambu Health Support Center

Most people say they'd help if someone collapsed in front of them — but few feel sure they'd actually know what to do. That's the gap the Icheon Nambu Health Support Center set out to close by installing IMLAB's CPR Station, a self-guided kiosk that combines CPR theory, hands-on practice, real-time feedback, and remote management, right in its lobby. Interest in self-guided CPR kiosks has been growing across Korea, as public institutions look for smarter ways to deliver health and safety education without needing an instructor on-site. By adding CPR Station, the center can now offer residents structured, repeatable CPR training as part of its everyday health and safety programs.
