The following Resus Council regulations apply to these courses only:
- ALS
- EPALS
- NLS
Candidate preparation
5.1 Candidates must bring photo identification along to the course/retests to verify their identity; this can include:
- passports
- identity cards
- a photo-ID driving licence
- a photo-ID work identification badge
5.2 Candidates are expected to have prepared for the course by reading the manual and accessing any associated e-learning modules.
5.3 Candidates have a professional responsibility to act with probity. For example, where candidates are given study leave to attend a course and/or have their costs paid by their employer/educational provider, employers and educational providers have a reasonable expectation that those candidates will prepare adequately for attendance at the face-to-face element of the course.
5.4 Candidates should not attend courses if they are going onto a night shift, finishing a night shift or between night shifts. Course/Medical Directors must use their discretion to decide if the candidate can remain on the course.
5.5 The pre-course MCQ paper should be completed before the start of the course. The resulting mark does not contribute to the final course result.
5.6 Centres must not refuse candidates’ attendance at the course on the basis that they have failed to complete the pre-course MCQ.
5.6.1 e-learning courses (only)
5.6.2 There is no set minimum or maximum time that candidates must spend on the e-learning material. Candidates should undertake the e-learning component at their own pace before attending the face-to-face day.
5.6.3 Course centres must not refuse candidates’ attendance at the course on the basis that they have failed to access all the e-learning modules.
While no one anticipates requiring a retest, please note that if an MCQ retest is needed this must be at an RC UK course centre and completed within three months of the course. This should be factored into any travel plans that you are making.
We recommended that you:
- undergo ACLS or ILS training prior to attending an ALS course.
- undergo PALS or PILS training prior to attending an EPALS course.

To complete a module, you need to access all available topics and attempt the ‘check your knowledge’ section (if available) so that the LMS records your progress for the module as ‘complete’.
