Abstract Body: Introduction
Sudden cardiac death is a major global health concern, responsible for 15-20% of all deaths in developed countries. Timely cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and automated external defibrillator (AED) use significantly improves survival rates. Advances in health technology have expanded CPR/AED training options to meet global demand, offering in-person, online, and hybrid formats.

Methods
We conducted a global review of available CPR/AED training programs. Data were gathered from official health organizations, resuscitation councils, and nonprofits to map current training trends and regional adaptations, focusing on accessibility and scalability. Countries offering online training were analyzed for content, delivery methods, and skills assessments. Additionally, we identified collaborations with the American Heart Association (AHA) for standardized course delivery across different regions.

Results
Our review identified 36 organizations offering CPR/AED training. The British Heart Foundation was the only one providing a standalone video-based skills assessment focused solely on recognizing CPR rates. AHA offered the most comprehensive online skills assessment, utilizing video conferencing, feedback devices, and a web application. The European Resuscitation Council introduced an innovative augmented reality game for CPR training. Five organizations provided only in-person skills training, supported by online knowledge assessments.

Conclusion
Online and hybrid CPR/AED training modalities have increased accessibility, especially in developed countries. Expanding digital access to CPR/AED training and skills assessments globally could further enhance emergency response outcomes and improve survival rates worldwide.
