This is a one day first aid course aimed at lower risk environments and enabling first aiders to provide assistance to those who are ill or injured at work. The course is typically run over one day, but it can be split over several sessions if needs be.

If you work in a higher risk environment then our 3 day First Aid at Work Course may be more suitable. You can check which course you need using our handy first aid requirements calculator

Our courses are fun and interactive and give you lots of practising of the skills you have learned.
