Common CPR Class Questions:

How do I become CPR certified?

Getting CPR Certified is easy.

  1. Book a class with a training provider like Save A Life CPR.
  2. Take the class
  3. Meet your course objectives
  4. Receive your eCard or digital certificate

Are Online CPR Classes Legitimate?

Online only courses can be found all over the internet. Most schools and employers do not accept certifications unless they have an in-person component. Practicing on a proper training manikin is the closest you can get to performing CPR for real. It is a vital step to ensure that you can perform in a real-world situation. Most schools/employers do allow for blended learning, which consists of part on-line and part in-person classes which are offered by a major training provider like Save A Life CPR. This solution can be a great fit for you because it allows you to take most of the class from the comfort of your own home and get the hands-on skills taught and tested in-person under the watchful eye of our expert staff.

If your employer is subject to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations, then OSHA standards do not accept online-only certifications for employees that are required to have CPR training.

Many employers accept only a certification from the American Red Cross or the American Heart Association. These organizations have the most widely accepted certification programs. They cannot be obtained by online-exclusive training but can be obtained via blended learning options.

It is important to check your employer’s or school’s requirements before signing up for any training course.

How Long Are American Heart Association CPR Classes?

The time it takes to complete the online class depends on the training you choose and whether you are taking the classroom only or blended learning option where part of the class is completed online and part of it is completed in-person with a qualified CPR Instructor present.
For example, the Adult CPR/AED class will take:

Classroom only – About 2-3 hours

Blended Learning – Online 1-3 hours (Done at your convenience) plus 20+ minutes of in-class instructor led skills learning with manikins.

How Long Does an AHA CPR Certificate Last?

Our American Heart Association & American Red Cross CPR & First Aid certifications are valid for 2 years.

What's the Difference Between Layman CPR and BLS?

As far as certifications go the American Red Cross and American Heart Association provide certifications called Basic Life Support (BLS) for Healthcare Providers that are designed for medical professionals rather than the general public. BLS courses covers a lot more ground than what you’d normally learn in a CPR class designed for a layperson. It is important to check your employer’s requirements before registering for any training course.
