What are CPR Verification Stations

Online BLS - CPR Verification Station

The American Heart Association, Laerdal, and RQI Partners offers a program for one of the most effective ways for healthcare professionals to earn and maintain their official AHA BLS, ACLS, and PALS certification cards.

The Voice Assisted Manikins (VAMs) provide short, focused training sessions to help providers build stronger, more consistent CPR skills compared to traditional classroom-only courses.

AHA BLS CPR Certification

How It Works

1️⃣ Complete the online AHA course at your own pace. Most students finish in just a few hours.
2️⃣ Perform hands-on skills testing using a Voice-Assisted Manikin (VAM), which provides real-time feedback on compression depth, recoil, rate, and ventilation. About 30 minutes.
3️⃣ Receive your official AHA certification card the same day, right after your skills test.
