This option suits teams that prefer classroom learning and want to develop their workplace and paediatric first aid skills together.

Two full 7-hour classroom days at your location

Learners complete the online theory before joining their instructor for practical training and assessment.

The classroom sessions develop and assess essential skills for responding to emergencies involving babies, children and adults.

The eLearning is a compulsory additional part of the course. The two classroom days do not represent the total learning time.

Both delivery options lead to First Aid at Work and Paediatric First Aid certification following successful completion of the required learning and assessments.

We deliver this course at your school, nursery, workplace or another suitable venue.
