It is not recommended for employers to claim their employee cards but if the employer is paying for the student then they can speak to instructor about process to claim the card. If student does claim their card then an employer can visit the website, www.heart.org/cpr/mycards, and validate eCards through a code located on a student’s eCard.

*Note- all our A.H.A. E-Cards will be printed with our Training Center name: Pasco Hernando State College or Babcock Healthcare Education

Reason: Red White Blue CPR is a Training Site under a A.H.A. Authorized Training Center that tracks & sells all cards issued to training sites.

If you do not receive this email, please check your Spam or Junk folders prior to alerting your Training Center or Instructor. Please add the email address, eCards.heart.org, to your Address Book or Contacts in your email server.

2. The link within the email will direct you to the Student Profile web page, which will be prepopulated with your first name, last name, email address, eCard code, AHA Instructor name, and Training Center -Pasco-Hernando State College or Babcock Health Education Services- our parent facilities.

3. Once you have confirmed that your information is accurate, you will set up a security question and answer to access your eCard(s) in the future.

4. After setting up your security question and answer, accept the terms and conditions of the site and click “Submit.”

5. You will be directed to fill out a brief survey about the AHA course you just completed. Please note that if you do not claim your eCard, you will not be able to show proof of course completion to your employer. If your employer requires proof of completion, you can email them a copy from the eCard landing page. After you have accessed your eCard, you will receive an email from the AHA confirming that your eCard has been claimed. Save the confirmation email for your records. You can view your eCard online through the AHA’s website, www.heart.org/cpr/mycards, at any time. Simply enter your first and last name and email address. Your employer can verify your eCard at www.heart.org/cpr/mycards to confirm issuance by a valid Training Center and Instructor aligned with that Training Center. Employers are only able to verify your card if you have completed steps 1-5.

Printing: Your eCard can be viewed as a PDF and can be printed either wallet size (2.5” x 3.5”) to be cut out or full size (8.5” x 11”) for easy filing.

Most employers will not accept online-only certificates as validation. Employers require you actually perform the skills session in-classroom to prove you know the hands-on portion. Real life situations need real-life practice! The classroom session completed after the online portion meets the hands-on skills that employers require.

You will save time by completing the online portion of the course and you will have unlimited online attempts to complete the coursework before attending the skills session. It will take a few hours to complete so please plan in advance and do not count on completing it the day of class since unexpected issues can arise such as your internet going down, family emergency etc...You must also pass the hands-on skill session to get a certificate.
