Become a Certified BLS, ACLS, or PALS Instructor
Coach Nurse Academy — AHA Training Site | Greensburg, PA
This isn't a weekend course where you pay and walk out certified. You'll watch me teach, then assist, then teach under my direct evaluation — I decide pass or fail.
Why This Is So Intense
I once sat in a BLS class where the instructor spent forty-five minutes on his glory days as a firefighter, never touched a manikin, and passed everyone anyway. A bad instructor doesn't fail quietly — it fails forward, onto every patient the people in that room ever touch. That's why nobody gets handed a card here.
Complete Curriculum
A full teaching toolkit — PowerPoints, videos, or both — used alongside the official AHA course materials.
Real Evaluation
Watch me teach, assist hands-on, then teach under direct evaluation before I decide pass or fail.
Business Built In
Client pipeline, scheduling, and instructor card management handled through Coach Nurse Academy, an AHA Training Site.
The Process
- Watch me teach a real class — not a demo
- Assist hands-on in the room
- Teach under my direct evaluation
- I decide: pass or fail. Nobody passes because they showed up
- Once you pass: full curriculum, materials, and client pipeline handled for you

What You're Actually Getting
I can't guarantee you'll pass — that depends on you. What I do guarantee is real mentorship: direct observation, hands-on correction, and an honest evaluation from someone who has taught this material for years. You're not paying for a certificate. You're paying for the chance to actually earn one.
No. This is a full instructor pathway — you'll be trained from the ground up through observation, assisting, and supervised teaching before you're evaluated.
Before you start, you'll need:
• A current AHA provider card in the course you want to teach (BLS, ACLS, or PALS)
• Completion of the AHA online Instructor Essentials course for that discipline
• Alignment through Coach Nurse Academy, an AHA Training Site (we help you complete this)
You keep your current provider card and clinical background. That's the floor, not the ceiling — the rest is built through the process.
Because when you teach under my name, you're representing me every class, no exceptions. Cutting corners here costs more than money — it costs the people your students end up treating.
