Participants who successfully complete the course will receive their Certificate of Attainment via email on the same day as the course. Course organisers will receive a batch of all certificates.
The Importance of First Aid Training for Workplaces
Whether in the workplace or in the general public, first aid skills can be the difference between life and death. The Workplace Health and Safety (WHS) Act 2011 states that employers are responsible for ensuring that employees have adequate and up-to-date training in first aid.
However, only 1 in every 2 corporate workplaces arranges first aid training for their staff, according to the Australian Red Cross. The reality is, it’s not enough to have only one or two staff who are trained in first aid – as critical incidents can happen anywhere, at any time.
Workplace first aid training is the best solution for companies to comply with their safety obligations while providing employees with the skills to respond to medical emergencies. With a day of workplace first aid training providing up to 3 years of certification for participants, it’s something that all organisations should invest in.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most frequent questions and answers
Is There a Maximum Group Size for Onsite Training?
We can deliver onsite first aid training for up to 25 participants in one session. For class sizes of 1 to 7 a flat rate applies.
How Long Does First Aid Training Take?
First aid training will take a full day, between 5-6 hours. To ensure that all participants can focus on the training, we recommend setting the day aside and minimising work activities.
How Should I Prepare for my First Aid Course?
We offer on-site training for your team in various skills, such as CPR, AED usage, injury treatment, medical emergency management and more. We suggest that you come prepared for the course by wearing comfortable clothing that is suitable for hands-on exercises.
Where are the Courses Held?
We can come to your home or workplace and bring all required equipment, including a projector and props for the simulations. We can also schedule courses on weekends and outside of normal business hours.
How Will Participants be Graded for the First Aid Course?
First aid training completion is based on competency — each participant will be tested on practical skills and knowledge to determine if they meet competency standards. Our trainers are committed to helping each participant until they meet the requirements to successfully complete the course and obtain a Certificate of Attainment.
Who Should Attend First Aid?
It’s imperative that every workplace ensures there’s at least one team member trained in CPR and first aid to swiftly respond to emergencies onsite. However, it’s not just a responsibility limited to a single individual; extending CPR training to more team members is essential. Whether you’re a parent, caregiver, student, or community member, expanding CPR training within your workplace equips more individuals with life-saving skills.
