In a CPR course, participants acquire the necessary CPR steps, mnemonic aids ensuring long-term retention, and techniques adapted for both adults and children. Completion of this 90-minute face-to-face training results in a nationally recognised certification verifying newfound proficiencies.

How Are First Aid & CPR Courses Assessed?

The evaluation of these courses primarily involves practical training and assessment exercises.

First aid courses examine both your knowledge and practical skills in emergency response situations. Assessments cover various aspects, including demonstrating basic emergency life support skills, and sometimes involve written evaluations.

In contrast, CPR assessment solely focuses on observing your proficiency in performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

It’s essential for everyone, not just medical experts, to enroll in a first aid or CPR course. Acquiring these critical life-saving skills enables individuals to play a significant role in emergencies.

Beyond medical fields, having a first aid or CPR certificate is especially advantageous for those interacting with children, be it in home settings or educational environments.

Emergencies are unpredictable; they can happen anywhere, including workplaces. Hence, we strongly advocate for workplace first aid training to prepare individuals to respond to various emergency situations. Investing in First Aid and CPR training demonstrates dedication to workplace safety and can lead to further career advancement opportunities.
