BLS, CPR, ACLS and PALS classes in Spokane & North Idaho

Who approves these programs
Who approves these: No state approves CPR classes. Employers set the requirement: most hospital and clinic jobs ask for the American Heart Association's BLS Provider card, and some also accept the American Red Cross's BLS. Cards last two years. A course with an online part still ends with an in-person skills check, either with an instructor or at an approved manikin station. Source: The American Heart Association's BLS course options.
Checked Sep 29, 2026 against each provider's own page (the AHA and Red Cross class finders couldn't be read here). Dates, costs and approvals change: confirm with the program before you pay. A listing isn't an endorsement, and schools don't pay to be listed here.
