Certifications expire after two years. After expiration, you will need to retake the course, both online and in-person, in order to get recertified. If your certification has not yet expired, you have the option to challenge the course, meaning you can study on your own and we will test your skills without having to repeat the class. To set up a course challenge appointment, fill out the form below. Under Course Type, select course challenge.
Anyone can perform CPR! Below is a video by the American Heart Association (AHA) showing just how easy performing basic hands-only CPR can be.

- "Stayin' Alive" by the Bee Gees.
- "Uptown Funk" by Bruno Mars.
- "Crazy in Love" by Beyoncé featuring Jay-Z.
- "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It" by Will Smith.
