What is CPR Training Labs AHA ACLS Certification?

CPR Training Labs ACLS is a hybrid training program combining an adaptive online AHA Heartcode ACLS course with an in-person skills assessment. This design allows you to learn at home and then demonstrate your practical skills at our training center, ensuring you stay current with American Heart Association standards for advanced cardiac life support.

CPR Training Labs ACLS is an innovative program for American Heart Association ACLS Provider certification designed to adapt to your level of expertise. Here’s how our program works:

  • Adaptive Online Course:
    Complete the updated and adaptive AHA Heartcode ACLS online course at home. Beginners may take 4 hours or more, while experienced learners can finish in two hours or less.
  • Virtual Preparatory & Review Sessions:
    Enhance your understanding with virtual ACLS preparatory courses and group review sessions led by experienced instructors, available multiple times a week.
  • Hands-On Skills Assessment:
    After finishing the online course, register for a one-hour, in-person skills session at a CPR Training Labs center.
    Choose between:
    Virtual Instructor-Guided: Receive real-time guidance from a remote instructor.
    Self-Guided: Complete your skills assessment independently with supervisory support.

This hybrid approach ensures you gain both the theoretical knowledge and the practical expertise required for advanced cardiac life support.

Rachel K, Registered Nurse
The training experience at CPR Training Labs exceeded my expectations. The blend of online learning modules, preparation videos, and interactive feedback sessions created a simple but comprehensive learning environment. The RQI system highlighted areas for improvement immediately, and I was able to practice my technique multiple times until I felt good, and until I got it exactly right. Thanks for making this training available!
