Excellent location for ACLS and PALS. Wonderful video link and mannequins that are electronically set up. I used the Scranton parking app for convenience. Certificates issue upon completing the process.
Done both ACLS/PALS renewals with code One. Ver convenient. Do the online work on your own time and self scheduled the skills session, lots of options of times and locations
Code one Training is a great place to practice your ACLS & PALS skills. The mannequins, technology, & feedback system on the computer are super helpful. I will definitely go back in the future to renew my certifications
I’ve used Code One for almost 10 years now to stay up to date on my BLS, ACLS, and PALS certifications. Each cycle they offer more and more user friendly and comprehensive education materials and processes. I will keep using them for years to come! -Ryan (Emergency Medicine PA)
I highly endorse Code One Training Solutions for anyone in need of BLS, ACLS, or PALS credentials. Their program is exceptionally well-organized, with a perfect blend of convenience and hands-on learning. The facility is spotless and equipped with top-notch training materials, ensuring a professional and engaging experience. If you’re looking for a reliable and professional place for resuscitation training, Code One Training Solutions is the clear choice. I couldn’t recommend them more!
Online portion was easy and thorough as it relates to pals and ACLS and bls and was very user friendly regarding use of computer and equipment with realtime feedback.
I had a wonderful experience with Code One! I completed the ACLS and PALS online portion with AHA and scheduled my appointment for skills with Code One. Cory was a pleasure to work with and provided great feedback. Overall, great experience and I will be sure to contact them when I need to renew.
4th cycle re-certifying with this group. Keeps everything straight-forward and allows bundle recertification skills for BLS, ACLS, and PALS with up-to-date equipment. Highly recommend!
Very good in depth review of ACLS/PALS skills and the physiology behind things, not just reciting memorized doses and algorithms.
Renewing my BLS/ACLS/PALS with CodeOne was so helpful and convenient! I worked with Sam R. and she was incredibly knowledgeable. I would absolutely recommend this process to anyone in need of certification/renewal.
Excellent PALS class with John. Highly recommend this course and it is catered to your medical professional with real life scenarios.
Super easy to book online; complete the learning modules from home and then go in person for a skills session for an hour or less. Santina was a great resource and educator for my PALS session.
I worked with Santina (ACLS/PALS Scenarios) and Amanda (skills check). Check-in was easy and well-coordinated. The staff were personable and made it a point to ask about my specific practice environment. Rather than merely teaching to the test, they did an excellent job of tailoring their instruction and feedback to contextualize the content so that I was able to apply it directly to my personal practice. The best ACLS/PALS experience I have had--I look forward to recertifying with them in two years!
Great class for BLS, ACLS, and PALS. Phenomenal instruction and also very convenient. Thank you!
Santina was awesome the entire way through the course. I wish I could renew my PALS with her every time!
It was a great working with Code One for my PALS certification. It was a pleasure working with Dr. Arancio Arno. The whole process was smooth.
I had a really great experience with Code One and Dr. Santina Arancio Arno. She was very knowledgeable and didn't just tell me what to do, but really explained why we do the interventions for ACLS/BLS/PALS.
Getting my PALS here was easy! With their proctors being remote, I was able to schedule an appointment here when everywhere else was booked out for weeks. My proctor Santina and the customer service team were all awesome and guided me through the process really well. I’ll definitely be getting my renewal with Code One.
Awesome! Seamless renewal of ACLS, pals and bls. Santina was great. Very patient with me and gave good reviews of algorithms. Will definitely recommend code one to my fellow nurses.
Very knowledgeable and kind. Would highly recommend for anyone needing to certify for PALS in the future
This was an awesome PALS course! Santina took the time to make the expectations, skills and rationale extremely clear. I LOVED using the mannequins with computer feedback! Usually mannequins are these stiff human shaped plastic things that another person watches you and decides if things were done correctly based on what they saw, but with computer feedback you really get to FEEL how deep your compressions are, you the squeeze of the bag, it’s just amazing having direct and instant feedback! Absolutely loved it! Very happy to have completed this PALS course!
Great skills session. Would recommend Santina to anyone that needs ACLS or PALS.
First time using code one for a recertification. PALS skill course was very well taught via webcam. Instructions were very easy to follow. Would recert again here.
This was my first time doing a virtual skills for PALS and Robert was very good and made me feel confident. Thank you for the great job Robert.
Was perfect for getting my PALS before my travel assignment! Quick and painless process

FAQ

What is PALS Provider Training?

PALS Provider is a hybrid PALS training class for healthcare providers by the American Heart Association®, designed to help healthcare providers learn or refresh their pediatric advanced life support skills

 

Code One Offers PALS training through a Self Guided Learning™ program, where learners complete online coursework through the HeartCode® online learning module, and then come to a nearby center for an individual hands-on skills assessment appointment. Appointments are offered Monday through Saturday between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM across 100+ locations, so you can come when it’s convenient for you.

Is PALS Training approved by the American Heart Association (AHA)?

Yes. PALS Provider Training is an approved American Heart Association program that results in a two-year American Heart Association PALS Provider eCard. If you’re looking to complete your AHA PALS renewal, you’re in the right place.

Is the PALS Provider eCard the same thing as the PALS Provider certification?

Yes. After successfully completing PALS Provider training with any American Heart Association provider, learners will receive either a physical course completion card or an emailed eCard, often colloquially referred to as a “PALS Provider certification.” While the American Heart Association does not use the term certification, you can be confident that the BLS Provider eCard you earn at Code One fulfills your PALS training requirement.

When and where are PALS Provider skills appointments offered?

Most Code One Training Centers accept appointments Monday through Saturday from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM, though the exact hours of operation may vary by location. Code One has over 100 locations, which offer PALS Provider course skills sessions by appointment. 

See our list of locations here.

Do I need to complete the HeartCode® online PALS training before scheduling a PALS Provider skills Session?

Yes. We require that the HeartCode® online PALS course be completed before you schedule the PALS Provider skills session to ensure that you have the coursework done and are ready for your appointment.

What’s the difference between PALS Provider Training and PALS Provider Skills Only?

PALS Provider Training includes the required HeartCode® online ACLS training course, plus a hands-on skills verification appointment at Code One. This is the course that most learners require.

 

PALS Provider Skills Only is just the PALS skills assessment portion of the PALS Provider course, and is restricted to learners who have already completed the American Heart Association HeartCode® online PALS training course and have their certificate dated in the past year.

 

Both the HeartCode® online PALS course and the hands-on skills session are required to earn your eCard, even if you are looking to renew your PALS Provider eCard.

How long will it take to complete the PALS Provider Training?

The PALS Provider Training includes theory (HeartCode® online PALS training course) and skills verification (PALS Provider Skills).

 

The HeartCode® online PALS training course takes about 2-6 hours to complete, depending on your previous knowledge, competency, and confidence. Since HeartCode® is an adaptive learning platform, it will adapt to your learning needs: If you find yourself benefiting from a more robust learning process, the platform will shift to incorporate more videos, examples, and practice opportunities to help you understand. If you’re an experienced healthcare provider, the platform will adjust to focus on knowledge verification.

 

The hands-on PALS skills assessment takes about an hour. Experienced rescuers may complete the skills more quickly.

 

All together, the AHA PALS course runs between 3-7 hours, depending on your proficiency and experience levels.

 

What is the HeartCode® online PALS Course?

HeartCode® online PALS training is the American Heart Association’s theory portion of its Pediatric Advanced Life Support Provider Training.

The course is adaptive and will adjust content based on the prior knowledge of the learner. Topics covered include:

  • Respiratory management
  • Shock
  • Pediatric cardiac arrest management

 

In order to meet PALS Provider eCard requirements, learners are required to complete both the HeartCode® online PALS training and the hands-on skills session.

What does a PALS Provider Self-Guided Skills session look like?

During your PALS skills assessment session, you will independently perform skills on a CPR Verification Station learning center which provides real-time feedback to help you master compressions and ventilations for both adults and infants. Our team will remotely supervise and will be available to assist if needed, but you will have your session without ongoing assistance from an instructor.

Your PALS training skills session includes 6 skills:

  • Adult compressions
  • Adult ventilations
  • Two-rescuer adult CPR
  • Infant compressions
  • Infant ventilations
  • Two-rescuer infant CPR

 

Can I complete my BLS, ACLS, and PALS training at the same skills session?

Yes. Code One’s Healthcare Provider Bundle Package allows you to complete the online portion of the HeartCode online BLS, ACLS, and PALS courses, and then come in for a single skills appointment to cover skills for all three programs.
