Developed by IBHRE, an independent certification board and global leader in heart rhythm management credentialing, the Cardiac Device Education and Self-Assessment (CDESA) Course includes 18 information-packed modules, case studies, and a post assessment based on IBHRE’s Certified Cardiac Device Specialist (CCDS) Exam Blueprint found in the Certification Candidate Handbook.

Although this online course is based upon the CCDS Exam Blueprint, it is not all inclusive of the knowledge areas and skills assessed for certification. Consequently, completing this course is not required for IBHRE certification, and doing so does not guarantee successful completion of the CCDS exam.
