Easy to use (I renewed AHA ACLS). Online portion was available immediately. For the hands on part at CPR-VAM: I felt very well prepared with the detailed videos provided- from where to go in the building to how to best use the VAM. Practice mode and unlimited re-tries if needed.

This provider truly goes above and beyond! It was my first time completing BLS/ACLS training through an online and in-person format, and I was very impressed with the entire experience. The room for the in-person portion was clean and organized. The instructions and signs were clear and easy to follow, including simple directions for using the manikin and laptop. Another great feature is that they are one of the few providers offering a bundle discount for BLS, ACLS, and PALS, which is an excellent value. I also had an issue and couldn’t make it to my scheduled in-person portion. Their rescheduling process was fast and easy, and they were very helpful in getting everything taken care of. I’m so glad I found this place! 🔥 I highly recommend this provider for BLS, ACLS, and PALS training. It was a great experience from start to finish!

I was initially hesitant to use the Voice-Assisted Manikin (VAM) for the skills portion but it's always good to try new tech. The experience was awesome. The VAM provides real-time feedback on your performance, and probably a finer accuracy compared to an instructor observing and giving feedback. The process for booking with CPR VAM was easy. I booked on the weekend. Only few steps: 1) make a profile online before arriving. 2) an email provides the codes for entering the building and office. 3) log-in and start the exam 4) receive your ecard via email shortly after. Great experience and this tech is definitely the way to refine your skills and build more confidence. I highly recommend booking with CPR VAM, so give it a try!

The directions and process was easy to follow although I had difficulty with the two person cpr. For some reason my hand position I had for the 60 was now not good enough. I was given directions and adjusted my position , I was then able to pass. I believe I was coming in on an angle And it was more the downward pressure I needed . Child cpr was easily completed Still all completed in 30 min. I like this much better than in a class!
