Blended First Aid Courses
A note from our Managing Director and lead trainer, Dave Wardell.
In order to meet industry guidance and reduce contact hours we have developed blended first aid courses. Click here for our safety procedures (note these measures are now all but gone, but can be implemented as required) : COVID-19 SECURE - PROCEDURES

First Aid training is a legal requirement in workplaces and Ofsted registered organisations such as schools and child care facilities, childminders etc.
It is a legal requirement to do face to face training for first aid, but some of the course can be done online. Please do not book 100% online training with any other company as this is not accepted by Ofsted or HSE, and will likely invalidate your insurance and put employees and children at risk. Our courses are part online learning and part face to face, so you will get the same certificate as you would have received previously (emailed in PDF format after full course completion).
Each delegate receives a pack by email.You follow the videos, links, quizzes etc in the pack then at the end you complete the online test. Once you pass a credit is applied to your name. Then when you do the face to face part the certificate is sent.
The costs are £99 (all in) including VAT (£75 plus VAT) for the 12hr Paediatric course and £80 (all in) including VAT for the EFAW/schools course. £150 all in for First Aid at Work Requal and £250 for the full First Aid at Work course. This price covers the theory and face to face session. The full day for the paediatric course and the just over half day face to face for the EFAW/schools course can be taken any time from now. We will be running more courses to keep class sizes manageable and get more people through.
Please email us if you wish to book and we can sort out payment, usually by bank transfer.
Then when you find a suitable date on our website you would just sign up to the face to face session (at no additional charge) to complete your training, or if booking an in house face to face session this can be done when convenient.
If you use facebook you should like/follow us as we will be releasing developing information on our facebook page. ABC First Aid & Safety Training Ltd.
We only run open face to face courses in Lincoln and Rotherham. You could join any available course, with no time limit imposed, and of course we will be working around the clock to get everybody trained. If you are a group setting please contact us by email to discuss this as we will travel to you, as we usually do, subject to location. Note - the expiry date on your certificate will be 3 years from course completion (ie once you complete the theory and face to face parts), so you should sign up immediately.
Under new guidance there is now no limit to the time taken between the start and end of your course.
We aim to make this whole process very straightforward and each delegate will receive workbooks, handouts etc. by email, explaining the process, and with links to our purpose made videos, made by our lead trainer, Dave Wardell.
