Provide First Aid (Continuous Learning) Online

First-time students completing this course are required to enrol with a manikin pack. However, if you already have a manikin pack, you can enrol without the need to purchase it again, as you reuse the same set each year!

Course Content

This course is designed for individuals who might be called upon to administer first aid across various scenarios, including both community and occupational environments, this course is designed to equip participants with the necessary skills to respond effectively in these situations.

Continuous Learning

You can take advantage of our Continuous Learning model if you hold the same or comparable First Aid qualification, that was completed within the last 2 years. This unique model includes the annual recommended CPR refresher along with one component of first aid. By following this approach, you can ensure that your knowledge and skills are consistently up-to-date, and your certification remains current. This approach not only saves you time and money but also eliminates the need to repeat the full course.

How It Works

Our online First Aid courses are conducted via Zoom and facilitated by accredited Trainers. 

 Throughout the class, you will be actively encouraged to listen, participate, and demonstrate your practical skills on camera using the provided equipment under the guidance of the Trainer.
