HeartCode® BLS Blended Learning

HeartCode® BLS is for healthcare professionals who have experience and knowledge of Basic Life Support skills. This course has been updated to reflect new science and training recommendations in the 2025 AHA Guidelines for CPR and ECC. In this course learners follow a continuously adapting learning path that is personalized by the learner's own inputs; their performance, and their self-reported confidence level related to each probe. The course content is presented in the form of self-directed learning content, probes, and Cognitive Assessment Activities. This course consists of two parts:

Part 1 - Online eLearning Course – After registering for this course you will receive an email within 3 business days containing your 2025 HeartCode BLS Online eLearning code. The email containing your code will come from eLearning.heart.org. This code in the form of a unique link provides access to the online course. After successfully completing the online course you will receive a certificate of completion. Please note, you must print and bring a copy of the 2025 HeartCode BLS Online certificate of completion with you to the in-person HeartCode BLS classroom course you have selected. You will NOT be admitted to the in-person class if you do not bring your certificate of completion. We suggest allowing at least 2 hours for the online eLearning course. 

Part 2 - In-Person Classroom Course – After completing the online eLearning course described above, you will then attend the pre-scheduled in-person classroom course on the date you registered for.

Please note, if you arrive late or leave early you will NOT successfully complete the course.
