CORD position statement on Advanced Life Support Course certification for EM residents
There has been a proliferation of Advanced Life Support Courses and certification, with over 8 such courses with content applicable to EM. The course contents are routinely taught to EM residents as a portion of their core curriculum in EM. For this reason, CORD does not support mandated attendance or certification as a prerequisite for participation in selected clinical residency requirements or rotations. The appropriate preparation for such curriculum elements is best determined on a local level by the EM residency director.
