Heartsaver First Aid from the American Heart Association

Heartsaver^® First Aid from the American Heart Association

Our Heartsaver First Aid courses, available in either classroom settings or online, and in Spanish, are your solution to providing quality first aid training, whatever your company’s needs.

We offer traditional, instructor-led courses, as well as eLearning courses that feature a “blended” learning format. For the eLearning courses, the student completes Part 1 online, then completes Part 2 (skills practice) and Part 3 (skills testing) with an American Heart Association Instructor.

See the matrix below to decide what’s best for you.
