9. How do I use Above Bar CPR to manage CE's?
We have a place for you to store digital copies of your CE's on your user profile. We also upload CE's from classes you have taken with us directly on to your Responder Profile. These can be accessed and downloaded at your convenience. To add classes that you have taken elsewhere, simply add the digital file to your CE/certificate manager. You can also keep digital copies of non-CE certificates here. Example: keep a copy of your CPR card here.
10. I did not take a class from Above Bar CPR and would like to be reminded of my expiration?
Just click on the appropriate certification from the cart on the right in your profile, and put in the expiration. Now you can rest assured knowing that we will be reminding you 60 and 30 days before your certification will expire. It is also convenient to have all of your certifications in one place.

Most of our classes require kneeling on the floor and performing chest compressions on a manikin. We recommend wearing comfortable clothes that will allow you to perform these tasks without hindrance.
12. How long is my certification good for?
We teach only American Heart Association classes. These are the most widely accepted certifications and are valid for 2 years, unless your employer requires more frequent renewal. |
