October 10, 2023 BLS Retrain (8:00am - 8:30am)

The RQI system features the same e-learning software you have previously worked on combining it with the latest CPR training technology. The RQI manikin will guide you through your CPR practice and testing, providing real time coaching and feedback. Upon successful completion of your skills test, the system will automatically generate your certification.

To take the skills test you must complete the e-learning modules. When you arrive to the skills test you will login to the manikin with your RQI specific login, please take note of it when you register for the e-module.

Learners have 60 days from the time they open their online materials to complete the in-person skills session.  After 60-days they will need to re-register and pay for a new course.

During the skills test you will be expected to perform compressions, ventilations, single provider and two provider CPR (with a virtual partner). Rate, depth, and ratio of compressions to ventilations are critiqued by the manikin - listen to the manikin and you will be successful.
