To complete your BLS certification monitoring, you must teach a full BLS Provider course under the supervision of an HSF-certified BLS Experienced Instructor (EI) Monitor.

 

Heart and Stroke Foundation Requirements:

• You have six months to complete your monitoring after you have passed the BLS Instructor in-class learning portion of your certification.

• A minimum of 3 students are required, and a maximum of 6 students are allowed for monitoring.

​

Instructor Monitoring Responsibilities:

• Arrange a BLS provider course, and serve as your BLS instructor monitor, evaluating your performance.

• Create a BLS course in the Heart & Stroke portal to ensure compliance

• Provide an unbiased monitoring and feedback to the instructor using the Heart & Stroke provided monitoring form

​

Instructor Candidate Responsibilities:​

• Instructor Candidate registration fees must be paid before course creation.

• Provide a minimum of 3 students to ensure HSF requirements are met ($30/student)

• Provide 72 hours notice for class re-scheduling (if necessary)

• Arrive for the course 30-45 minutes prior to course start for set-up

 

Notes:

• Should the Instructor Candidate need to reschedule the class, a $50 rescheduling fee will apply

​

BLS Instructor Re-Evaluation:

• If the candidate is unsuccessful in their BLS Instructor evaluation, there are no refunds.

• A re-evaluation can be scheduled for a fee of $100

​

My goal is to provide detailed feedback to ensure you meet HSF certification standards, have a positive and successful experience, and excel as a BLS instructor.
