The youngest age a person can learn and perform CPR will be based on their developmental progress and maturity. Some states and certifying agencies have minimum ages to be certified in CPR based on studies of ages required to learn the information and pass the skill and test requirements. Usually, these youngest ages range from 10 to 12 years old which would be a good estimate to answer your question.
