Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS)

Michigan Medicine AHA Training Center is using the HeartCode BLENDED learning format for New Provider/Re-Certification. This is a personalized learning path that adapts in real time to a learner's performance and skills.

 

The blended format includes an online self-directed, comprehensive eLearning program, along with an in-person Hands-on Testing Session. 

 

What does this mean for you as a learner?

  1. Everyone will need to register for a Hands-On testing session.
  2. Once MM AHA has processed your registration, you will receive an email from CSC-Registration with your confirmation and directions on how to complete HeartCode.
