About the Course
Our Full First Aid at Work course provides comprehensive training for individuals who need an in-depth understanding of first aid in higher-risk or regulated workplaces. Delivered over three days, this course goes beyond the basics and covers a wide range of injuries, medical emergencies, and workplace-specific scenarios.
Participants gain the confidence to assess situations, provide immediate care, and manage incidents until professional medical support arrives. The course includes practical demonstrations, hands-on practice, and scenario-based learning to ensure strong competency and preparedness.
This training is ideal for health and safety representatives, designated workplace first aiders, and organisations that require full certification to meet legal or industry standards.
Certification: A recognised certificate is issued upon successful completion of the course and is valid for a 3 year period (subject to assessment).
