Online ACLS Renewal Course Information
The time commitment required for the ACLS online recertification course depends on several factors, but in general, expect to set aside between four to eight hours. The length is typically dependent upon the student to instructor ratio, as well as availability of equipment. When it comes to ACLS recertification, the quality of training takes priority for instructors. Every student will be given plenty of time to fully comprehend the required life-saving skills and training. Completing your ACLS online renewal certification shows your commitment to taking charge in a cardiac emergency. Your initial ACLS certification is valid for two years; after that time period, you are required to take an AHA ACLS renewal course to keep your ACLS certification up to date. Recertification is essential because it proves that you are ready and able to handle cardiovascular emergencies on the job or in everyday life.
