WHAT DO I NEED?

PRE-REQUISITES

This course is for people wishing to renew an existing, valid First Aid at Work certificate. The requalification course is designed for people whose certificate is still in date therefore it is intensive in nature with very little practice time. This course is a refresher course therefore it is your responsibility to ensure you have previously attended and passed a full three day first aid at work certificate; on successful completion of this course any certificate issued without this prior training will be invalid. The minimum entry requirement is a good understanding of spoken and written English. If you have concerns in this area, please call us on 01275 398 665. The minimum age of attendance for this course is 16 years old, however delegates who are under the age of 18 must bring a completed parental consent form to the first day of the training course. A student 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.
