Emergency First Aid At Work

Level 3 Award

1 Day Course

It’s vital for every workplace to have trained First Aiders in place in case an emergency situation arises. This Level 3 course makes sure you’re meeting the latest statutory requirements.

The course covers a wide range of first aid emergencies, making sure that your team can deal with them confidently, quickly and effectively. It will also include any protocol changes that might have arisen since their last training course.

Duration

A minimum of six contact hours in the classroom, consisting of practical and theoretical activities, plus some pre-course activity could be required.

Ideally, the course should be run over one day, but can be spread over a longer time period – providing it’s completed within 4 weeks of starting the course, and the training sessions last for a minimum of two hours.

Numbers

Minimum participants: 4

Maximum participants: 12

Participants must be at least 14 years of age.
