Loved CPR VAM! Straightforward process that was an awesome option for a busy parent to renew BLS certification. The instructions into the office were easy to follow, expectations for the skills test were clear, equipment was clean, and they even give you a pocket mask upon completion. Will definitely use them again in the future!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the wonderful review, Rachel. We’re glad our straightforward process and clear instructions made renewing your BLS certification easy as a busy parent.

The training was smooth and concise! I loved being able to practice on the dummys to simulate the experience better. I feel a lot more prepared going into the hospital now
Response from the owner:Thank you, Preston — we’re thrilled the training felt smooth and that practicing on the dummies helped build your confidence. It’s great to hear you feel more prepared for the hospital. Best of luck in your clinicals, and we’re here if you need any further support.
One of the coolest CPR certification experiences I've had! The entire process was incredibly easy, reliable, and efficient from start to finish. I loved being able to complete the online portion at my own pace and then quickly finish the skills check without any hassle. After dealing with another CPR company that kept canceling and rescheduling my class, CPR VAM was honestly a lifesaver (literally 😂). They made the entire process stress-free, and I was able to get certified quickly when I needed it most. I highly recommend CPR VAM to anyone looking for a smooth, convenient, and professional CPR certification experience. Thank you for making what could have been a stressful situation so easy! Will for sure be coming back!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Annie. We're thrilled CPR VAM provided a smooth, stress-free experience when you needed certification quickly. We're glad the online/on-site format worked well and that we could be a reliable alternative after your previous cancellations. Your recommendation means a lot to our team, and we look forward to helping you again for recertification.
