The American Heart Association has many training options available to help you become certified as well as many Continuing Ed CME / CEU unit credit online programs.
Although you may find many web-based programs that offer CPR and the ability to print out a card, the only way you can receive an American Heart Association certification card is to use their program(s) and complete a skills practice/check off by an AHA Instructor.
There is a separate fee for the skill checkoffs at ERTSS. The certification eCard is included in this fee.

The Benefits of AHA eLearning

The American Heart Association offers eLearning and blended learning courses to provide complete, flexible training solutions.

Students are able to complete online training at their own pace, while companies and healthcare organizations can overcome obstacles such as scheduling, reaching remote employees and diverse learning styles.

Consistency & Quality

  • Blended and eLearning training ensures all students learn all topics necessary to help increase survival rates. Research has shown more consistency in eLearning training.
  • AHA is the source of the science behind the development of all of its training courses, and the AHA Guidelines for CPR and ECC are a proven source of quality.
  • Students still complete in-person hands-on skills sessions and testing for courses requiring CPR and other psychomotor skills

Convenience

  • Time in Training Center’s classrooms is minimized as only the hands-on skills session needs to be completed in person. Training is completed mostly on the student’s schedule.
  • Students can complete online courses anytime and anywhere with internet access. Courses can be completed at home or on the go, on any preferred desktop or tablet device.
  • Students can review topics difficult to them and complete the course at their own pace. This improves the changes of student’s high performance at the skills session (for blended learning courses) and in real life situations.
  • CE credit is available for all of these courses; refer to course pages for specifics.
  • The student manual is provided with the online course if required; it does not need to be purchased separately.
