ACLS online or in class for CA?

So as a new nurse, waiting for a job/interview I was looking into ACLS and found some online programs.

Do online programs qualify you with certification?

Can anyone recommend an online program?

Any good classes in Sacramento area?

Thanks!

I believe you have to do it in a class in a live setting because when I took it we had to run a code and use the manequin and do CPR, and analyze his rhythm's etc...you had to pass all this to get your card (AHA card).

Personally for me, I read most of the book before class and it was not making sense...the actual classroom instruction made it crystal clear to me. GOod luck!

be careful about taking it online. i live in ny and a lot of job postings say that bls/acls only accepted from certain organizations.

bls/aed training required and accepted from only 2 organizations:

american heart association - bls for healthcare providers (cpr & aed) program

american red cross - cpr/aed for the professional rescuer

no online programs from any organization will be accepted

this quote is from a specific hospital near me-so if you take it online, it may limit where you can work.
