Your CPRToday! account

CPRToday! is an online CPR, BLS, First Aid and advanced life support training service. Registration is free for life, training and exams cost nothing, and you pay only when you pass and want the certificate. This page explains what you can do without an account, what an account adds, and exactly what happens when you sign in with Google.

What CPRToday! does

CPRToday! Inc. has trained and certified people online since 1999. You pick a course, work through the material at your own pace on any device, and take the final exam when you are ready — as many times as you need, at no cost. When you pass, you can buy a 2-year certificate and wallet card and download them immediately. Our certifications follow current AHA guidelines and are accepted in all 50 states.

There is no appointment, no classroom and no subscription. The only thing an account does is hold your courses, your exam results and the certificates issued in your name.

What you can do without an account

Most of CPRToday! is open to anyone. You do not need to register, and you do not need to sign in, to do any of this:

  • Browse every course

    Read what each CPR, BLS, First Aid, ACLS, PALS and NRS course covers, who it is for and what it costs.

  • Preview a certificate

    See exactly what the wall certificate and wallet card look like before you train.

  • Verify a certificate

    Employers and licensing bodies can confirm any CPRToday! certificate without signing in.

  • Read the FAQ

    Acceptance, renewals, pricing, exams and refunds, answered in plain language.

  • Contact our team

    US-based support, 7 days a week. No account needed to reach us.

The Personal Certification Hub you see after signing in.

Three ways to sign in

When you register or sign in, you can choose any of the following. All three create the same kind of account, and you can always reach support if you lose access to one.

  • Sign-in option

    Email and password

    Register with your name, email address and a password you choose. Always available, and never requires a third-party account.

  • Sign-in option

    Continue with Google

    Use your existing Google Account instead of creating another password. Covered in detail below.

  • Sign-in option

    Continue with LinkedIn

    Use your LinkedIn account. We receive your name and email address to create your account, nothing more.

Signing in with Google

“Continue with Google” lets you use your existing Google Account rather than creating another password. It is entirely optional — the email-and-password option is always there, and nothing on CPRToday! requires a Google Account.

What we ask Google for

We request three non-sensitive scopes, and only these three:

  • openid A unique identifier for your Google Account, so we recognize you next time.
  • email Your email address, which becomes the email address on your account.
  • profile Your basic profile: your name, and your profile picture.

What we do with it

One thing: create your CPRToday! account and sign you in to it. Your name becomes the name on your account and on any certificate issued to you, and your email address is where receipts, exam results and expiration reminders are sent. That is the whole of it.

What we cannot do. We do not ask for access to Gmail, Drive, Contacts, Calendar, Photos or any other Google service, and we have no ability to read, change or delete anything in your Google Account. Information received through Google Sign-In is never used for advertising or ad targeting, and it is never sold.
Changing your mind. You can disconnect CPRToday! from your Google Account at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions. That stops future Google sign-ins. It does not delete your CPRToday! account, your course history or a certificate already issued — to delete those, email support@cprtoday.com.

CPRToday!’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements. Section 3 of our Privacy Policy sets this out in full.
