Established in 2014, eMedCert offers online Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS), Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS), and Basic Life Support (BLS) certification and recertification courses, providing healthcare professionals with a convenient alternative to traditional classroom-based training. Through eMedCert's joint accreditation with the Postgraduate Institute for Medicine (PIM), CME continuing education credits are available with its courses.
"eMedCert has built a strong reputation among healthcare professionals who need trustworthy, accessible life support certification," said Tom Anderson, CEO of 360training. "This acquisition strengthens our healthcare training offering and reinforces our commitment to serving clinicians with training options that fit their busy schedules."
"We built eMedCert to make life support certification more accessible for busy healthcare professionals," said Wilson Rapp, Co-Founder of eMedCert. "Joining 360training gives us the opportunity to build on that mission and bring the eMedCert experience to more learners and organizations."
Having delivered more than 150,000 certifications to nearly 70,000 learners, eMedCert brings an established learner base to 360training's ecosystem, along with a course model focused on convenience, affordability, and clinical accuracy.
"Life support certification is a recurring need for healthcare professionals, and this acquisition allows us to support the full renewal cycle, from initial certification through recertification, within a single platform," said Samantha Montalbano, COO of 360training. "By combining eMedCert's established certification programs with 360training's learning technology and infrastructure, we can make it easier for both individual clinicians and employers to manage training requirements, track completions, and stay ahead of upcoming renewals."
By combining eMedCert's life support certification expertise with 360training's technology and infrastructure, the company can serve both individual healthcare professionals and enterprise employers with scalable training, centralized compliance reporting, and enterprise administrative tools.
"Healthcare professionals need certification training they can trust and complete on their own schedule, whether they're independent clinicians or part of a large hospital system," said Ryan Linders, CMO of 360training. "eMedCert has already earned that trust with its learners. By bringing the brand into 360training, we're able to offer an even more seamless certification and recertification experience for clinicians and healthcare-adjacent professionals who rely on it."
The acquisition further expands 360training's healthcare-focused learner base and strengthens its presence across the healthcare, EHS, and compliance training markets it serves nationwide.
