INSTRUCTOR-LED ACLS, BLS, CPR, PALS, PEARS, AED & First Aid classes:

Register  Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) training is an advanced course that highlights the importance of high-performance team dynamics and communication, systems of care, recognition and intervention of cardiopulmonary arrest, immediate post-cardiac arrest, acute dysrhythmia, stroke and acute coronary syndromes (ACS).  

Register  Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support Experienced Provider (ACLS-EP) goes beyond the core ACLS training by offering critical thinking opportunities for those advanced, experienced, healthcare professionals who use ACLS on a regular basis. The goal of ACLS EP is to improve outcomes in complex cardiovascular, respiratory and other (e.g., metabolic, toxicologic) emergencies by expanding on core ACLS guidelines and encouraging critical thinking and decision-making strategies. Through cooperative learning and active participation in case-based scenarios, learners enhance their skills in the differential diagnosis and treatment of prearrest, arrest and postarrest patients. 

Register  Basic Life Support (BLS) training reinforces healthcare professionals’ understanding of the importance of early CPR and defibrillation, basic steps of performing CPR, relieving choking, and using an AED; and the role of each link in the Chain of Survival. 

Register  Basic Life Support (BLS) Challenge course skips the classroom and allows individuals the opportunity to demonstrate knowledge and skill competency outside a formal class setting. 

Register  CPR AED classes are designed for anyone with little or no medical training who needs a course completion card for their job, regulatory (for example, OSHA), or other requirements. This class is for daycare or childcare providers, fitness trainers, construction workers, coaches and athletic trainers, volunteers, teachers, flight attendants, lifeguards, correction officers, babysitters, new parents, high school students, or social workers. These courses can also be taken by anyone who wants to be prepared for an emergency in any setting.  

Register  First Aid CPR AED classes are designed for anyone with little or no medical training who needs a course completion card for their job, regulatory (for example, OSHA), or other requirements. First Aid can be added and teaches students first aid actions for medical emergencies and skills for handling injury and environmental emergencies, including external bleeding, broken bones and sprains, and bites and stings.  

Register  Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) training is an advanced course that highlights the importance of high-performance team dynamics and communication, pediatric emergencies to reinforce the important concepts of a systematic approach to pediatric assessment, basic life support, PALS treatment algorithms, and effective resuscitation. The goal of the PALS class is to improve the quality of care provided to seriously ill or injured children, resulting in improved outcomes. 

Register  Pediatric Emergency Assessment, Recognition, & Stabilization (PEARS) teaches providers who infrequently deal with pediatrics how to use a systematic approach to quickly assess, recognize the cause, and stabilize a pediatric patient in an emergency situation. PEARS prepares providers to provide appropriate lifesaving interventions within the initial minutes of response until a child can be transferred to an advanced life support provider.

ONLINE ACLS, BLS, CPR, PALS, AED & First Aid classes:

The American Heart Association also offers blended classes which combines the flexibility of online e-learning (part one) and an instructor for the skills practice and testing (part two and three).  HeartCode® is a web-based, instructional class that uses eSimulation technology to allow students to assess and treat patients in virtual healthcare settings. Through eSimulation students apply their knowledge to patient cases and see the results of their decision in real-time. Students gain experience about basic and advanced life support techniques in environments that imitate real-life, helping them prepare successful treatment plans in actual situations.

Register  Heartcode® ACLS Online is a self-directed, comprehensive eLearning program that uses eSimulation technology to allow students to assess and treat patients in virtual healthcare settings. To enter the class, students must complete a precourse self-assessment. Students will then be presented with a team dynamics lesson and 10 In-hospital patient cases, including a BLS case and 2 megacode cases. 

Register  Heartcode® BLS Online is for healthcare professionals seeking an alternative method for completing an initial or renewal BLS course. The hands-on skills practice and testing session (sold separately) are conducted in-person with an AHA BLS or Heartsaver Instructor. Upon successful completion of both the online and hands-on portions of the class, students receive a course completion card, valid for two years. 

Register  Heartsaver® CPR AED Online This self-directed class is designed to prepare students to provide CPR and use an AED in a safe, timely, and effective manner. The skills learned in this class will help you recognize cardiac arrest, get emergency care on the way quickly, and help the person until more advanced care arrives to take over. The hands-on skills practice and testing session (sold separately) are conducted in-person with an AHA BLS or Heartsaver Instructor. Upon successful completion of both the online and hands-on portions of the class, students receive a course completion card, valid for two years.  

Register  Heartsaver® First Aid CPR AED Online This self-directed class is designed to prepare students to provide first aid, CPR, and use an automated external defibrillator (AED) in a safe, timely, and effective manner.  It offers the basics of recognizing and administering first aid for the most common life-threatening emergencies. The hands-on skills practice and testing session (sold separately) are conducted in-person with an AHA BLS or Heartsaver Instructor. Upon successful completion of both the online and hands-on portions of the class, students receive a course completion card, valid for two years. 

Register HeartCode PALS Online is a comprehensive program that uses a series of videos and simulated pediatric emergencies to reinforce the important concepts of a systematic approach to pediatric assessment, basic life support, PALS treatment algorithms, effective resuscitation, and team dynamics. Using eSimulation technology, students can assess and treat patients in virtual healthcare settings. In this environment, students also apply their knowledge to real-time decision-making and skills development. Debriefings and coaching are provided immediately after each simulation to facilitate learning.

Register  Skills Session is the hands-on portion (Part 2/3) after successful completion of the online portion (Part 1).  A copy of your completion certificate must be presented at your skills session.
