    Live: BLS/ALS/PALS Instructor Update Assignments
    The updated 2025 versions of BLS, ALS, PALS provider (base level) courses are now live. Every instructor is required to complete the Instructor Update course for their discipline before performing skills checks for students taking these 2025 courses. 

    NOTE: All current instructors/instructor trainers with HealthStream Learning Center (HLC) student accounts were assigned the applicable Update course in January. Instructors must complete the update course for their discipline by no later than August 31, 2026. Instructors who do not complete the update course by this date will no longer be able to perform student checkoffs regardless of the expiration date on their instructor certification.
     

    Live: Participant, Instructor, and Instructor Trainer Course Releases 
    We’re excited to announce the publication of the new American Red Cross Participant and Instructor courses across BLS, ALS, and PALS.  

    The courses have the same names for assignment but are reversioned with the new 2025 content and will automatically take the place of the old “legacy” courses in assignments going forward. All students already in progress in a legacy course have until August 31, 2026, to complete the course.

    Be sure to review the new courses and share their availability with your teams and learners. 
     

    Live: New Resuscitation Reporting Dashboard 
    We recently updated your reporting dashboard to a new platform that brings enhanced performance and improved stability! The layout and information you rely on remains familiar, but behind the scenes, we’re setting the foundation for several key enhancements to come later this year. NOTE: Your existing Resuscitation Dashboard will remain available as we all transition to this upgraded platform.
