WHO NEEDS A STUDENT MANUAL?

The American Heart Association (AHA) requires that each participant has access to class learning content in order to take the class, and in order to be certified!

This means Participants who have registered for:

AHA Quick Renew or
AHA Traditional Classroom Experience

need to provide proof of ownership of the most current version of student manual.

YOU MAY NOT NEED TO PURCHASE A STUDENT MANUAL!

If your training is AHA Hybrid and you completed online learning, AHA does not require you to purchase a student manual. The online learning system provides digital access to all learning content for 2 years.
If your training is Red Cross or ASHI, you don’t need to purchase an AHA student manual. This is only required for AHA Quick Renew or AHA Traditional Classroom training

REQUIREMENTS

Proof of student manual ownership must be submitted by 30 minutes before your scheduled class.
Each book must be the most recent version, in order to qualify.

The student manual may be either an e-book or a physical/printed/hard-copy book.
You don't need to bring a student manual to class. You just demonstrate that you own one.

EXPEDITED CERTIFICATES CANNOT BE GRANTED WHEN REQUIRED ITEMS ARE SUBMITTED LATE. Your Purple team/instructor will check the system for submission up to 30 minutes before your scheduled class. Anything submitted after that will need to go through a separate process.

If you don't submit proof beforehand, don't worry! Unlike many training centers, we won't make you leave the class. 😊 Instead, this is what will happen:

We'll Allow you to attend the in-person class
Then, move your file to a late submissions file
Wait for you to inform us when you have submitted your proof.
Process your certification after you have informed us (via text or email). The AHA system will then email your certification.

We are happy to offer this service for you! This additional service requires some extra admin work for Purple's team, and we gotta pay the humans! A $25 fee will be applied via email invoice to cover the extra time spent managing your file.

You'll receive your certification by midnight of the 2nd day after you have informed us of your submission AND paid the admin fee.

EXPEDITED CERTIFICATES CANNOT BE GRANTED WHEN REQUIRED ITEMS ARE SUBMITTED LATE. Your Purple team/instructor will check the system for submission up to 30 minutes before your scheduled class. Anything submitted after that will need to go through a separate process.
