What This PALS Course Covers
Detailed curriculum coming soon
We're finalizing the lesson-by-lesson outline for our PALS course. The training itself is built around the latest American Heart Association ECC guidelines and covers every algorithm, skill, and assessment you need to be exam-ready and clinically confident.
The CPR was super easy to follow. The video lessons were simple, and the visual examples made the steps much easier to remember :)

Home Care Aide
I decided to buy the CPR course after something scary happened while my husband and I were at a restaurant. A man at the table next to us started choking and couldn't breathe. Thankfully, someone helped him in time and everything turned out okay! After that, I realized I wanted to know what to do if something like that ever happens again. Thank you for this CPR & AED course, everything was clear and really well done!

Who Needs PALS Certification?
PALS is the pediatric counterpart to ACLS. Children compensate well right up until they crash, so PALS is built around recognizing trouble early — before it becomes cardiac arrest.
Pediatric Emergency & Critical Care
PED nurses and physicians, PICU and NICU staff, pediatric hospitalists, and pediatric rapid response teams.
General ED & Family Medicine
ER staff at community hospitals that see pediatric patients, family practice physicians, and urgent care providers.
Pre-Hospital Pediatric
Paramedics, pediatric transport teams, flight crews, and EMS field supervisors.
Operating Room & Procedural
Pediatric anesthesia, CRNAs at children's hospitals, GI suite nurses doing pediatric sedation, and dental anesthesia teams.
Specialty Pediatric
Pediatric cardiology, oncology, pulmonology, and dialysis staff caring for medically fragile children.
School & Community Pediatric
School nurses, pediatric clinic RNs and MAs, lactation consultants in hospital settings, and child life specialists in code-eligible roles.
Why Choose Online PALS Certification?
Pediatric resuscitation hinges on weight-based dosing, age-specific assessment, and recognizing respiratory failure before it becomes arrest. Those are knowledge skills, and they're well-suited to self-paced study where you can sit with a Broselow chart open and actually work through scenarios at your own speed.
PALS is also a course many providers take only every two years. The certification burden is real — a full in-person class can be a lost workday. Online lets you work through pediatric megacodes, and be back to your normal schedule the same evening.
Our PALS certification is accepted nationwide by most pediatric clinics, urgent cares, and many hospital systems. Check your employer's policy first if you're unsure — and if they don't accept it, we refund you in full.
Frequently Asked Questions About PALS Certification
Got questions? We've got answers.
How is PALS different from ACLS?
PALS focuses specifically on infants and children, while ACLS covers adult cardiac emergencies. PALS addresses pediatric-specific issues like respiratory failure, upper-airway obstruction, weight-based dosing, and pediatric arrhythmias with age-appropriate algorithms. Many pediatric and ED roles require both.
Is online PALS certification accepted by employers?
Our certifications are based on the latest American Heart Association guidelines and are accepted nationwide by hospitals, clinics, and healthcare facilities. We offer a full money-back guarantee if your employer doesn't accept your certification.
How long does the course take and how many exam attempts do I get?
Most providers finish PALS certification in 3–5 hours, fully self-paced. The exam is included with unlimited attempts, so you can review explanations and retake it as many times as needed at no extra cost.
What is the passing score?
You need to score at least 80% on the final exam to pass and receive your provider card. Detailed explanations are available between attempts so you can target weak areas — pediatric weight-based dosing is a common one.
When do I get my PALS provider card?
Your digital PALS provider card is available for download instantly after you pass the final exam — no waiting period. Save the PDF, print a wallet card, and send it to credentialing the same day.
Do I need PALS certification or recertification?
Choose certification if this is your first time, or if your previous PALS card has been expired for a long time. Choose recertification if you currently hold — or recently held — a valid PALS card and just need to renew it.
What is your money-back guarantee?
If your employer rejects our PALS certification for any reason, contact us with proof and we'll issue a full refund.
