Emergency First Aid at Work Course

The Emergency First Aid at Work Training Course will teach you how to help someone who hurts themselves or falls ill in an emergency.

You will learn how to help people who are in shock, have been burned, or have wounds that are bleeding, as well as how to perform CPR.

You will also learn how to use tools like defibrillators that can help you treat patients. A Certified First Aider's help can make a big difference in how well someone gets better. Sometimes, knowing how to give first aid can save lives.

How each training provider grades the First Aid at Work Training Course is different. One part of every assessment is the on-going or continuous assessment, in which the trainer watches how you participate in class to see if you understand how to give treatment. There are also written tests, which are becoming more common for the First Aid at Work Training Course.

Most of these are multiple-choice and cover material from the course. Most of the time, assessments come at the end of your course. At the beginning of your First Aid at Work Training, your trainer will tell you how the tests will be done.

Emergency First Aid at Work training is now required by the Security Industry Authority (SIA) in order to take the Door Supervisor course. If you don't already have the EFAW qualification, you must take the EFAW First Aid course before the start date of the Door Supervisor course.
