If you do not agree to these Terms you may not use our website or our services.

This website is operated by Professional Medical Certifications. In these Terms of Service, the terms “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Professional Medical Certifications and the terms “you” and “your” refer to you, the user of this website and the services we offer.

We reserve the right to update, change or replace any part of these Terms of Service by posting updates or changes to our website. It is your responsibility to check this page periodically for changes. Your continued use of the website or our services following the posting of any changes constitutes acceptance of those changes.

By accessing our site or using our services you do not acquire any ownership rights in any materials offered on our website. You are, however, authorized to use our services, subject to your compliance with these Terms.

We own the copyright in content of our website and all other intellectual property rights associated with our website and our services; except only that content owned by our third party suppliers, which we are authorized to use.

You may take the courses provided on our website and obtain the certifications offered only for your personal use and for the purpose of learning and reviewing the content provided and for the purpose of obtaining the certifications offered, in accordance with prescribed instructional and certification courses.

You may access the course content provided on our website in accordance with these terms and our policies. You must pay the fees associated with our services in order to access and use our certification courses.

You may access and use our services only for their intended purpose. Specifically, you may use our services to take the courses provided and obtain the certifications we offer, assuming you meet the required qualifications. You may not copy or duplicate our content for any purpose other than obtaining a certification for yourself. You may not use the content or services for any commercial purposes, or any purpose other than to obtain the offered certifications, without our separate express written permission.

We further reserve the right to change any courses offered at any time. We further reserve the right to change, modify, revise or update the content of any course at any time.

Our ACLS, BLS, PALS, NRP, and CPR certification and recertification courses are nationally accepted and based on the latest published cognitive guidelines, as endorsed by the American Heart Association's International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR). We are also compliant with the current Joint Commission (JCAHO) standards.

ProMed offers the ability to purchase For Life products for ACLS, BLS, PALS, NRP, and CPR. When you purchase a For Life product, you are purchasing that course and exam in perpetuity. You will be asked after you purchase a For Life product whether you would like to begin with a Certification or Recertification. 20 months after your new provider card is issued, you will be able to click a button on your dashboard to populate a new Recertification. This will occur each time you pass your exam. Your course and exam cannot be taken sooner than 20 months after your last issue date.

Our certifications are issued by Professional Medical Certifications, not the AHA (American Heart Association). The cards you receive from us will not include the AHA logo. We are our own provider, much like Red Cross or ASHI. The AHA does not approve or certify any providers operating completely online. Despite not having the AHA logo, we have helped thousands successfully certify online all across the country because our courses adhere to the latest guidelines as well as the same evidence-based training required by the JCAHO standards, which are the standards that the AHA builds their training on.

Our Continuing Medical Education credits are Category 2 credits, which are self documented credits.

ProMed Flex Expire™

Flex Expire™ is a voluntary feature that allows you to set the issue date for your new provider card once you pass an exam. The date must be within 30 days after passing your exam. Once a date is selected, you will not be able to change that issue date.

If you elect to change your issue date, ProMed Certifications is not responsible for any lapse in compliance that may occur. For this reason, you’ll want to ensure your current certification covers you until your ProMed Certifications card is issued on the date you’ve requested it to be issued. If you do not confirm your issue date within 24 hours of passing your exam (by confirming a change of date or by confirming the default current day), we will automatically set your issue date to the date you passed the exam.

Automatic Renewal

If you do not timely opt-out of auto-renewal, your subscription will be renewed, without any additional action by you, and you authorize us to charge your payment method for the Renewal Fee.
