The APLS course has three important components that work together to support your learning:
You’ll receive a digital copy of the 7th edition Advanced Paediatric Life Support manual: A Practical Approach to Emergencies. A redemption code will be emailed to you approximately six weeks before your face-to-face course.
Approximately 6–8 hours of interactive online modules that focus on key knowledge and clinical priorities, preparing you for the in-person program. There is an expectation that you will have completed all of the online learning modules before attending the face-to-face program.
An immersive program where you’ll put your knowledge into practice through skill stations, workshops, and simulated clinical scenarios.
The eight scenario-based modules in the pre-course online learning are designed to enhance your understanding of clinical priorities for managing critically ill and injured children.
Each module has interactive exercises, in-depth tutorials and tips from APLS faculty members and smart quizzes for you to monitor your own learning.
You can expect the online learning to take approximately 6–8 hours. Your progress will be monitored by APLS and shared with the Course Director. Completing the pre-course online learning is an important step in preparing for the face-to-face elements of the course, and full completion is required for successful completion of the APLS course.
As soon as your place on the course is secured with payment you will be granted online learning access, available via My APLS, and access will still be available until one month following the face to face program. If you don't receive your login, please contact APLS.
