PRE-REQUISITE COMPONENT

Introductory Statements

The pre-requisite component of all formats of the ALS course ensures that candidates have read the reading materials provided, and have accessed some of the online learning materials that are core to successfully passing the ALS course. Students are required to correctly answer all 20 MCQ questions provided to pass the pre-requisite component of the course. Multiple attempts are allowed. This is meant to guide students toward using the provided learning materials in order to obtain the basic core knowledge required for the course. 

Online Lectures

• High Quality CPR
• Cardiac Arrest ECG rhythms
• Cardiac Arrest Algorithm
• Recognizing ECG rhythms

Soft Copy of ALS Book and Algorithms

Online Examination 20 MCQ – allow multiple unlimited attempts; but only pass if ALL answers are correct. No answers given after each attempt; but the question answered wrongly will be informed to the student. 

WHEN PASSED PRE-REQUISUITE COMPONENT, they get FULL ACCESS to all online materials and videos; before joining course of their choice.

STANDARD 2-DAY COURSE

The standard 2-day course is meant for clinicians working in acute clinical areas. It provides all the components of the ALS course using scenarios which are pertinent and applicable for our students in their everyday clinical role. It guides students to learn to function in teams and to build such successful resuscitation teams in their hospital.
