This course provides you with the vital knowledge and skills that is needed to administer medical help and assistance. In many industries it is mandated to have a current first aid certificate, such as security officer, construction, hospitality etc. (If you are in the education or care setting, you will need to complete HLTAID012 – Provide an emergency first aid response in an education and care setting).
Allies Training Centre has been offering First Aid Training courses for over 15 years! The trainer assessors are industry experts who understand what is expected first aid as well as how to train average citizens to become competent.
Allies Training Centre has designed a flexible training program, which consists of a combination of self-study at home, and face-to-face learning and written assessment. Please note you are not required to do self-study prior to the course if you have First Aid course previously, however you must bring the original certificate on the day.
Our First Aid Training Staff have extensive experience in First Aid, and they are extremely professional in communicating the knowledge and skills.
The First Aid In The Workplace Code of Practice states that first aid should be renewed every 3 years, and the CPR component every 12 months required to be a competent First Aid officer.
