Instructor Renewal

Remember: Instructors are expected to regularly check the AHA Instructor Network for the most current information and latest updates. You must log in to the Instructor Network at least once every six months to remain active.  You will be deactivated by the network if it has been longer that six months.

If you are due to renew your instructor certification this year, you must be monitored teaching a class, by a Training Center Faculty member, prior to your renewal class.

Disclaimer: The AHA strongly promotes knowledge and proficiency in BLS, ACLS, and PALS and has developed instructional materials for this purpose. Use of these materials in an educational course does not represent course sponsorship by the AHA. Any fees charged for such a course, except for a portion of fees needed for AHA course materials, does not represent income to the Association.
