Therefore, the development of training in this field, aiming the spread of standardization of BLS, is especially important to achieve quality in CPR. This study aimed to describe the experience of Master's students of the Graduate Program in Nursing and Health of a Public University of the State of Bahia to develop a BLS workshop, which was administrated to health students. The workshop proposal on BLS was to promote a theoretical-practical approach based on reality. In this sense, a dialogued lecture was held, using audiovisual resources, containing the following theoretical contents: Epidemiology of diseases of the circulatory system; Symptomatology of an individual in PCR; Steps for recognizing a PCR situation; Evaluation sequence and conduct at each moment; Use of External Automated Defibrillator (AED) and Heimlich Maneuver in adults. It is of fundamental importance that the whole society has knowledge about the Basic Life Support protocols, since anyone can deal with an urgent or emergency situations, thus previous experience can be effective to help the victim.
