FAQ
Who is this course intended for?
This course is designed for professionals looking to train others in emergency first aid, whether they’re caregivers, healthcare workers, or community members.
Do I need prior experience in emergency first aid to enrol?
Due to the practical elements involved in delivering this we highly recommend that trainers have experience in Emergency First Aid. However, the course will provide comprehensive insights into emergency first aid (including delivery of the practical elements), preparing you for delivering training in this subject.

The course is delivered online, offering a mix of multimedia presentations, interactive sessions, and downloadable resources to enrich your learning experience.

Our Emergency First Aid Train the Trainer online course is meticulously designed and mapped to the standards of the Regulated Qualification in Emergency First Aid. While we closely follow the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981 and the guidelines set out by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), we’ve also ensured that the course content aligns with the requisites of the regulated qualification. This means that trainers, upon completing this course, are well-prepared to deliver training that meets the benchmarks set for emergency first aid in the UK.

The course includes online, automarked assessments to test your knowledge and ensure you fully understand the content.
Will I receive a certificate upon completing the course?

Does completing this course allow me to deliver first aid qualifications?
While our Emergency First Aid Train the Trainer online course equips you with the knowledge and techniques to deliver effective first aid training, it does not qualify you to deliver first aid qualifications. For that, you would additionally need a Level 3 Award in Education and Training and a regulated First Aid qualification in First Aid at Work (RQF). If you’re interested in attaining these qualifications, take a look at our First Aid QualifiedTrainer™ course that covers all the necessary aspects to become a qualified trainer for regulated first aid programmes.
Do I need to attend the Practical Assessment Session?
Whilst we do strongly recommend you attend one of our monthly Practical Assessment Sessions for Emergency First Aid, it’s not a mandatory requirement of passing the course.
