                PALS Instructor Orientation Course

                The Instructor Orientation Course is MANDATORY per DISCIPLINE, and for all Instructors to complete prior to attending the classroom portion of their instructor training program. This pre-requisite course is MANDATORY and INSTRUCTOR CARDS WILL NOT BE ISSUED to students who have not successfully completed this course in addition to all the other instructor requirements. This Orientation Course replaces Instructor affiliation fees that were a previous obligation to receive instructor cards. This course is password protected, and so the key code you receive will be considered your password into the course. Each password is DISCIPLINE SPECIFIC, so make sure you are using the correct password for each discipline (i.e. a BLS, ACLS, or PALS).

                AHA STUDENT MANUAL AND TEXTBOOK POLICY

                Each student must have the current, appropriate course textbook of their own readily available for use before, during, and after the course.

                Textbooks are designed for individual use and are an integral part of the student’s education. Students may reuse their textbooks during renewals or updates UNTIL NEW SCIENCE GUIDELINES ARE PUBLISHED. (i.e. 2025 AHA Update)

                The American Heart Association (AHA) designs their resuscitation courses using the most current educational design concepts. In order to maximize the students’ learning potential and keep course length manageable, the AHA have designed the classroom courses with the intent that students will have the opportunity to study the course materials outside of the class itself. It is necessary that students have access to student manuals before, during, and after each course, especially if the students are less familiar with the skills.

                 

                RESCUE ELITE BOOK POLICY

                NO BOOKS may be returned or refunded for any reason. Books may not be issued during the course and then returned for a refund; this includes if it has been unopened. Books may also not be shared during the course; this is against American Heart Association rules and guidelines. Per AHA Rules, each student must have their own current book in order to attend an AHA course.

                * A MANUAL IS REQUIRED IN A COURSE OR YOU MAY NOT ENTER. *
