An AED trainer (practice AED) is intended for training and can never deliver a real electric shock. This allows trainees to practice resuscitation and the use of an AED realistically and safely.

An AED trainer simulates a life-like resuscitation situation, including voice prompts. This allows trainees to practice turning on the AED and correctly applying the electrode pads, among other things. Sometimes it is also possible to press the shock button. However, a practice AED or training AED can never deliver a shock, as the electrode pads are not connected to a power source.

An AED trainer looks almost the same as a real, deployable AED. However, there is one major visual difference to prevent confusion in an emergency: many AED trainers have a different color (e.g., red or orange) compared to a real AED.

An AED trainer offers participants the opportunity to safely practice CPR with the use of an AED. This allows them to act confidently in life-saving situations during a real emergency.
