Karen’s Online Teachable course is not required in any other NRP course.
NEED YOUR AAP/NRP PROVIDER CARD?
YOU WILL NEED TO:
Choose Essentials or Advanced. Please consider the following while choosing:
If you are a CPM or CNM or work in a CABC birth center, you are required to take Advanced.
If you are not a CPM or CNM needing NRP for licensure and just want the skills and knowledge behind neonatal resuscitation, you can take Essentials. BUT to be clear, you will not end up with chest compressions listed on your NRP card.
While we do not know the type of license you have, you are most likely taking this NRP class to prove that a licensing body (AAP/NRP) has trained you in NRP.
Chest compressions are taught in my Online Teachable Integrative Resuscitation of the Newborn course as well as in the Live Skills session, but it will NOT be listed on your Essentials NRP card. Only taking Advanced covers you for having learned the chest compressions portion of NRP. If you require chest compressions on your NRP card, then you MUST take Advanced!If you are working unlicensed, you should STILL take the Advanced course as this gives you the NRP card that covers chest compressions.
If you are a student or assistant who is working with a midwife, you should still take the Advanced course.
Most of the advanced skills taught in the Advanced course will not be used in the out of hospital setting but if you are at a birth as a skilled attendant (Midwifery assistant, student, helper, extra set of hands, etc.), regardless of your title or role, you need to have taken the Advanced course, so your NRP card states you have been trained in chest compressions.
Anyone that attends births should take the Advanced course!It is my understanding that

The Teachable course is required before attending her live skill-testing session. Spend some time with Karen on Teachable and ‘take the charge off’ of learning resuscitation. All parts of the video lecture need to be watched, video clips and handouts printed, and then… Drink some tea, take a few breaths, and practice…practice… practice…

Once we've met our minimum registration numbers, we'll send out an email to confirm the class. If numbers aren’t met, you’ll be notified via email, and Live, Skill-Testing registration fees will be refunded. No refunds will be given for the Teachable course.
3. ONCE CONFIRMED, COMPLETE THESE THREE AAP/NRP REQUIREMENTS:
4A. PURCHASE AND READ THE TEXTBOOK OF NEONATAL RESUSCITATION, 8TH EDITION

5. PRACTICE YOUR SKILLS AT HOME
REQUIRED. Practice at home before attending the Live Skill-Testing Session. The Live Skill-Testing is just a check off of your skills and not a time to practice. Therefore, please allow time to practice with Karen on Teachable before attending Live Skill-Testing.
6. ATTEND LIVE SKILL-TESTING SESSION, PROVIDE FEEDBACK, AND DOWNLOAD THE NRP CARD
After Live, Skill-Testing, you’ll receive an email confirmation that you’ve passed. Then, log into the NRP Learning Platform and provide feedback within the course survey.
After submitting the course survey, you'll be able to access your NRP eCard on the platform. Download your card immediately to ensure you have a copy of it without any errors.
Need CEUs? 6.5 CEUs (MEAC) are available as part of your purchase of the Integrative Resuscitation of the Newborn course on Teachable. To qualify for CEUs, you must watch the purchased lectures, take the quiz on Teachable, and complete the evaluation.
CEUs for Licensure: If you’re collecting CEUs for licensure, the AAP/NRP Part 1 CE Certificate is what you’ll need. Keep a copy for your records. NARM does not accept CEUs for any AAP/NRP course because it is a required course.
