Quick and easy. I like the feature to be able to retake right away if I failed a section. The practice time was great. I didn't have to start cold turkey.

Online lessons were great! Having the ability to choose the date and time of your in person skills was the best!! Multiple dates available and times and feel prepared with my ACLS training!

Great system, I actually felt like I walked out with something new and useful, and I love how during the skill test even if you passed you can retry to do better I really appreciated that system

The online portion was educational and easy to navigate. The skills portion was also great since I could find a time that works for my busy schedule. The center was easy to find and instructions were great!

This provider truly goes above and beyond! It was my first time completing BLS/ACLS training through an online and in-person format, and I was very impressed with the entire experience. The room for the in-person portion was clean and organized. The instructions and signs were clear and easy to follow, including simple directions for using the manikin and laptop. Another great feature is that they are one of the few providers offering a bundle discount for BLS, ACLS, and PALS, which is an excellent value. I also had an issue and couldn’t make it to my scheduled in-person portion. Their rescheduling process was fast and easy, and they were very helpful in getting everything taken care of. I’m so glad I found this place! 🔥 I highly recommend this provider for BLS, ACLS, and PALS training. It was a great experience from start to finish!

The online portion of the course involved videos and short quizzes that were easy to follow and fast to get through. The classroom portion was also fast! The virtual instructor provided valuable and timely performance feedback. Will definitely be returning for BLS renewal.

So fast and easy. I love the set up. And I love that. They are so quick to respond if you have any questions or need to reschedule. Definitely recommend this for all my fellow nurses or firefighters who need to renew

The best CPR certification course and in-person skills I’ve ever used for BLS/ACLS/PALS! The price is competitive with others, but is so much easier to schedule and speak with a live person if you come across and questions or concerns. I’ll be back for my re-certifications.

Seamless. Awesome. I will never renew another way. Even though it’s most expensive it is 100% worth it for the convenience.
