Our BLS accreditations are nationally certified and accepted by many healthcare employers and facilities, and tens of thousands of medical professionals have successfully earned their BLS and other emergency life support certifications through our courses and programs. Our online BLS courses are built upon the latest emergency cardiovascular care (ECC) guidelines as published by the American Heart Association (AHA) and determined in conjunction with the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR), which is responsible for the coordination of all aspects of cardiopulmonary and cerebral resuscitation worldwide, including the latest peer-reviewed articles and expert consensus guidelines. In short, we coordinate with and are recognized by many governing bodies and agencies, and we work hard to gain approval from employers across the country for your BLS requirements, but we cannot guarantee that each and every agency and institution will accept your BLS certification through us. Please check with your particular facility to confirm that online BLS certification will be accepted.
