HOW CERTIFICATION WORKS
The process is simple. It combines online education with in-person simulations to achieve Rescuer Certification. Once certified, if you’d like to
share your knowledge, we’d love to have you join us as an instructor through our Instructor Certification. Recertification is required every two years
to ensure your skills are up to date.

“No more chaos, just CPR.
Before RECOVER, codes could feel like chaos. With RECOVER, CPR has become systematic and predictable by taking the guesswork out of the equation and gives the entire (trained) team clearly defined roles and evidence-based steps to take. No more chaos, just CPR.”

“A whole team effort
One of the biggest changes I have seen is that RECOVER training has allowed us to utilize all staff members. Assistants are taught to initiate CPR and participate in the code.”
–Valerie Garuccio CVT, VTS (ECC)Compassion-First Pet Hospitals
“The current best evidence
RECOVER helped identify knowledge gaps and future research needs, influencing both clinical researchers as well as laboratory animal researchers. Getting certified means researchers involved in resuscitation research can ensure their study protocols follow the current best evidence, which is typically required for IACUC approval.”
