What You Get in the ACLS Certification Course
The International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) defines Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) as an algorithmic series of medical procedures and techniques designed for urgent treatment of cardiac arrest, stroke, and similar life-threatening cardiac emergencies. ACLS builds on basic life support with advanced skills such as defibrillation, IV administration, intubation, and ECG analysis.
While CPR and first aid provide foundational emergency response skills, ACLS training prepares you for complex scenarios requiring advanced clinical intervention. Many hospitals and medical facilities require this professional certification for anyone working with cardiac patients.
Our certifications and renewal training courses are 100 percent guaranteed for certification proof and acceptance. Because we use the same criteria and training as classroom courses, our online certifications are just as readily accepted.
All courses are designed by Board-Certified Physicians, adhere to the latest ILCOR Standards and Guidelines, and are Joint Commission (JCAHO) compliant. All courses meet the same guidelines and standards as the ECC/ILCOR and OSHA.
Professional ACLS Training Recertification
ACLS certifications are valid for two years. Like most medical certifications, you must remain current on changing guidelines and procedures - especially true for ACLS due to the hands-on method and technical knowledge involved.
AMC offers convenient online recertification courses that are every bit as thorough, reliable, and accepted as traditional classroom recertification, ensuring you're up-to-date on new procedures while building on your existing skills and training.

Have questions about the ACLS course?
AHA is not an accrediting organization; accreditation of our courses is granted by the Postgraduate Institute for Medicine (PIM), and all courses adhere to the latest ILCOR guidelines.
ACLS certification is required for almost all health care professional careers. Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support is a system of techniques and procedures designed to sustain life after Basic Life Support methods have been employed to resuscitate a person who has suffered from a heart attack or other potentially fatal respiratory condition.
ACLS certification and training significantly enhance medical professionals' ability to save lives. Typically, ACLS provider cards are required for licensed nurses, physicians, and professionals who work under the supervision of licensed physicians, such as paramedics or physician assistants. Professionals who work in intensive care units, emergency rooms, and other medical emergency settings may also require certification.
ACLS certification is not a lifetime pass. Like most medical certifications, you must stay current with evolving guidelines and procedures. Certifications are valid for two years. This is especially true of ACLS, given the hands-on nature and technical knowledge required. Our recertification ensures you are up to date with any new procedures and helps build on the skills and training you already have.
The highly developed curriculum of our online certification courses is constructed in accordance with ILCOR standards and guidelines. Our online courses duplicate classroom lessons, with one significant difference: you can take them on your schedule and at the location of your choice.
With AMC, you can be assured that our online certification and recertification courses meet the same quality standards as classroom training, with added convenience.
Our online courses include thorough study guides with no additional training materials required. Our team of friendly support staff is available seven days a week via live chat, email, or phone.
