Mandatory ACLS/PALS Videos To Watch Before your Course

Want to spend less time in the classroom? Watching the following videos before your skills testing can make your class quicker and more efficient. Take a few minutes to review them—it’ll be well worth it.

Note: If you’re taking BLS or CPR & First Aid, you can skip these videos.

RQI Online Course – What to Expect

We send out online course invitations three times daily between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. To access the American Heart Association course, you’ll need a computer or tablet—phones are not compatible.

The course adapts to your current knowledge level, so its length varies based on your experience and skills. Here’s what to expect for timing:

BLS: 1–2 hours
ACLS or PALS: 3–4 hours

The best part? You can pause and return to the course anytime—you don’t need to complete it in one sitting.

ACLS OR PALS - What to Expect

Taking the ACLS or PALS course? Here’s exactly what to expect on your testing day to make things simple and stress-free.

When it’s your scheduled date and time, head to your testing location with these essentials:

  • Your RQI login credentials
  • The entry instructions sent to you via email or text
Once you arrive, put on a pair of gloves and log into the computer using your provided credentials. You can use either the keyboard or touch screen. Follow the on-screen directions to start your skills session. Here’s the key part—your skills test will be guided by a VAM (voice-assisted manikin). Think of it as your virtual instructor. There won’t be an in-person instructor on-site. But don’t worry, if you have any questions or run into issues, you can call our office for assistance.

BLS or CPR/First-aid - What to Expect

Taking the BLS or CPR and First-Aid course? Here’s what to expect.

On the date and time you selected, head to your testing location. Bring your phone and be ready—the instructor will contact you via text or through the room’s cameras to begin your skills testing.

Your virtual American Heart Association instructor will guide you step-by-step through the required skills. Once you’ve completed the session, you will receive your certification card the very same day.

Performing CPR is Physically Exhausting

Performing chest compressions during CPR can be tough on your hands, wrists, arms, and body. If you have any existing physical issues like pain, carpal tunnel, weakness, or an injury, it’s best to wait until you feel fully recovered before joining a class.

Feeling tired or need extra time to complete your skills? No problem. Call our office, and we’ll reschedule you at no additional cost. You can also stay in the room to finish up your skills at your own pace.
