HeartCode Blended Learning Courses

Basic Life Support (BLS) Training

The AHA’s BLS course trains participants to promptly recognize several life-threatening emergencies, give high-quality chest compressions, deliver appropriate ventilations, and provide early use of an AED.

The course is designed for healthcare professionals and other personnel who need to know how to perform CPR and other basic cardiovascular life support skills in a wide variety of in-facility and prehospital settings.

Learning Outcomes

Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) Training

The AHA’s ACLS course builds on the foundation of lifesaving BLS skills, emphasizing the importance of preventing cardiac arrest, early and continuous high-quality CPR, and high-performing teams.

The course is designed for healthcare professionals who either direct or participate in the management of cardiopulmonary arrest or other cardiovascular emergencies and for personnel in emergency response.

Learning Outcomes

RQI: Resuscitation Quality Improvement
The AHA’s RQI programs replaces skills decay with verified competence and saves more lives through low-dose, high-frequency training. The quarterly RQI curriculum delivers cognitive eLearning and self-directed skills training to achieve mastery learning of high-quality resuscitation skills.
