The American Heart Association Heartsaver CPR AED course is designed to prepare non-healthcare professionals to respond effectively during life-threatening emergencies. The training focuses on recognizing cardiac arrest, providing high-quality CPR, using an Automated External Defibrillator (AED), and assisting someone who is choking until emergency medical services take over.
Unlike professional healthcare courses such as BLS, ACLS, or PALS, Heartsaver CPR AED is intended for individuals who may encounter emergencies in everyday environments rather than clinical settings. The course emphasizes practical skills that can be used at work, in schools, recreational facilities, community organizations, and at home.
Through a combination of online learning and a hands-on skills assessment, participants build the confidence to act quickly and appropriately when every second counts.
The Heartsaver CPR AED program provides both the knowledge and practical techniques needed to respond safely during common cardiac and breathing emergencies. By the end of the course, you’ll understand when CPR is required, how to perform it correctly, and how to use an AED confidently while waiting for emergency responders.

Teachers, classroom assistants, school administrators, daycare employees, and childcare providers are often responsible for the wellbeing of children throughout the day. CPR and AED training helps them respond appropriately if a medical emergency occurs before professional help arrives.
Many employers encourage designated staff members to complete CPR certification as part of workplace health and safety initiatives. Supervisors, managers, office personnel, safety coordinators, and human resources teams often complete Heartsaver CPR AED training to improve workplace emergency preparedness.
Individuals working in gyms, sports clubs, recreational programs, and fitness centers regularly supervise people engaged in physical activity. Learning CPR and AED skills enables them to respond quickly if someone experiences a sudden cardiac emergency during training or competition.
Community groups, religious organizations, youth programs, and nonprofit organizations frequently recommend CPR certification for volunteers and team leaders. Having trained individuals available can improve emergency readiness during public events and community activities.
Receive an official AHA Heartsaver CPR AED Provider eCard upon successful completion of your skills assessment. The certification is widely accepted by employers and organizations throughout the United States.
