Please note that PALS Initial by American Heart Association suggested curriculum is 12-16 hours or 2 days. With Healthforce we try our best to complete the discipline within a day (8-10 hours), depending on class size and shorten breaks. Classes more than 6 students may take 10-16 hours. Your instructor may inform you if your class may need a 2nd day/extension day. Usually we cater small class sizes, so expect to finish training in an average of 8-10 hours for initial, and 4-6 hours for renewal. It is required at least to take the Pre test exam, which will be emailed to you after your registration as your borderline knowledge about the PALS course. Try the best highest score that you can attain. Print and bring your certificate during your training schedule. Good Luck. If you have more clarifications or questions please do not hesitate to call us at 201-2227720.
