- American Heart Association advanced life support courses for various age groups (ACLS, PALS, NRP, PEARS) are acceptable as continuing education.
- The ASBN will allow ten (10) contact hours for initial training or retraining if it occurs during the two-year timeframe immediately preceding license renewal. (Chapter 2, Section VII, E.1)
- CPR does not count for continuing education.
- A copy of the ACLS, PALS, NRP or PEARS card will suffice as proof of completion. The class roster is not adequate.
You will receive your American Heart Association course completion card on the day of the course.
