The American Heart Association’s blended learning option combines the cognitive learning portion with the hands-on skills session, but it is at your own pace. This eLearning option is perfect for those with a busy schedule since it offers the flexibility of completing the course at your own pace. You must however, also complete a hands-on skills session to obtain a course completion card. Your skill competency must be verified and tested with an AHA Instructor within 60 days of completing the online portion.
