This article explains how Self-Guided Learning courses work, what each course covers, and how to complete your American Heart Association Course Completion eCard at the Brentwood location.
Self-Guided Learning™ is an American Heart Association course format that combines two independent components:
Learners complete both components independently. Upon successful completion of both, they receive an American Heart Association Course Completion eCard for BLS, ACLS, or PALS. The eCard is valid for two years and accepted at hospitals, clinics, and healthcare facilities nationwide.
This format differs from classroom learning, where an instructor leads both the cognitive and skills components in person. It also differs from blended learning, which pairs online cognitive content with an instructor-led skills check. Self-Guided Learning removes the instructor from both components, giving learners full control over their schedule.
The course used for this format is HeartCode® Complete — an American Heart Association Self-Guided Learning course for BLS, ACLS, and PALS.
HeartCode® is a trademark of the American Heart Association.
The online portion of a Self-Guided Learning course uses True Adaptive™ learning powered by Area9 Lyceum. This technology continuously assesses each learner’s knowledge and confidence, then adjusts the content path in real time.
Learners spend more time on topics they haven’t mastered and move quickly through content they already understand. The result is a personalized, competency-focused learning experience that does not waste time on material a learner already knows.
Key facts about the online component:
The online learning activity must be completed before scheduling the self-guided skills session at the CPR Verification Station learning center.
The CPR Verification Station™ learning center at Safety Training Seminars in Brentwood allows learners to complete the hands-on skills session independently, using a Voice Assisted Manikin (VAM).
During the self-guided skills session, the learner:
There is no live instructor, virtual coach, or facilitator present during the skills session. The CPR Verification Station learning center provides objective measurement against AHA guidelines throughout.
BLS skills sessions take approximately 30 minutes. ACLS and PALS skills sessions also run approximately 30 minutes each for the HeartCode® Complete format.
Upon successful completion of both the online learning activity and the self-guided skills session, the learner receives their American Heart Association Course Completion eCard the same day.
