What to Expect

Congratulations on completing FirstAidWeb’s ACLS Provider Certification Course! You’ve invested the time, effort, and commitment—now it’s time to secure your certification.

This exam isn’t meant to trick you. It’s designed to confirm your understanding of the material. Take a breath, get focused, and review the key details below before you begin.

Exam Overview

  • 65 questions covering all key ACLS topics, including multiple-choice and true/false. Questions are randomized for each attempt.
  • Exam must be completed within 90 minutes.
  • You must answer every question before submitting.
  • Detailed feedback is provided for every answer—correct or incorrect.
  • Passing score: 75%.
  • You have three consecutive attempts. After that, a review break will be required before trying again.

What to Keep in Mind

  • This is an individual exam—no notes, no outside help.
  • Plan for one sitting—you cannot save and return later.
  • Ensure a stable internet connection, a charged device, and a distraction-free environment.
  • You can review and change answers before submitting, but stay mindful—speed and accuracy matter in real-life situations.
  • Give your responses one final review, then submit with confidence.

What Happens Next

  • Results are displayed immediately upon submission.
  • Pass? You’ll receive your official ACLS Certification Card instantly.
  • Didn’t pass? No stress—you’ll have up to three consecutive attempts before a review break is enforced. After that, you can retake the exam.

You're ready—best of luck on your exam!
