We hear this question frequently. As a national AHA Training Center, we can confirm that you’ll receive the same American Heart Association certification whether you complete our traditional in-person course or our efficient RQI automated skills assessment. The AHA provides uniform certification, regardless of training pathway.
It’s important to understand the difference between completely online, non-AHA certifications and the blended learning approach offered by Bayside CPR. We are an official American Heart Association (AHA) Training Center. This means we adhere strictly to AHA guidelines and provide only official AHA certifications.
Many employers are wary of “online CPR certifications” from companies that claim to “follow AHA guidelines” but issue their own, non-recognized cards. These certifications hold no real-world value and are often considered rip-offs.
Bayside CPR offers AHA courses that utilize a blended learning format. This includes:
- Online Components: You complete the cognitive (knowledge-based) portion of the course online, at your own pace. This allows for flexible learning.
- In-Person Skills Session: You then attend a brief, hands-on skills session at one of our authorized locations. This is where you demonstrate your proficiency to an AHA-certified instructor or using our new and most popular AHA RQI Automated Station.
The in-person skills session is a mandatory component of our AHA-certified courses. This ensures you receive practical training and demonstrate competency, which is a requirement for official AHA certification.
In summary:
- We are an official AHA Training Center.
- We issue only official AHA certifications, which are universally recognized, and valid for 2 years.
- Our courses combine online learning with mandatory in-person skills sessions.
- We are not a fraudulent online company issuing invalid certifications.
Therefore, our blended learning courses meet the requirements for official AHA certification, which is what your employer requires. If your employer has any concerns, please have them contact us directly at 443-837-7891 or info@baysidecpr.com, and we will be happy to provide further information and verification.
