Very well done! And the experience was a breeze. Just watch the videos they suggest before to test your skills!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Mikayla — we’re so glad everything went smoothly! It’s great to hear the suggested videos helped you feel prepared. We appreciate your kind words and recommendation, and we look forward to assisting you again.
Exceptional experience. I had passed CPR skill evaluation tests more than five times in different locations across the world and this one was the most convenient and fastest so far! Please make sure you read and follow the instructions in the emails sent to you after the registration and watch recommended videos (worth just 30 min of your time if not less than that). That all will set you up for 100% success on your first try. As someone more experienced, I needed just 18 min to prove my skills with cleaning up the mannequins included. Thank you!

This was such a convenient and quick way to get my ACLS renewed! I was able to make an appointment to go in for skills the next day. They provided so much helpful information on how to access the building and how to get the best scores when testing on the manikin. A bit more expensive than other classes, but worth it if you need your certification stat!

The experience was great! I do think there should be a lower price offered for experience and research instead of taking it brand new.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Donna — we’re glad your experience was great and appreciate the helpful suggestion about offering lower-priced options for items used for experience and research. Unfortunately the AHA Heartcode course is the same price regardless of cert status.
