Taking a BLS Class
Basic Life Support Training
The American Red Cross offers BLS training for individuals and teams, and courses that are held entirely in person, or through our blended Simulation Learning experience, which combines online classwork with in-person skills sessions. This way, you can learn on your schedule - and in the way that suits you best. Regardless of which type of course you choose, you'll receive instruction from world-class professionals, as well as science-based information that includes the latest protocols, so you can deliver care to those in need and help improve patient outcomes.
Providing BLS Care
For BLS providers, when emergencies arise, it's your job to be able to provide care to whomever is in need. That's why Red Cross BLS classes cover best practices for delivering care to infants, children and adults. And because skills can be lost if they're not used regularly, we also offer refresher materials and a printout of some basic BLS steps that can help you stay sharp between calls.

Basic Life Support
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Joy Ann4 years agoI registered same week and got my money's worth. It was worth the trip. Excellent teaching methods. Loved our instructor. She allows you to make mistakes and do not pressure you. She also grouped us in the second group work. She allowed us to work as a team. Loved my classmates too and my group mates. I was the least experienced in this kind of training but because of them, I had a great time learning the lesson and learning from my mistakes. Loved our group. Thanks for the encouragement and great teamwork!

Very Engaging + Informative
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.cnastudent3 weeks agoI have been working as a Certified Nursing Assistant for nearly 3.5 years now in long-term care, but looking to move into the hospital setting often requires a BLS certification. I was able to book this class, then take both the learning and demonstrative portions in-person in the same day. The instructor made things interesting and didn't make the class feel super daunting and strung out. The group demonstrations were engaging as it helped gain a better sense of what things are like in a ... real-life emergency. I would absolutely recommend.

BLS class
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Billiee2 weeks agoI recently took the BLS class as I needed it for nursing school and it went well beyond my expectations. Etty (sorry for the spelling, definitely not how he spells his name) was amazing. He was funny and his positive uplifting attitude made it easier to learn. I would recommend this class to everyone and I will be returning when it is time to renew my BLS.

Hybrid Online/In-Person Healthcare BLS
This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.Hybrid4 weeks agoI thought the CPR class was well-organized and informative overall. The instructors were knowledgeable and did a great job demonstrating the hands-on skills. However, I felt that the in-person portion was a bit too long, especially since we had already completed the online class and covered all the material there. It would have been more efficient if the in-person session focused mainly on practicing and demonstrating the hands-on skills rather than re-reviewing everything we had already learned online.

Good for both Newbies and Healthcare Veterans
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Silphy1 month agoI've taken several CPR + BLS courses over my healthcare career and I feel this one is the most comprehensive. It seems to use the most updated info, so even someone like me who's been working in healthcare for a while learned a few new things. Also, they use mannequins for CPR that have indicator lights that light up in real time to show if your compression rhythm is approi, which makes it much easier to know what the appropriate compression rate should feel like. I recommend this to anyone ... going into healthcare for the first time or looking to stay up to date with their knowledge.
