Our AHA BLS classes provide comprehensive instruction in essential life-saving skills required in professional healthcare and emergency environments. Coursework includes:

  • Rapid patient assessment and visual survey techniques
  • High-quality CPR and AED use for adults, children, and infants
  • Management of foreign-body airway obstruction (choking)

Training is evidence-based and reinforced through hands-on practice and instructor-led scenarios, ensuring skills can be confidently applied in real emergencies.

AHA BLS Class Formats to Fit Your Schedule

Safety Training Seminars offers flexible AHA BLS class options while maintaining full compliance with American Heart Association requirements.

In-Person AHA BLS Classes

Instructor-led classroom training that combines guided instruction with extensive hands-on skills practice. This option is ideal for participants who prefer a traditional learning environment with direct instructor interaction and real-time feedback.

Blended Learning AHA BLS Classes

A combination of self-paced online coursework and a required in-person skills session. This format allows participants to complete the knowledge portion on their schedule, then demonstrate skills to an AHA-certified instructor.

Both formats result in the same official AHA BLS Provider certification.

AHA BLS Certification – Simple, Fast & Digital

Upon successful completion of an AHA BLS class, participants receive an official American Heart Association BLS Provider eCard.

  • Issued same day in most cases
  • Valid for two (2) years
  • Accepted nationwide by hospitals, clinics, and healthcare employers
  • Easily shareable and verifiable for employment and compliance

The AHA eCard system allows employers to quickly confirm certification validity, making it a trusted and widely accepted credential.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these BLS classes officially approved by the American Heart Association?

Yes. All BLS classes offered by Safety Training Seminars follow American Heart Association CPR & ECC Guidelines, and successful participants receive an official AHA BLS Provider eCard.

No. The AHA requires a hands-on skills session for BLS certification. While part of the course may be completed online in a blended format, in-person skills validation is mandatory.

Class length varies based on the format and participant experience level. Blended learning options are often faster for experienced providers, while in-person classes allow more time for hands-on practice.
