Course aims and objectives
This 3 hour session is recommended to be taken every year so that delegates are able to refresh their skills and ensure they are working to the latest standards and regulations.
Employers are legally required to ensure their first aiders are competent and maintain their skills throughout the three years in which their certificates are valid.
This three-hour refresher course provides first aiders with an opportunity to practise and update their skills as a qualified first aider, at any time while their first aid certificate is valid.
The HSE strongly recommends that you attend a refresher session once every year during this three year period.
For further information, or if you have booked a place on the course and have not received notification to attend please contact the Workforce Development & Learning Administrative Team. Please do not turn up to any course unless you have received notification of your place as the event may be fully booked.
