Attendees on this course can be assessed by one of the following options:

1. Practical assessment of key skills e.g. CPR and recovery position.
   Theory assessment by an end-of-course multiple choice test.
   A good option for staff who want a mix of practical and theory and who perform well with written tests.
2. 100% practical assessment of all skills.
   There is no end-of-course test. Attendees must participate fully during the course.
   This assessment option should be considered for learners who enjoy practical work. It is a good option for learners who may not have English as a first language. Learners must still have a good understanding of spoken English.

All learners on a course must be assessed using the same option.
