QA Level 3 Award in First Aid at Work (RQF) - Level 3

Overview

An estimated 565,000 workers sustained an injury at work in 2021/2022*. So how are you keeping your workforce safe?

Having the correct first aid provision in the workplace is not just a legal requirement, it is incredibly important for the safety of all members of staff.

This course is specifically designed for individuals who wish to act as a first aider in their workplace. You will learn how to manage a range of injuries and illnesses that could occur at work and will be equipped with the essential skills needed to give emergency first aid.

What’s more, as an Ofqual regulated qualification, employers can book this course for their employees and rest assured that they have fulfilled their legal responsibilities for providing quality first aid training, without having to undertake any lengthy due diligence checks.
