Instructor Certification Process

- BLS Instructor Training: BLS Instructor training is conducted by a C4CPR faculty member at one of our locations. Participants learn about the Mission of the American Heart Association, goals for Emergency Cardiovascular Care, affiliation with a Training Center, and the programs that they will be able to instruct as an AHA instructor. Participants will evaluate skills being performed to become familiar with the skills testing process.
- Skills and Content Competency: Following the instructor training, candidates will attend a BLS Skills Testing session by appointment at a C4CPR Training Center. The instructor candidate will be tested on BLS skills competency and will complete the written exams for BLS Provider and BLS Instructor.
- Observation: Instructor candidates observe BLS class(es) taught by C4CPR instructors until they feel comfortable teaching the course independently. This step can be conducted at any C4CPR Training Center.
- Monitoring: Instructor candidates teach a course independently under the supervision of C4CPR Training Center Faculty. Faculty will evaluate instructor candidate performance against a rubric of requirements from the American Heart Association. Successful monitoring will result in issuance of a BLS Instructor certification from the American Heart Association.
This step may be completed at a C4CPR Training Center (included) or off-site for an additional fee. - Affiliation: BLS Instructors may join an existing training site or establish a new training site. All instructors must be affiliated with an American Heart Association Training Center to issue certification cards for courses they instruct.
