BLS certification or recertification online
BLS certification course: Take this course if you've never been certified.
BLS certification course: If you've been certified in the past.
Our BLS certification course is designed customers who have never been certified in the past, or customers interested in a more detailed course. Our BLS recertification or BLS renewal course is designed for customers who have been certified in basic life support at some point in the past (though their previous certification may or not still be active). They can renew BLS online.
Receive an instant provider eCard as soon as you pass
Other web-based medical education providers make you wait for them to send an email provider eCard, which only happens during regular business hours. Our BLS certification and recertification or BLS renewal courses includes a free instant provider eCard that you'll be able to download as soon as you pass the exam, day or night, 24/7/365! You can view and print the instant eCard with the free Adobe Acrobat Reader program and use it until your regular hard copy provider certificate arrives in the mail. The hard copy certificate is mailed only if requested.
Our instant provider eCards are in Adobe PDF format so you can view and print them using the free Adobe Acrobat Reader program from www.adobe.com.

The certification course is longer than the recertification course because it doesn't assume previous experience.
