BLS Training Built for Durham’s Healthcare Community
Whether you're starting a healthcare program, beginning a new position, renewing an existing credential, or meeting an employer requirement, BLS training gives you an opportunity to practice the lifesaving skills healthcare professionals may need during a cardiac or respiratory emergency.
This course is designed for healthcare professionals, trained first responders, and students preparing to work in clinical environments. That can include nurses and nursing students, CNAs, medical assistants, dental professionals, EMS personnel, therapists, technicians, home healthcare professionals, and other clinical team members.
Not sure if BLS is the certification your employer or school requires?
Check your program or employer's requirements before registering. BLS and Heartsaver courses serve different audiences, so choosing the correct course matters.
What You’ll Learn in BLS Training
BLS goes beyond simply knowing how to perform CPR. Training focuses on recognizing life-threatening emergencies, delivering high-quality CPR, using an AED, and working effectively with other rescuers when every second matters.
High-Quality CPR
Practice CPR skills for adults, children, and infants with an emphasis on effective compressions and lifesaving response.
AED & Emergency Response
Learn how an AED fits into the response to cardiac arrest and practice integrating AED use with CPR.
Airway & Choking Emergencies
Build skills for responding to respiratory emergencies and severe foreign-body airway obstruction.
Team-Based Resuscitation
Practice the communication and coordinated response skills healthcare professionals may use when multiple rescuers are involved.
Know Before You Arrive
Successful completion of the AHA BLS Provider course includes hands-on participation, Adult CPR and AED skills testing, Infant CPR skills testing, and a written exam. The current AHA passing score for the exam is at least 84%.

Your BLS Certification: What to Expect
BLS certification is commonly required for healthcare professionals and students whose roles may involve responding to cardiac, respiratory, or other life-threatening emergencies.
For the AHA BLS Provider course, participants who successfully complete all course requirements receive a BLS Provider Course Completion eCard. The AHA states that the card is valid for two years.
AHA eCards can also be verified electronically, allowing students and employers to confirm training status.
Before registering: Always verify which BLS credential your employer, school, clinical program, or licensing organization requires.
