Who certifies BESTCPRUSA classes?

BESTCPRUSA, American Heart Association, American Red Cross, and other national training associations rely on ILCOR to recommend best practices and to update the guidelines every 5 years.

We offer American Heart Association course completion cards for an additional fee.

I've seen online courses in CPR, are they professional and accepted?

While online courses may provide an introduction to course content, CPR (cardio-pulmonary resuscitation) is a motor skill, not just a cognitive skill. Peforming CPR requires physical repetition to learn effective techniques and to practice cooperation with other rescuers. Most agencies and employers will not accept online-only training.
