CPR Instructor Training

BLS Instructor vs. HeartSaver Instructor

There are all kinds of medical certifications out there and understanding the differences between them all can be tricky. Usually, every certification has its own requirements, curriculum, and materials. The AHA offers two different CPR classes that target different professions or types of responders.

What Is a BLS Instructor?

BLS stands for Basic Life Support which covers CPR/AED with advanced techniques for team rescuers.​


AHA BLS is targeted towards licensed healthcare professionals and healthcare students who are required by their state licensing board or employer to have a CPR certification.​

BLS Instructors are given the highest training of a CPR Instructor. As a BLS Instructor, an individual can teach all classes which include:

  • BLS Provider

  • HeartSaver CPR/AED

  • HeartSaver First Aid

  • HeartSaver Bloodborne Pathogens

The prerequisites to becoming an AHA BLS instructor are:

  • Current American Heart Association AHA BLS Adult, Child, Infant CPR

  • Completion of the online AHA BLS Instructor Essentials course.

  • Attendance of a BLS instructor course.

  • Be monitored while teaching your first class within 6 months.


In addition to these prerequisites, you’ll also need the following course materials to become an instructor:

  • BLS CPR/AED Instructor Manual.

  • BLS CPR, Infant, AED Course Video.

  • BLS CPR, Infant, AED Student Manual.

What Is a HeartSaver Instructor?

HeartSaver course and CPR guidelines are very similar to the AHA BLS course. However, the Heartsaver course does not cover the more advanced and team skill techniques that healthcare providers may use. To offer classes to these people, HeartSaver instructors need to complete a HeartSaver Instructor course.

The prerequisites to becoming an AHA Heartsaver instructor are:

  • Current American Heart Association AHA HeartSaver Adult, Child, Infant CPR, and First Aid certification card. (must include First Aid)

  • Completion of the online AHA HeartSaver Instructor Essentials course.

  • Attendance of a HeartSaver instructor course.

  • Be monitored teaching your first class within 6 months.


In addition to these prerequisites, you’ll also need the following course materials to become an instructor:

  • HeartSaver First Aid CPR/AED Instructor Manual.

  • HeartSaver First Aid CPR/AED Course Video.

  • HeartSaver First Aid CPR/AED Student Manual.
