About Us
First Training was established in 1997 to meet a growing demand for training and qualifications from people involved in outdoor employment, education and recreation.
This service has now expanded to include standard First Aid training and shorter courses, so that workplaces and community groups can meet Workplace Health and Safety requirements. First Training's team of skilled facilitators are experienced trainers.
They all have a wealth of knowledge and experience gained over many years with outdoor instructing and guiding, with NZ Outdoor Instructors Association, Surf Life Saving, First Response and Volunteer Fire Service. They apply real experience and theory to bring the learning alive.
Our lead facilitators all have Pre-Hospital Emergency Care and NZ Resuscitation Council qualifications and we have an advisory panel made up of doctors, paramedics, educators and lay people to ensure our courses meet the Australasian Resuscitation Council Guidelines and standards.
First Training is NZQA registered and provides Health and Safety compliant courses. The NZQA Report of External Evaluation and Review found First Training Highly Confident in educational performance and capability in self-assessment on 15 February 2011, 29 September 2014 and recently in December 2018.
