The Health & Safety law requires that employers provide a safe and healthy environment to work in. If your assessment of first aid needs highlights the need for qualified first aiders, then this level 3 qualification (level 6 in Scotland) will provide you with suitable, highly trained personnel.
This course provides participants with a comprehensive overview of first aid procedures and techniques and step-by-step instructions on how to deal with emergencies. It also includes any changes that may have occurred since their last training session.
This qualification lasts for 3 years. To renew the qualification, learners must sit the FAW Re-Qual course. However, it is recommended that during the 3-year period, the learners attend annual refresher courses.
The instructor will carry out a written assessment and a comprehensive practical assessment each day. The results of these assessments are used to determine the level of award that the learner will receive.
A minimum of 7 students and a maximum of 12 students can attend this course. The minimum age for enrolling on this course is 14 years, and a certificate can be offered to all, subject to assessment. A student cannot assume a responsibility in the workplace until they reach the age of 16, and then it is the employer’s responsibility to ensure that the student is suitable for that role. The certificate will expire as dated on the certificate, irrespective of age.
