ACLS – Anywhere Recertification
ACLS Anywhere:
The Center for Emergency Medicine is proud to offer AHA Advanced Life Support Anywhere in an effort to make re-certification more accessible to students. In this course, students will acquire the most current ACLS knowledge and will develop proficiency in psychomotor skills to assure proper application of ACLS procedures. All courses are taught to the standards established by the American Heart Association and are appropriate for nurses, paramedics, EMT’s, physicians and other healthcare providers.
This course is the official American Heart Association ACLS e-learning program that allows the student to recertify their ACLS at a time that is more convenient for them. ACLS Anywhere is a great program for anyone needing to recertify in ACLS and has a schedule that makes it difficult to attend classes. This course is taught in two parts: Part One is an online module from the AHA (this must be completed prior to attending part two). Part Two is the classroom skills portion which includes hands on practice and knowledge demonstration.
