First Aid at Work Requalification (2 day)

This 2-day First Aid at Work course is designed for those who currently hold a First Aid at Work qualification which is due to expire.

Please consider the following rules for attendance:

A First Aider can renew their FAW qualification by attending a 2-day requalification course without question, if it is within 1 month past the expiry date

If the First Aider's qualification has lapsed by more than 1 month, but no longer than 3 months, then the First Aider can requalify by attending a 2-day course providing Special considerations have been applied:

Special considerations are:

- - A signed letter from the employer to the provider of the training stating that in their opinion, the First Aider is suitably experienced to attend a 2-day course and does not require a full 3-day FAW course

A decision is made by the provider of the training after discussions with the employer, or the First Aider, and deciding that their previous experience is sufficient to attend a 2-day course

If the First Aider has lapsed beyond 3 months then they must attend a full 3-day FAW course

The important thing to remember is that as soon as the certificate expires, the First Aider is no longer considered competent to act as a First Aider in the workplace which may well leave the employer with a shortfall of First Aiders. Therefore, it would be prudent to arrange their requalification before it expires.

Duration

A minimum of 12 hours spread over at least two days.

Ideally, the course should be run over two consecutive days, but we have the flexibility to accommodate your specific needs if you so desire, providing it is completed within 6 weeks of starting the course and the training sessions last for a minimum of two hours.
