This course is run over 3 consecutive days. However the mandatory 18 hours required by the HSE can also be delivered over a longer period of time should staff availability be a problem to your organisation.
Candidates must be physically able to achieve the learning objectives but reasonable adjustments can be discussed.
The HSE no longer require an independent assessment of Emergency First Aid at Work candidates. Throughout the course you will be continually monitored and assessed. Along with a multiple choice question paper on the final afternoon.
To keep your certificate valid a First Aid At Work Requalification course must be completed BEFORE your certificates expires, this will provide you with another three-year certificate. Once certificates have expired the first aider is no longer considered to be competent to act as a workplace first aider.
Each Candidate will receive an Easy to read First Aid reference book and a digital certificate.
* A FREE hardcopy can be provided if required.
