First Aid at Work (FAW) — 3 Days
The full FAW qualification for medium to high-risk workplaces.
First Aid at Work Requalification
Renew your team's First Aid at Work certificates — 1 day of e-learning plus 1 practical day at your premises — before they expire.
Course Overview
First Aid at Work certificates are valid for three years. This requalification course renews the full FAW qualification for staff who hold a current FAW certificate, refreshing their knowledge and updating them on the latest first aid protocols.
The course is delivered as a blended qualification: delegates complete 1 day of e-learning in their own time, then our trainer delivers 1 day of practical training at your premises — halving the time staff spend away from the job compared with a traditional two-day classroom requalification.
The HSE recommends requalifying before the existing certificate expires. If a certificate has already lapsed, the full 3-day FAW course is normally required — our team can advise on the right option when you book.
Optional Upgrade: Regulated Level 3 Qualification
If your organisation prefers a regulated qualification, we can deliver this requalification leading to the Level 3 Award in First Aid at Work (RQF), accredited by Qualsafe Awards, for an additional £200 + VAT (£850 + VAT in total).
As with our full FAW course, the Level 3 route is a preference some organisations have, not a legal requirement — the standard FAIB-accredited certificate fully satisfies the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981. But if an employer, tender or sector body specifically asks for an Ofqual-regulated (RQF) qualification, this upgrade covers it. Not sure which you need? Ask when you enquire and we'll advise.
