Questions & Answers

Frequently asked questions

Is the certification an official AHA or ARC card?

Yes. We're an authorized training site offering American Heart Association (AHA) and American Red Cross (ARC) certifications that are recognized nationwide and accepted by employers, schools, and healthcare programs.

How much does a class cost?

The more people you bring, the less you pay. Classes range from $49.99 to $98.48 per person, depending on group size.

Can I take the course online, or is it in person?

Both. You can train fully in person, or choose a blended option — complete the coursework online at your own pace, then finish with a short in-person skills check.

Do you offer renewals?

Yes. We provide both initial certifications and renewals for BLS, CPR/AED, and First Aid, so you can stay current with your requirements.

Can you train my whole team at our location?

Absolutely! We offer on-site group training for mid to large-sized groups across Maryland, Washington DC and Virginia — we bring the instructors and equipment to you.

How long is CPR certification valid?

Most CPR and BLS certifications are valid for 2 years. We offer renewal courses so you can stay current before your card expires — often in a shorter session than the initial class.

Is CPR certification required for my job in Maryland, Washington DC, or Virginia (DMV)?

Many employers across the DMV — Maryland, Washington DC, and Virginia — require current CPR certification, including healthcare workers, teachers, childcare providers, fitness trainers, and first responders. We're AHA & ARC accredited, so our cards are accepted everywhere.
