So convenient and low-stress, it guides you all the way through and you can totally take your time with it all. Nice feedback throughout as well 🙂👍🏼
I've been using this service for ACLS and CPR for many years. It's fantastic. Always high quality, professional, efficient, and very straightforward. I love that it's family-owned and supports our local businesses. It's a very professional and stellar operation. Thank you for being such a great resource in our community.
Very smooth & easy process! Got it last minute when i needed it as well.
Super easy, clear instructions
This might be my favorite BLS renewal place from now on. The self-serve setup is genius ! just a small room, mannequins, and a computer guiding you through the skills test. No pressure, no one watching or judging except the computer 😂.

It was super easy and efficient. I was literally in and out in about 15 minutes and even got a little CPR workout in.

Whoever thought of this business model is brilliant. Healthcare workers have to renew BLS forever, so this is such a smart and convenient setup. Highly recommend!
Easy to follow. Great learning experience as always!
The experience was quick and easy, I'll definitely be using CPR VAM again for my next recertification! Thank you.
Everything was fantastic. The online modules were easy to follow, and I felt like I learned a lot. The in person skills test was also very straightforward and quick. I did appreciate the helpful YouTube videos that were sent to me ahead of time. Thank you so much.😊
Straight forward. Clean mannequins. Easy to locate.
Perfect experience. I've been an RN for 10 years and this has been the best BLS experience I've ever had. Less skilled providers might need something different, but more skilled providers will appreciate the simplicity and lack of onerous BS.
Very convenient and low pressure!
It was convenient, easy to understand and use the computer and the mannequins. Was super helpful that the computer let you know how you were doing and what to correct.
fast and efficient! card available right away
Very helpful all equipment was well placed and the training session were well explained all in all good learning experience
I felt very well prepared for my skills pass off. The computer and VAM system are easy to use. I recommend this company for anyone who needs their BLS/ACLS/PALS certification and I will use them in the future!
Prompts were easy to follow and environment was clean. They provided information to contact someone for help if needed. The program also provided great feedback during the actual BLS/ACLS skills check. I learned a lot. Will definitely be renewing my certifications at this place again!
It’s user friendly. I’ll use it again after 2 years for my BLS and ACLS recertifications.

AHA certifications are valid for two years. We highly recommend scheduling your renewal session at least 30 days before your current card expires to prevent any gaps in your employment or clinical eligibility.

Our Walnut Creek facility features advanced Voice-Assisted Manikins (VAM). Instead of an instructor just checking a box, the manikin gives you real-time audio coaching on your compression depth, rate, and recoil. It ensures you leave feeling 100% confident in your real-world skills.
