Step 1: AHA Online Courses
From the list of classes below, follow the link that most appropriately matches the requirements needed for your CPR/AED and/or First Aid certification. Each link will take you directly to the AHA website where you will purchase and complete the online portion of the course. The online course allows you to work at your own pace and to become comfortable with the information. All fees associated with the online course are paid directly to the AHA and the Mooresville Fire Department does not receive any compensation from the AHA for these course. If you have any questions about which class you should purchase, please contact us prior to purchasing any course materials.
This class covers adult, child, and infant CPR, along with the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED) and choking rescue for all ages. Please note that the child and infant modules are listed as optional sections within the course, so if you have a requirement for child and/or infant CPR certification, please complete these modules prior to claiming your certificate of completion of the online course.
This class is for the layperson (not a health care provider) that covers adult, child, and infant CPR, use of an automated external defibrillator (AED), chocking rescue for all ages, as well as First Aid. Please note that the child and infant modules are listed as optional sections within the course, so if you have a requirement for child and/or infant CPR certification, please complete these modules prior to claiming your certificate of completion of the online course.
This class only covers first aid topics. If you need CPR and AED, you will need to take the Heartsaver First Aid CPR AED course.
Heartsaver Pediatric First Aid CPR AED
This class is for the layperson, not a health care provider. This class only teaches children and infant CPR, AED, and first aid. It does not include Adult CPR, AED, or first aid.
Heartcode BLS
This class is for health care providers, including nurses, EMTs, CNAs, and Doctors. This two-year certification meets most requirements for the profession.
Step 2: In-Person Practice / Skills Testing
Contact mfdcpr@mooresville.in.gov to schedule in-person practice/skills testing with three different dates and what skills testing you need.
Students who have completed the online course portion will be able to print a certificate needed for STEP TWO which is an in-person skills test with an AHA Certified Instructor. You must bring a printed copy of your online completion certificate to the appointment as the skills session is unable to be conducted and a card cannot be issued without this certificate. Certificates from the online course should be dated less than 60 days from the date of the in-person skills practice and testing appointment.
Each session must be scheduled, is 30 minutes long, includes an initial Q&A/practice session, and concludes with a demonstration of the skills learned. Testing is held at the Mooresville Fire Department, 415 E. State Road 144, Mooresville, IN 46158.
The American Heart Association (AHA) strongly promotes knowledge and proficiency in all AHA courses and has developed instructional materials for this purpose. Use of these materials in an educational course does not represent course sponsorship by the AHA. Any fees charged for such a course, except for a portion of fee needed for AHA course materials, do not represent income to the AHA.
