Training Faculty (TF) Resources
Welcome to the Training Faculty (TF) page. If you are a NEW TF, please complete the TF Agreement form below and continually be aware of the following information:
TF Commitment:
Your status as TF is revokable at any time. It is a privilege and a duty to hold that status within our organization. You will be expected to monitor other instructors as necessary to maintain your status. These people may travel to your facility to be monitored, and it is expected that that is free of charge to the monitored instructor. If you need to travel to any other location, other than your recorded location of business, you may charge a reasonable fee to facilitate such monitoring, and the fees are in your own discretion, if it is initiated on the part of the instructor. Failure to facilitate such monitoring, or a refusal thereof, and/or to fail to complete the required Instructor Monitoring Form will result in the TF losing the TF status within our organization. Flexibility and cooperation is sought, so that people from many different areas of the country can be accommodated appropriately.
TF Commitment:
- Teach at least 4 provider courses in 2 years.
- Teach 1 instructor course in 2 years.
- Monitor instructors / instructor candidates / Course Directors in accordance with the guidelines of the AHA.
- Strengthen and support the Chain of Survival and the mission of the AHA in my community.
- Conduct myself in accordance with the ECC Leadership Code of Conduct.
- Avoid any perception of conflict of interest in accordance with the AHA Statement of Conflict of Interest.

TF Instructor Monitoring Form:
The American Heart Association strongly promotes knowledge and proficiency in all AHA courses and has developed instructional materials for this purpose. Use of these materials in an educational course does not represent course sponsorship by the AHA. Any fees charged for such a course, except for a portion of fees needed for AHA course materials, do not represent income to the AHA.
