First Aid Courses
Our First Aid Training Courses
Our accredited in-person courses are designed to give learners the confidence and skills to save lives in emergency situations.
The Health & Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 requires all workplaces to provide adequate first aid provision – this includes staff trained in first aid. The number of trained staff and the level of training should be determined via a ‘first aid needs assessment’.
