HeartCode® Blended PALS (online/skill)
HeartCode PALS is the AHA’s PALS blended learning delivery method. Blended learning is a combination of eLearning, in which a student completes part of the course in a self-directed manner online, followed by an in-person hands-on skill session. The e-Learning option is a convenient option for adult learners and is our most popular choice for Healthcare Providers who provide resuscitation on a regular basis as part of their duties of work, those who have taken the instructor-led class in the past, or those who prefer online learning. This course can be used for initial certifications and renewals.
Course Cost: $250.00 (includes online course, skills session, and AHA electronic card).
HeartCode® PALS Skill Session
This course is offered only for those who already completed online lectures and simulations, passed the written test, and obtained an online course completion certificate. Providers select this option when they have already purchased materials directly from the AHA or have received them from their employer and only need an in-person hands-on skills session to receive their AHA certification card.
Course Cost: $95.00 (includes skills session and AHA electronic card).
