NOTE-The AHA has implemented substantial updates to their BLS course. The new curriculum will be taught starting February 1, 2021. Because of these changes, all BLS eCard holders will need to take the full class when it is time to recertify. Recertification classes are expected to resume in 2023, in order for everyone to take the updated BLS for Healthcare Providers class prior to recertifying.
