HeartCode ACLS

Blended Learning (online portion, followed by hands-on skills session) 

HeartCode ACLS Description

Attentive Safety offers the HeartCode online portion of ACLS blended learning that will prepare students for hands-on practice and testing of skills.

It uses a personalized adaptive algorithm that sets students on the most efficient path to content mastery. Students follow a continuously adapting learning path that is personalized by their own inputs: their performance, and their self- reported
confidence level related to each probing question. The course content is presented in the form of self-directed learning content, probing questions, and Cognitive Assessment Activities (CAAs). After completing the eLearning component, students perform their skills with an AHA Instructor or a HeartCode compatible manikin that provides real-time audio and visual feedback. Students must
successfully complete both the cognitive portion and the hands-on skills session to receive an AHA ACLS, or PALS Provider eCard, valid for two years.​

HeartCode ACLS​ Time

Because of the adaptive technology used in these courses, the completion time for the online portion of HeartCode courses varies based on the student’s self-assessment and knowledge of the cognitive material. 
The online portion of HeartCode ACLS can be completed in 6.5 to 7 hours.​
