Adult CPR & AED FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What to know before scheduling Adult CPR and AED certification for yourself or your team.
How long does an Adult CPR and AED course take?
Course length varies by certifying organization, format, class size, included age groups, skills practice and whether First Aid is added. CPR 2 YOU confirms the expected duration before the course is scheduled.
How long is Adult CPR and AED certification valid?
Most nationally recognized CPR and AED course-completion cards are valid for two years. Your card will show its issue and expiration dates.
