HeartCode ACLS 

HeartCode® ACLS is a self-directed, comprehensive eLearning program that uses eSimulation technology to allow participants to assess and treat patients in virtual healthcare settings. To enter the course, participants must complete a precourse self-assessment. Participants will then be presented with a team dynamics lesson and 10 In-hospital patient cases, including a BLS case and 2 megacode cases.

Upon successful completion of all the patient cases, participants must pass the written exam with a score of 84%. Participants then are able to attend the hands-on session required for full course completion.

Heartcode ACLS is for both initial and renewal certification. 

Cost: $250.00 (includes online course link/key, skills check, and AHA card)
