Certification options: Candidates only needing an Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) qualification can acquire this by successfully completing just day 1 of the OFA course. Candidates successfully completing both days can receive an EFAW certificate in addition to the OFA certificate for a small additional fee.
Please note: Even if your work does not always take place outdoors but you are based in or undertake site visits in remote locations this might be your course of choice to comply with latest (October 2013) HSE regulations for the workplace based on your first aid needs assessment.
The courses below are open for those needing individual spaces rather than a group course. Please contact Andrea by phone 07818 258 799 or email to enquire about availability and cost if not stated - thank you.
