NSW Adult ALS 1 Day Recertification 9 February 2027 - Westmead Education Centre

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.

Designed for clinicians working in high-pressure environments where rapid decision-making and effective team leadership matter. Essential for healthcare professionals working in acute and critical care environments who are required to respond to deteriorating or critically unwell adult patients. 

Developed in line with the latest Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) statements and ANZCOR guidelines, this course combines targeted ALS revision with the opportunity to apply those concepts in practice scenarios - supporting ongoing competency and recertification in Adult Advanced Life Support.
