Workplace First Aid Courses are concerned with adult workers who need First Aid Training under the Health and Safety Executive and the First Aid regulations 1981.

The Combined First Aid at Work and Paediatric First Aid Course is great for schools that require both qualifications for workplaces (HSE) and for children (Ofsted).

First Aid and Anaphylaxis Training for Education Settings

Schools must arrange specialist anaphylaxis training for staff where a pupil in the school has been diagnosed as being at risk of anaphylaxis. The specialist training should include practical instruction in how to use the different AAI devices available. Online resources and introductory e-learning modules can be found although this is NOT a substitute for face-to-face training.
