The WKU CPR Training Center is pleased to announce an expansion of its training offerings with a monthly Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) Provider course. This new opportunity is designed to serve healthcare professionals, students, and community partners seeking Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support training in a more consistent and accessible format. Beginning immediately, the ACLS Provider course will be offered monthly, contingent upon a minimum enrollment of three (3) participants.
In addition, the WKU CPR Training Center will offer ACLS Mega Code Skills sessions. These sessions are designed for participants who would benefit from focused hands-on practice, remediation, refresher training, or additional preparation related to ACLS critical skills and team-based resuscitation scenarios.
“Expanding our ACLS offerings allows us to better meet the needs of healthcare professionals, students, and community partners who are seeking advanced, hands-on training,” said Gerita Cook, WKU CPR Training Center Coordinator. “By offering both a monthly provider course and Mega Code skills sessions, we are creating more flexible opportunities for participants to build confidence and strengthen critical life-saving skills.”
Healthcare providers, students, and community members interested in enrolling in upcoming ACLS courses or skills sessions are encouraged to visit the WKU CPR Training Center website for additional information and registration details.
