Do you run ITC First Outdoor First Aid courses?
Yes. Our 16-hour, 2-day Outdoor & Forest School First Aid course can be certificated as an Ofqual regulated Level 3 qualification awarded by ITC First. ITC First is the awarding organisation; First Aid For All delivers the training. You choose the accreditation you want when you book, so the same course also runs under our First Aid Industry Body (FAIB) and Training Industry Body (TIB) accreditations.

Outdoor & Forest School First Aid Training Description
Please note that the outdoor first aid training location for this course may require a drive from the classroom training location. Please contact us before booking if you will be arriving using public transport. We can usually arrange transport to the outdoor first aid training.
Outdoor First Aid for forest schools and other outdoor activities involving children and adults.
NOTE: this is a 16 hour course split over 2 days: 8 hours per day. This is a longer day than most other first aid courses.
IMPORTANT: please bring suitable clothing and footwear. Some of the first aid training is delivered outdoors (even in bad weather).
The course syllabus covers all the skills and knowledge required in the following nationally recognised qualifications:
- Emergency First Aid at Work (6 hour)
- Paediatric First Aid (12 hour)
- Outdoor and Forest School First Aid (16 hour)
Which certificate you receive depends on the accreditation you choose when booking. On our First Aid Industry Body (FAIB) and Training Industry Body (TIB) accredited courses, a single certificate covers all three qualifications. On our Ofqual regulated ITC First course you choose one qualification – Outdoor First Aid or Forest School First Aid – with Paediatric First Aid available as a paid option. Please contact us if you are unsure which you need.
The training also covers the +F (forestry) first aid training requirement.
The training covers adult, child, and baby casualties.
This course meets the requirements of various national governing bodies such as British Association of Snowsport Instructors, British Canoeing/Paddle UK, British Cycling, and Lowland and Mountain Leader, among others. Please check your specific governing body and insurance requirements, and contact us to discuss if you are unsure of compliance.
On open/public courses we have identified suitable areas within walking distance, but for private courses (at your own venue) we need to discuss this in detail: not all workplaces will be in a suitable location for this course to be delivered.

Frequently asked questions
Is this the same as an ITC Outdoor First Aid course?
Yes. An "ITC Outdoor First Aid course" means outdoor first aid training certificated by ITC First. That is this course with the ITC First accreditation selected - 16 hours over 2 days, covering first aid for activities in remote and outdoor settings with children and adults.
Do you offer ITC Forest School First Aid?
Yes. Forest School leaders normally need outdoor first aid covering both adults and children, which is what this course delivers. It can be certificated as an ITC First Ofqual regulated Level 3 qualification, and is accepted for Forest School practitioner requirements.
Who awards the certificate, ITC First or First Aid For All?
ITC First is the awarding organisation - it owns the qualification and issues the certificate. First Aid For All is the approved training centre that delivers and assesses the course. Your certificate is issued in ITC First's name.
Is the ITC First accreditation included in the course price?
The ITC First Ofqual regulated Level 3 accreditation is an optional add-on you select when booking, alongside the certificate options from our other accrediting bodies. The current price is shown on the booking form.
How long is an outdoor first aid certificate valid?
Three years. We recommend annual refresher training in between, and booking your requalification before the certificate expires.
