As per the AHA® guideline, the Instructor training consists of three stages:
-
Instructor Essentials (online)
The Instructor Essentials is a self-directed online course that includes information needed to teach the chosen discipline. This is provided after hands on skills testing is completed.
-
Discipline-Specific Module (classroom)
The Discipline Specific Module uses a combination of various instructor-led and video-based lessons, providing the instructor candidate with the opportunity to practice teaching the dynamics of responding to resuscitation as part of a team in simulated cases with an emphasis on effective communication and teamwork.
-
Mentoring
Within six months of completing the Instructor Course, a faculty member monitors the Instructor candidate as he/she teaches classes in his/her chosen discipline. (Please note that Training Center Coordinators may require additional monitoring.)
IMPORTANT:
The American Heart Association requires that:
- BLS instructors must be at least 18 years of age
- Have a current American Heart Association BLS CPR Card
- Proficiant in performing all BLS Skills
