Frequently Asked Questions for PALS Renew Class
1. What is a PALS Renewal Class?
The PALS Renewal Class (Pediatric Advanced Life Support) is a refresher course designed for healthcare professionals who already hold a valid PALS certification and need to renew it before it expires. The class reviews and updates your skills in recognizing and managing pediatric emergencies, cardiac arrest, and respiratory distress, following the latest American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines.
2. How often do I need to renew my PALS certification?
According to the AHA, PALS certification is valid for two years. You must complete a PALS Renewal Class before your current card expires to maintain active certification and stay compliant with hospital and employer requirements.
3. What will I learn in the PALS Renewal course?
During the renewal class, you’ll review and practice:
- Pediatric assessment and recognition of life-threatening conditions
- Effective team dynamics during resuscitation
- Airway management, rescue breathing, and advanced interventions
- CPR and AED use for infants and children
- Rhythm recognition and pharmacology for pediatric patients
- Case-based scenarios to reinforce real-world application

If you don’t have the manual, you can purchase one through CPR Columbus before your class.
