First Aid at Work Re-qualification

First aid courses have an expiry date as the first aider may not necessarily be exposed to a first aid situation or emergency over a 3-year period. A re-qualification process is therefore required to ensure that the necessary first aid skills are retained.

Renew your First Aid at Work certificate before it expires

The certificate expires after 3-years, so it is important to get it renewed within 3-months before the expiry date. The course is a 2-day Level 3 OFQUAL accredited Award course and covers a summarized version of all of the First Aid at Work course content, as well as any new industry updates or content that might have been added.
