ACLS or Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support is designed for healthcare professionals such as nurses, nurse practitioners, physicians, physicians assistants, paramedics, respiratory therapists and other advanced level providers who provide advanced level cardiovascular resuscitation to victims of cardiac arrest and/or stroke.

How long does the course take?2024-09-30T17:37:44+00:00

Full in person courses, where we watch the videos and do the skills along with the videos take about 4-6 hours depending on the discipline taught. If we do a blended learning session, you do an online module at home or work and then meet one of our instructors for a skills session and that skills session typically takes an hour to two hours depending on how many students we have enrolled in a skills session that day.

What is blended learning?2024-09-30T17:38:08+00:00

You take a portion of the course on-line, then complete the skills training with the latest advancements in CPR training tools with live certified instructors. You will receive the same certification as the classroom only course. This is the most popular option and is the best fit for most people by allowing you to take the majority of the class in the comfort of your own home and get the hands-on skills taught and tested in-person under the guidance of a CPR instructor.
