The main difference between online certification training and classroom training is convenience and time. AMC understands the busy schedules and ongoing responsibilities medical professionals take on each day. When adding personal commitments to the mix, it can be challenging to find time for additional training. With our online courses, you can receive the same high-quality education while having the flexibility to learn on your own schedule, in the comfort of your own home. Our advanced curriculum is developed in accordance with ILCOR’s standards and guidelines, and our online courses cover the same material as classroom courses. No more wasting time and weekends commuting to a classroom; our courses are accessible at any time and location, allowing you to have the freedom to plan your study time around your other obligations. If you needed to be certified by tomorrow, we’d be able to accommodate those needs.
