A computer-implemented method for managing rescue training includes registering a plurality of individuals as potential rescue trainees through a central computer server system, receiving from computing devices that are remote from the central server system information indicative of rate and depth of compression for ones of the potential rescue trainees, and generating comparative data that reflects performance of CPR chest compressions for a first rescue trainee against other rescue trainees. The method also includes providing the comparative data over a network for review by one or more of the rescue trainees.
