A 30-second read so you book exactly what you need: BLS, ACLS, PALS, or CPR / First Aid / AED, with no wrong courses and no wasted time.
BLS or CPR / First Aid / AED?
Both teach lifesaving CPR. The difference is who they're built for and how much depth they go into.
BLS (Basic Life Support)
Provider-level course for nurses, EMS, medical and dental staff, and students entering healthcare. High-performance CPR, bag-mask, and team response.
CPR / First Aid / AED
For workplaces, teachers, coaches, childcare, and the public. Practical CPR, AED use, and first aid for everyday emergencies.
- If your employer or school asked for "BLS for Healthcare Providers," choose BLS.
- For general workplace or personal readiness, choose CPR / First Aid / AED.
ACLS & PALS
Advanced courses for licensed clinicians who manage cardiac and pediatric emergencies. A current BLS card is the foundation for both. Initial and renewal students should choose the full class unless they have already purchased and completed the AHA HeartCode online portion.
ACLS
Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support, covering rhythms, medications, and team-led response to cardiac arrest and stroke in adults.
PALS
Pediatric Advanced Life Support, covering assessment and resuscitation for infants and children, for pediatric and emergency providers.
- Hold a current BLS card before taking ACLS or PALS.
- For ACLS or PALS renewal, choose the Full Class / Renewal option. Only choose a Skills Session if you already purchased and completed HeartCode ACLS or HeartCode PALS online.
AHA vs American Red Cross vs ASHI
These are the certifying organizations behind your card. The skills meet the same national standard. The difference is which brand your employer recognizes.
- AHA: American Heart Association, the most widely requested for hospitals and clinical roles.
- American Red Cross: broadly accepted for workplace, education, and community roles.
- ASHI: recognized for many industry, safety, and occupational requirements.
Skills Sessions
Skills Sessions are only for students who already purchased and completed the required AHA HeartCode online course. If you have not completed HeartCode, book the Full Class / Renewal option instead.
- Bring your HeartCode completion certificate. Without it, you need the Full Class / Renewal option.
- Short in-person check-off for students who completed the online portion first.
- Receive your official card after successful skills completion and processing.
