At PulseStart in Miami, PALS (Pediatric Advanced Life Support) follows the American Heart Association HeartCode blended path: you complete the AHA online course, then pass an in-person skills session. Verified prices: AHA HeartCode online $173 (paid separately to AHA) + PulseStart skills $110. When you pass skills, you receive your AHA PALS eCard the same day. The card is valid 2 years.

What you pay (online vs skills)
Do not treat $110 as the full PALS price. The PulseStart skills fee is $110. The AHA online module is $173 and is purchased separately. Homepage listings that show $110 for PALS refer to the skills session price, consistent with the HeartCode skills page.
BLS is different: PulseStart’s all-in-person BLS is $100 with no separate online fee for that path — BLS certification Miami.
How long PALS takes at PulseStart
- Online (HeartCode): Complete on your own schedule before skills. Exact online hours are set by AHA’s HeartCode product — confirm on the AHA store when you purchase.
- Skills: Book after you email completion to Sales@pulsestartnow.com. Duration statements on the site differ by page: the ACLS skills description cites about 2 hours; HeartCode-oriented FAQ copy elsewhere says skills are often 30–45 minutes per student. For PALS, use the PALS course page, the HeartCode hub, and the schedule.
- Card: Issued the same day you pass skills.
Same-day meaning: same-day AHA eCard Miami.
HeartCode path step by step
- Confirm your employer or school requires PALS (not only BLS or ACLS).
- Purchase and complete AHA HeartCode PALS online ($173 separate).
- Email completion proof to Sales@pulsestartnow.com.
- Enroll in a PulseStart PALS skills session ($110) via schedule or phone.
- Pass skills → receive your AHA PALS eCard the same day.
Who the PALS page lists (and who decides)
PulseStart’s PALS page lists nurses, EMTs, paramedics, dental & medical staff, and healthcare students among audiences. That is a description of who commonly takes the course — not a rule that every person in those roles must hold PALS. Your employer or school decides. If you are choosing between ACLS and PALS, see ACLS vs PALS.

Frequently asked questions
How much does PALS cost in Miami at PulseStart?
$173 for AHA HeartCode online (separate) + $110 for the PulseStart skills session. Total out-of-pocket is those two amounts unless your employer pays one of them.
How long does PALS take?
Online time is on your schedule via HeartCode. Skills are booked after online completion; see the course page and schedule for session length. Site pages cite both ~2 hours (ACLS skills wording) and often 30–45 minutes per student (HeartCode FAQ wording) — confirm for your booked session.
Is there a classroom-only PALS without HeartCode at PulseStart?
The verified PulseStart path described for PALS on the live course and HeartCode pages is the HeartCode online + skills pattern. Ask when you call if another format is available for your dates — do not assume from this FAQ alone.
Do I get my PALS card the same day?
Yes — when you pass the in-person skills session. Online completion alone does not issue the card.
Is the $110 on the homepage the full price?
No. $110 is the skills session. Online is $173 separate.
Who needs PALS?
Whoever your employer or school requires. The site lists common clinical audiences; it does not invent mandatory role rules.
How does PALS compare to ACLS on price and format?
Same verified HeartCode economics at PulseStart: $173 online + $110 skills, same-day eCard when you pass, valid 2 years. Content focus differs (pediatric vs adult). See ACLS vs PALS.
Where do I enroll?
Email online completion to Sales@pulsestartnow.com, then book on the schedule or call (786) 292-8277.
