AHA Heartsaver First Aid certification is valid for two years, through the end of the Renew By month shown on the card. We recommend scheduling your renewal before your current certification expires to maintain continuous compliance with workplace or organizational requirements. ### Do you offer group rates for businesses and organizations?

Its general industry first aid standard (29 CFR 1910.151(b)) requires adequately trained first aid personnel when there is no infirmary, clinic, or hospital in near proximity to the workplace. The AHA designs its Heartsaver First Aid courses for workplace responders, and your employer decides which training meets its obligations. ### What areas do you serve for on-site first aid training?
