BLS Renewal & Recertification at Safety Training Seminars ensures that healthcare professionals, first responders, and public safety personnel maintain current Basic Life Support (BLS) skills and remain compliant with American Heart Association (AHA) standards. BLS skills can diminish over time, making renewal essential for effective response to life-threatening emergencies. Our recertification courses help participants refresh knowledge, update skills, and stay compliant with employer and regulatory requirements.
American Heart Association® BLS CPR Classes are designed for healthcare professionals and first responders who need high-quality, hands-on life-saving training. Our courses follow the latest AHA guidelines and focus on real-world skills you can confidently apply in emergency situations. Whether you’re a nurse, doctor, EMT, dental professional, or part of a clinical team, our BLS CPR certification ensures you meet workplace and regulatory requirements.
Even trained professionals may experience skill decay if BLS techniques are not practiced regularly. Renewal ensures participants:

Completion of the recertification course ensures participants remain fully qualified and compliant.
