Keep Your Skills Sharp. Keep Your Team Safe.

Advanced Life Support skills decay without practice. This one-day recertification course gives you the structured review, hands-on scenarios, and formal assessment you need to stay confident, competent, and current - so when it matters most, you're ready.

Developed in line with the latest Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) statements and ANZCOR guidelines, this program is designed for healthcare professionals who hold a current Adult ALS certification and are ready to build on their existing knowledge.

Designed for clinicians working in high-pressure environments where confident decision-making and effective team leadership matter.

What to Expect

Morning: Review & Practice The day begins with a focused review of core ALS content, with a strong focus on practical application in resuscitation scenarios. You'll work through skill stations and team-based scenarios that reflect the real pressures of a resuscitation event.

·         Basic Life Support algorithm and principles

·         Adult Advanced Life Support algorithm and principles

·         Airway management and electrical therapy skill stations

Afternoon: Assessment The formal theoretical and practical recertification assessment follows in the afternoon. You'll be assessed at the level of an effective ALS Team Leader - a standard that reflects the expectation on critical care nurses in real clinical environments.
