First Aid at Work Requalification RFAW

​It is important that qualified First Aiders renew their qualification before it expires, as once the certificate has expired the individual is no longer considered competent to act as a workplace First Aider. This may leave employers without adequate first aid cover within the workplace.

 

This in-person 2-day First Aid at Work Requalification course is designed for learners who currently hold a valid First Aid at Work qualification and need to renew their certification in line with the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981.

 

The course is fully accredited, HSE compliant and refreshes both practical skills and theoretical knowledge while updating learners on any current protocol changes and best practice guidance.
