Completed the DS Top up course with Get licensed and passed. Adame who trained us was great, very professional and down to earth guy. Even though he’s had various jobs and years of experience in security he just treats you like a equal, no better than anyone attitude which is good. Professional training by trainers who WANT you to pass not a back street company. Will be definitely back again for further training. Thank you.

The process is very straightforward. Find a certified training provider and attend the relevant first aid course. If you pay attention to content and are participate, you will receive your first aid certificate shortly after.

Emergency First Aid At Work (EFAW) is the most common type of training. It prepares you to respond in emergency situations by providing treatment. The training consists of important theory followed by practical work where you will use dummies and other equipment. Some of the things you will learn include how to control bleeding, treat burns and administer CPR. Book your Emergency First Aid At Work training and become a certified first aider within 1-day! There is no exam at the end of this course and all the instructors we work with are certified and cover material in accordance with published guidelines.

This all depends on where you work. Depending on your employer, Emergency First Aid at Work could be a legal requirement. Some factors which are part of this include the risk assessment and the size of the workforce.

The Emergency First Aid at Work course is assessed during the class and does not have an exam at the end. As long as you follow what is being taught and are able to demonstrate what you have learnt, you pass on the same day!

Unfortunately this not possible as government legislation states that First Aid Training can only be delivered in person.

The Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) only takes 1-day or a minimum of 6 hours.

The three most popular first aid training courses are Emergency First Aid At Work (1-day), First Aid At Work (3-days) and Paediatric First Aid (2-days). What training you choose depends on the environment that you work in and who you work with. For example, if you work in a high risk environment, like a construction site, you will require the 3-day First Aid At Work training. In the same way, if you work with children, you will need the paediatric first aid. It is best to speak with your employer to identify the kind of training required before you book.
