Please Note! The American Heart Association is launching a new platform to manage and assign course completion certifications (eCards). The migration from the old system and the implementation of the new system will take place from May 31st through June 5th suspending the ability for eCards to be sent during this time. Any courses taking place between 5/30 and 6/5 will have eCards sent to students by 6/6. We are sorry for any inconvenience. Please contact our customer service specialists at 877-277-6778 if you require a written confirmation of course completion prior to receiving your eCard.
