Course Overview

Complete Workplace and Paediatric First Aid Training in One Course

The Combined First Aid at Work and Paediatric First Aid Course is ideal for individuals working in environments where both workplace first aid and paediatric first aid skills are required, such as schools, childcare settings, sports clubs and other organisations working with adults and children.

This specially designed course combines the Level 3 Award in First Aid at Work (RQF) and the Level 3 Award in Paediatric First Aid (RQF) into 3 extended days of classroom-based learning.

By combining both qualifications, the course minimises the number of training days required while avoiding unnecessary duplication of content. Learners will gain the knowledge, practical skills and confidence needed to respond effectively to a wide range of emergencies involving adults, children and infants.

Successful candidates will be equipped to provide safe and effective first aid, including managing injuries, illnesses and emergency situations until further medical assistance is available.
