Nursing staff may claim up to 10 CPD hours (based on 6 hours program contact and four hours self-directed learning).
Medical staff may be accredited a different allocation of hours based on the accreditation with their medical college CPD home.
Successful participants will be placed on the ACCCN National ALS Database.
Pre-course requirements:
“Instructor certification candidates must have a current ALS or PALS certification (completed within the last 12 months) in order to complete the Instructor Course (and gain recertification in their ALS or PALS qualification). Any registrant who attends a course without a current ALS or PALS certification will not be eligible to complete the Instructor Course and will not be issued a refund. For those who have a recently expired ALS or PALS certificate (completed with the last 12-18months) please contact the ACCCN to discuss any leniency in this rule based on special circumstances, prior to registering for this course”.
