Traditional Classroom is an instructor led course presenting American Heart Association material. It involves student participation, practice and demonstration. The class length varies depending on course presented. Students receive their American Heart Association certification cards at the end of class.

Fast Track Option offers the instructional portion of the class online and the practice and skills check with an instructor. The student can receive their certification card in just a day or two if desired. The average time online is much less than in the traditional classroom and the student can train at home and at their own pace. The practice and skills check with an instructor lasts about 30 - 45 minutes and the student receives their American Heart Association certification card at the end. Multiple skills check appointments are available weekly and the student may start the course at any time. 

Skills Check Only is for students who have already obtained the course completion certificate from onlineaha.org and only need the practice and skills verification. The practice and skills check with an instructor lasts about 30 - 45 minutes and the student receives their American Heart Association certification card at the end. Multiple skills check appointments are available each week.
