Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

❓ What is the difference between Emergency First Aid at Work and First Aid at Work?

Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) is a 1-day course covering essential life-saving skills for low-risk environments.
First Aid at Work (FAW) is a 3-day course (or 2-day blended option) that includes everything in the EFAW plus in-depth training on a wider range of medical conditions and injuries — suitable for higher-risk workplaces.

❓ Are these first aid courses HSE compliant?

Yes, both the Emergency First Aid at Work and First Aid at Work courses are fully HSE compliant and regulated by Qualsafe Awards, meeting the standards required for UK workplaces.

❓ Can I complete the First Aid at Work course online?

We offer a blended learning option where you complete the theory online at your own pace (around 6 hours), followed by 2 days in the classroom for practical, hands-on training. This reduces classroom time while still meeting HSE and regulatory requirements.

❓ Do I need first aid training for my business?

Under UK law, employers must provide appropriate first aid training based on a first aid needs assessment. Most businesses will need at least one trained first aider.

  • Low-risk environments (e.g. offices) often need the 1-day EFAW

  • Higher-risk settings (e.g. warehouses, construction) typically require the 3-day FAW

❓ How long are first aid certificates valid for?

Certificates are valid for 3 years. We recommend refreshing your CPR skills annually. We also offer First Aid at Work Requalification courses if you’re nearing expiry.

❓ What is the Catastrophic Haemorrhage add-on?

When you book our First Aid at Work course, you’ll receive a FREE Catastrophic Haemorrhage training module, covering the use of tourniquets and haemostatic dressings – essential for high-risk workplaces, security teams, or remote environments.

❓ Who delivers the training?

All of our courses are delivered by experienced frontline emergency professionals, including paramedics and advanced first responders. We use SIMBODIES™ and Laerdal™ manikins for scenario-based training.

❓ Can you deliver training at our workplace?

Yes! We offer on-site training for businesses, saving your team travel time and making the learning experience more relevant to your specific environment. Contact us for a tailored quote.
