Traditionally, the Emergency First Aid course is an 8-hour in-class training course. Blended first aid training is a combination of online training with a practical in-class, face-to-face skill session that provides the best of both hands-on and online training, with reduced in-class time. This course includes CPR Level C.

We are operating with smaller-than-normal class sizes and will be maintaining physcial distance where possible. With first aid classes, this will not always be possible as we will need to practice and evaluate some hands-on skills. If you are not comfortable with this please consider signing up with a partner from your bubble, or not registering for this course. Facemasks, gloves and hand sanitizer will be available in all our classrooms.
