Blended Emergency First Aid At Work Course Manchester

We have been running public first aid courses across Greater Manchester since 2016. Our own training centre, Caroline House in Audenshaw, has hosted over 790 public courses, and we run regular scheduled courses at St Matthew’s Community Hall in Trafford and The Townhouse Hotel in Manchester city centre — more than 100 public dates are currently in the diary across those venues.

Because our centre is in the Manchester area, onsite training at your own premises is straightforward across the city and the surrounding boroughs: Tameside, Trafford, Salford, Stockport, Oldham and Bolton. We deliver first aid, fire safety and mental health first aid training locally, and being close by means we can usually accommodate short-notice bookings.

The HSE compliant blended 1 day Emergency First Aid at Work / EFAW training course must be a minimum of 6 hours training time to learn first aid with a mixture of theory online, individual and group work, and practical sessions.

3 hours of this blended online first aid course is completed at your own pace before the classroom time. The remaining 3 hours is completed in a classroom on a specific date.

Important: 100% online first aid courses are not valid in the UK, you must still do the practical elements of a recognised first aid course in a classroom.
