This statement highlights the importance of spaced learning and use of innovative educational strategies during resuscitation training. Shorter, more frequent training sessions have been proven to be more effective in retaining knowledge. Incorporating digital platforms and applying gamified learning can improve engagement and knowledge retention for students who have completed their AHA training.
