In my opinion AHCA is great. I really enjoy and appreciate the lifetime renewal. Pay once your good for the rest of your life without having to pay every time to retake the test and get your certificate. Good stuff!
Easy, informative, inexpensive and quick. Online chat assistance available for any issues. I appreciated a way to get re-certified without attending class during Covid. Also the modified info to give CPR when the patient may have Covid.
The CPR/AED, First Aid course was full of helpful information and easy to follow. The videos helped with visual instruction. The ability to take this online and not have to be in a class for a whole day was beneficial to me.
