American Heart Association - Online CPR, BLS & ACLS

1. What are the online classes?

These classes are split into 3 parts. Part 1 is online and you study and take the exams online prior to your scheduled class time. Part 2 is a hands-on skills check, where you practice the skills with an instructor guiding you. Part 3 is your final skills test given in class by the instructor.

2. My employer says I cannot take an online CPR class, will they accept this certification?
Yes, they will accept this certification. It is not really an online CPR class. You simply study and prepare online prior to your hands-on skills check that takes place in class. This cuts down on the amount of time that you actually need to spend in class. We issue the exact same AHA card for these classes as we do for the classroom-based version.

3. Can I purchase Part 1 from Florida Training Academy?
Yes, you can purchase your online CPR AED and BLS - Part 1 class from Florida Training Academy -or- you can purchase the online class directly from the American Heart Association by visiting www.OnlineAHA.org.

4. Is the online class only for recertification?
This class can be taken by a first time student or a recertifying student. The logic is that a first time student will spend a lot more time studying online to pass the exam than the recert student.

5. What Skills Sessions (Part 2 & 3) can I complete at Florida Training Academy?
-Basic Life Support for Healthcare Providers          - First Aid
-Heartsaver® CPR and AED                                    - Advanced Cardiac Life Support

6. Are the Part 2 and Part 3 Skills Practice and Skills Test included in the cost of the Part 1 online course? No, Part 2 & Part 3 are purchased separately from Florida Training Academy. Please visit our enrollment site at fltraining.enrollware.com for prices, schedules and registration.
