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).
