Our courses

Our course roster

Our courses follow the 2020 American Heart Association guidelines for CPR and ECC. This science is compatible with Canadian Heart and Stroke Foundation (HSF), European Resuscitation Council (ERC) and the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR). All of our courses are created in-house by our team of writers, technical editors, copy editors, and publication team, who are experts in their respective fields. Where appropriate, our materials do reference the canonical scientific literature for that topic. Our courses are always based on the latest revision of the available science, as we make frequent updates. Although the scientific publications are released every 5 years for ACLS/PALS/BLS, and slower for other topics, we do update our course material through a review process that solicits customer feedback to strive for the best training materials possible. Education is a competitive market and we work hard to make the best products and experiences possible.
