Additionally, this course will include any protocol changes that may have arisen since their last training course.

This course will give the learners a qualification to the highest level of First Aid, meeting the statutory requirements of the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981.

Numbers:
A maximum of 12 learners are allowed, they must be a minimum of 14 years of age and a certificate can be offered to all, subject to assessment.

A learner cannot assume a responsibility in the workplace until they reach the age of 16, and then it is the employer’s responsibility to ensure that the student is suitable for that role.

The certificate will expire as dated on the certificate, irrespective of age.
