CPR—Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation—is a lifesaving skill that can make the difference in an emergency. Whether you’re a healthcare worker, teacher, coach, parent, or Good Samaritan, keeping your CPR certification current ensures you’re ready to act when it counts. Northern Nevada CPR offers convenient AHA-certified CPR renewal courses in Reno to help you stay prepared and confident.


How Long Does CPR Certification Last?

Most CPR certifications are valid for two years from the date of completion. This applies to courses from leading organizations such as:

  • American Heart Association (AHA)

  • American Red Cross

  • National Safety Council

  • Health & Safety Institute (HSI)


After completing your course, you’ll receive a card or digital certificate with your expiration date—making it easy to track when renewal is needed.


Why Renew Your CPR Certification?

Even if you remember the basics, CPR guidelines evolve over time. Staying current ensures you:

  • Learn the latest techniques, including compression depth and hands-only CPR

  • Remain confident and effective in emergencies

  • Meet workplace and legal requirements

  • Maintain professional credentials in healthcare, education, or public safety


How to Renew Your CPR Certification with Northern Nevada CPR

Renewing your CPR certification is straightforward:

  1. Choose an approved provider—Northern Nevada CPR offers AHA-certified renewal courses in Reno.

  2. Enroll in a renewal course—often shorter than your original training.

  3. Complete the course and pass the test to receive your updated certification.


We offer flexible options, including blended learning with online instruction and in-person skills practice, so renewing your CPR certification is fast and convenient.


Don’t Wait Until It Expires

While some organizations offer a grace period, expired certifications may require you to retake the full course instead of a shorter renewal. Plan to renew at least one month before expiration to stay ready and avoid delays.


Conclusion

Your CPR skills can save lives—but only if you’re current and confident in your training. Northern Nevada CPR makes it easy to renew your CPR certification in Reno, ensuring you’re always prepared to act in an emergency. Don’t wait—stay certified and be ready to save a life.
