First Aid Training Courses
Online first aid training that meets Health and Safety Executive (HSE) guidelines. Suitable for all workplaces and industries.
Why First Aid Training Matters
The Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981 require employers to provide adequate first aid equipment, facilities, and personnel. Every workplace must have an appointed person to take charge of first aid arrangements, and many need trained first aiders.
Our online first aid courses provide the knowledge element of first aid training, covering anatomy, emergency procedures, and casualty assessment. They can be used as standalone awareness training or as the theory component alongside practical skills sessions.
