Emergency First Aid at Work
QA Level 3 Award in Emergency First Aid at Work (RQF)
Suitable for
Any person nominated by their employer as an Appointed Person in the workplace.
Course length
1 day
Prerequisite
Temporary physical impairment – In situations where employers inform training providers that an employee attending an FAW / EFAW course has a temporary physical impairment, it may be sensible to advise them to defer training until the individual is fit. If this is not possible and the student has a temporary physical impairment, affecting for example mobility, a training provider can temporarily accommodate this during training. For example, a knee injury may prevent CPR training as the person is unable to kneel on the floor, so the training could be delivered at waist height. Please note that assessments would still be required at floor level.
This course includes assessments where a delegate’s ability to pass may be compromised where their first language is not English – please discuss this with your delegate/s and contact us if you or they have any concerns.
If you have any queries do contact us for advice.
Certification
All delegates will be awarded a Norvic certificate of attendance accredited by Qualsafe Awards who are recognised by Ofqual. It is valid for three years.
