(Also available as a combined face to face / online blended course)
Our 3 day First Aid at Work training course can be held at your work place for three or more candidates anywhere across the UK and includes both theory and practical sessions.
This course is also available as a blended course, which is an excellent approved alternative for those who are simply unable to spare the time to spend three days in a classroom only course. This is done with our video-based online course that is completed before attending a classroom setting with an instructor to complete the practical parts of the course.
Many of our trainers are experienced Paramedics as well as qualified trainers, which ensures informative, real life training.
By arrangement the training course can be run after hours as well as on weekends.
