This Level 3 First Aid at Work course provides the training required to become a certified first aider in any workplace. It is a level 3 first aid training course that meets Health and Safety Executive (HSE) requirements, and is valid for 3 years.

Some key components of the course include:

  • CPR and AED
  • Choking

A 30-question multiple choice theory assessment covering both units of the course is also required. Learners must pass both the practical and theory components to receive their level 3 first aid certification.

Recertification is required every 3 years to maintain a valid first aid at work certificate.
