What does the PALS Certification Course Include?
Pediatric Advanced Life Support is a systematic approach to pediatric assessment that goes beyond basic life support for infants and children. PALS certification, as defined by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR), is the development of the necessary knowledge and skills to manage critically ill infants and children in pediatric emergencies, resulting in improved outcomes.
The specialized training is designed for health care providers responsible for responding to pediatric emergencies, both in and out of the hospital. That includes emergency responders, ER personnel, pediatric care providers, ICU staff, critical care professionals, EMTs, and first aid responders.
Our PALS certification online is just as thorough, reliable, and accepted as traditional classroom certification. Our certifications and PALS renewal courses are 100% guaranteed for proof of certification and acceptance. Upon completion, you'll receive your PALS card as an ecard valid for two years.
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.

Have questions about Pediatric Advanced Life Support?
Many people mistakenly believe that AHA is an accrediting organization. However, this is not the case; our courses are accredited by the Postgraduate Institute for Medicine (PIM). All of our courses are created by practicing physicians and adhere to the same standards as the most recent ILCOR guidelines.
Pediatric Advanced Life Support certification means that the trained health care professional can recognize and intervene in cases of pediatric cardiopulmonary arrest or other cardiovascular emergencies (infants and children).
A certification in PALS is mandatory for those working in the emergency response unit, emergency medicine, intensive and critical care. Completing a PALS course is also required for many nurses, physicians, and paramedics.
AMC's PALS certification covers a range of skills for recognizing and treating infants and children at risk for cardiopulmonary arrest. Skills testing includes a systematic approach to assessment, effective respiratory management, defibrillation, intraosseous access, fluid administration, and effective cardiopulmonary resuscitation and team dynamics.
Like most medical certifications, you must remain informed of the changing guidelines and procedures in Pediatric Advanced Life Support. Most certifications expire after two years, making PALS renewal necessary. Our renewal course ensures you are up to date with any new procedures and helps build on the skills and training you have already received.
The only real difference is time. AMC understands the time constraints and growing list of responsibilities all medical professionals face today. Our highly advanced curriculum gives you the training you need whenever and wherever you need it. All our course materials are developed 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. You no longer have to spend your weekends cramped in a stuffy classroom. What's more, you can take our PALS classes anytime without waiting for open classes or times to fit your schedule.
