I took the BLS class with Kahlil in Poway and I definitely recommend him. The class was small which made a huge difference. I received amazing feedback and had all of my questions answered. In a larger class, I definitely wouldn't have had that experience especially since I'm usually shy about asking questions. Yolanda was great as well. She scheduled me for a class quickly and even followed up afterward to make sure I received my certification card. Bonus that the class was only $49, compared to another agency I was looking at that charged $90. Overall an 11/10 experience!! read more

The staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and reliable. I appreciate that communication was so easy and efficient.

I love this place. I've renewed every two years here. I love it! They are so helpful. And I learn a lot. Love Cynthia and Yolanda. So flexible with crazy healthcare schedule. Love! read more

I would recommend this company for your BLS needs! Lots of availability of course offerings. The instructor is very knowledgeable and helpful. read more

I attended a BLS and ACLS class yesterday with Brad. My classmates and I are nursing students getting a head start on our certifications. I walked into the class only knowing/understanding the basics. However, Brad made this class enjoyable, understanding and engaging. I left feeling like I learned and understand a semester worth of knowledge. We all plan on returning for the rest of of certs. Thank you again!! read more

Life Support Academy - Brad and classmates! - CPR Classes Near Me - San Diego, California

Recently took the BLS & ACLS class on 8.29.21 The content is up-to-date! I had the instructor Mr. Brad. He is very clear communicator and knowledgeable. He is very supportive in coaching when practicing skills. I renewed my BLS throughout the years (at other locations) and did not learn as much compared to this experience. I feel a lot more confident knowing and applying this knowledge after this course. The instructor is very thorough. He applies real life examples from his own experience on and off the field. I would compare the knowledge and experience this man had to share to Mark Klimek. Definitely will be coming back to here to learn again. If you are concern about providing high quality CPR to an adult or infant, this class will definitely give you the confidence, training, and knowledge to do so. read more

I just completed my second ACLS recertification with Life Support Academy and I'm even more satisfied this time around. They are conveniently located and priced competitively. Last time it was super quick and I was able to get my card with no hassle. This time the class took a little longer, about 3.5 hours, but the instruction was actually really great thanks to Brad. I've done this class so many times but it was actually almost enjoyable this time. Brad broke everything down in a way I've never heard before, and he was engaging and easy to listen to. And very kind. I will definitely use them in two years when my recert is due again. read more

Excellent Teachers, patient and very knowledgeable, very relax environment for learning. Teachers are funny, keeps your learning with humor and hold your interest. Brad is excellent. I recommend their classes to anybody who wants not only to renew their certification but also great review and learning new things or update. read more

I took a combo class with Brad as our instructor & I had one of the best experiences I've had with this class! I've taken it 2 times with another company & although they were good, I felt like Brad really took the time I needed to explain some of the material. Thank you LSA & especially Brad! read more

I have been using the Academy for years. Their kind staff and central location combined with knowledgeable instructors and reasonable pricing make this my go to when I need to be re certified. As an added bonus, they provide coffee and tea and sometimes snacks. Gary Bigge, FNP-C read more

Not my first time going to life support Academy and of course it went beyond my expectations as a healthcare provider. Cynthia was an excellent instructor and provided solid information and real world experiences based on her many years in the field, which definitely enhanced my learning as well as helped me understand the material better I cannot wait to take more certification classes with Cynthia ... Excellent! read more

I've been an RN now for 20 years and this is THE FIRST time that I've wanted to stay over and learn more from the instructor in a BLS/ ACLS class. Brad truly was the most interesting, easy to-understand, and knowledgeable instructor I've been in class with. His knowledge of how it really is in the 'field' is priceless and so useful. I highly recommend taking classes with Life Support Academy! read more

I have been using Life Support Academy for my BLS certification. All their instructors are very knowledgeable, friendly, and affordable. 5 stars all the way. Thank you read more

Brad honestly really know his stuff. He made sure all the students kept track of what was important to review for the exam at the end of the class. The videos were tedious but necessary and the summaries at the end tied everything together well. I appreciate the water available for the students. My ACLS class was supposed to start at 10am but I arrived 30 minutes earlier than I had to because the email misled me and told me I had to be there at 9:30am. It wasn't a huge problem but I hope they get that sorted out. Other than that, the instructor was very knowledgeable and cares about his students' learning. I hope I can renew with him when I need to. read more

Highly recommend Life Support Academy. My instructor for my ACLS renewal class was very friendly, knowledgeable, and made the class enjoyable. The instructor taught the important things you need to know for the exam but also for real life. Other places talk about nonsense crap that drags the class even longer. Will be going back to Life Support Academy for future classes to keep my credentials. Already recommended them to coworkers. read more

This was the second time I attended life support academy. Annel Moreno has been my instructor on both occasions, she is nice, easy to understand and very clear. I will definitely attend the course with this company again. read more

Life support academy was an easy and fun way to get my ACLS certification. We signed up as group and they were able to accommodate all of us with a discount. We were all first timers so they made the information relevant to us as prehealth professionals. It was engaging as opposed to some where they just play a video for you. I definitely learned a lot and feel more prepared should emergency events occur. Definitely recommend! read more

I took the ACLS class and I have to say the class was short and sweet . Instructor made it enjoyable and it went much better than I anticipated . He also had a lot of good relatable stories / examples . read more

Came here for my ACLS renewal right before the stay-at-home order was in place. It was such a smooth class where not only important points where reviewed, but our instructor really took the time to know our medical backgrounds to cater to our specialties. Might I add, our class only ended up being 2 people--3 including our instructor! I would definitely recommend this business for ACLS renewals. read more

This place is great. I got my CPR certification here for nursing school and learned so much. The instructor was professional, knowledgeable, and made the learning experience fun. I got a lot of hand-on practice. If you're looking to get your CPR certification, you wouldn't be disappointed in this place! read more

Instructors are very knowledgeable and kept students entertained. Will continue to return for future courses.

Although my appointment was cancelled without notice due to someone's possible exposure to Covid, the company redeemed themselves by providing an excellent instructor and a discount to the class. I learned more in this class with hands on training than the many other CPR classes I've done. Thank you! Stay safe. read more

The best place I have ever renewed my AHA cards. I'll certainly use them again!

This was my first time coming here and I had an excellent experience. Brad was the instructor for my initial ACLS and renewal BLS. There is so much material to cover but he helped to point out the key information, so much so that I was able to pass on the first try only missing two questions! They're prices are also the best I've seen because the book is included. I'll definitely be back for all my renewals! read more

Best bls/acls renewal experience I've ever had. Mike D, the instructor, implemented creative and thought provoking ways in helping me understand and pass my bls/acls renewal. 90% of the time, we were up out of our seats interacting with other students, sharing knowledge, and using the professional and up-to-date equipment provided for us. Affordable, awesome friendly atmosphere, the instructor played some lofi chill-hop during the class which made the whole learning experience entertaining, within proximity to restaurants for break-time, easy access to the nearest freeway, elevator access, bathrooms were clean, and plenty of parking spaces. I highly recommend Life Support Academy!!! read more

Been renewing with them the last 3-4x already. They get to the point, go over what really matter for BLS/ACLS/NRP. This place never fails (literally) me. I highly recommends his place. read more
