The American Heart Association Basic Life Support (BLS) certification provides those in the healthcare industry (including healthcare students!) with the instruction and certification of CPR and AED use. Teaching both single-rescuer and team application skills, our students are able to utilize their knowledge and experience in both pre-hospital and in-facility environments.
After receiving your BLS certification, your card will be valid for two years from the date on your certification. It’s important for healthcare professionals to take a BLS recertification course to help update their skills, refresh their memory, and extend their certification for an additional two years. At ACLS Academy, we offer an instructor-led, traditional BLS recertification course to allow you to stay certified and on the job!
How BLS Recertification Works
In order to renew your BLS certification, you will need to take a BLS recertification course. This instructor-led, abbreviated version of the BLS certification course allows professionals to become re-certified in just 2.5-3 hours. In order to take our BLS recertification course, your current certification must be current or expired by no more than 60 days.
