Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) Course Options

Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) is available in two different training methods – blended learning and classroom training. All ACLS course options teach the same AHA science-based skills and result in the same AHA ACLS Course Completion Card.

Blended Learning (online portion, followed by hands-on skills session)

HeartCode ACLS uses a variety of eLearning assets such as dramatizations, eSimulations, animations, self-directed learning, team dynamics training, megacode cases, and interactive activities to teach students ACLS knowledge and skills.

HeartCode ACLS is the AHA’s ACLS blended learning delivery method. Blended learning is a combination of eLearning, in which a student completes part of the course in a self-directed manner, followed by a hands-on skills session.

• To enter the course, students must complete the ACLS Precourse Self-Assessment.
• Students are then presented with an enhanced learning experience through eSimulations, life-like animations, video scenarios, and knowledge checks.
• Cases may be repeated as many times as necessary to pass. Upon successful completion of all the patient cases, students must pass the multiple-choice exam with a minimum score of 84%.
• Web-based, self-paced eSimulation instructional program for ACLS cognitive training.
• Students apply knowledge to real-time decision-making and skills development
• Debriefings and coaching are provided immediately after each simulation to facilitate learning.

Instructor-led (hands-on class format)

The ACLS Instructor-led course teaches both single-rescuer and team basic life support skills for application in both prehospital and in-facility environments, with a focus on High-Quality CPR and team dynamics.

• Emphasis on high-quality CPR including a team dynamics classroom activity
• Video-based course with real world scenarios. Includes realistic, clinical scenarios that encourage active participation – delivered through actual pediatric patient videos and lifelike simulations
• Hands-on class format to reinforce skills proficiency
