If you’re thinking about taking a CPR class online, check the requirements first. Most employers and hospitals do not accept online-only CPR certifications. In the medical field, hands-on skills are too important to learn from behind a screen.

In New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New York, in-person CPR training is required for healthcare workers. Even many non-healthcare employers insist on it.

Recently, a student came to our New Jersey training center for a Heartsaver First Aid CPR AED class. She told us she was “already certified online,” but her employer wouldn’t accept it. After completing our 4-hour in-person course, she said:

“I understand why they didn’t accept my certification—there’s nothing like practicing on a real manikin, hearing real scenarios, and using the actual equipment. This was the best CPR class I’ve ever taken.”

Why In-Person Matters
The American Heart Association’s Basic Life Support (BLS) and Heartsaver First Aid CPR courses are taught by live instructors who give real-time feedback. You’re not just watching videos—you’re getting:

Personal guidance from experienced nurse instructors
Corrections on technique when needed
Realistic scenarios to help you feel prepared
Practice with actual equipment so you’re confident in an emergency
