Who is this course for ?
The First Aid at Work Requalification is a 2-day course designed for individuals who need to renew their First Aid at Work (FAW) certification.
To be eligible, you must hold a valid FAW certificate that has not expired for more than one month. If your certificate has been expired for up to three months, contact us to discuss your options, as certain exceptions may apply based on specific circumstances.
This course refreshes and updates the knowledge gained in the original FAW training, ensuring first aiders remain competent in handling emergencies like CPR, choking, and severe injuries. It follows the same guidelines under the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and meets the requirements of the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981, ensuring that first aiders continue to meet their workplace safety obligations.
It’s critical for anyone working in higher-risk environments such as construction, manufacturing, or larger workplaces to keep their skills up to date with this requalification course.
