When is BLS offered?
Students receive BLS training twice during their undergraduate medical education. This half day class takes place during Orientation Week of their M1 year and during ICC at the beginning of their M3 year. M1 students will receive a BLS book on the first day of orientation and should read this prior to their BLS class.

What if I need BLS verification?
If you are a current Feinberg School of Medicine student and need written verification that you have completed Basic Life Support training (BLS), please contact Berna Jacobson in the Augusta Webster Office of Medical Education (312) 503-0233 or b-jacobson2@northwestern.edu.

What if I miss the BLS training sessions?
It is the student's responsibility to seek out another BLS learning session. To search for options offered by the American Heart Association, click here.
