Course entry
Ideal course for beginners
This course is designed for anyone who is required to hold a first aid qualification in an education and care setting or who would like to extend on the ‘Provide first aid’ course with additional information specific to children.
The qualification expires in three years and also requires the CPR component to be updated within 12 months to ensure the certification is current.
Delivery and assessment
Pre-workshop learning activities are completed via our immersive online learning portal through interactive eLearning modules, videos and quizzes. Once you finish your pre-workshop learning activities you can commence the hands-on workshop!
After the pre-work you will attend a hands-on workshop which presents real-life scenarios, demonstrations and simulations. Learners can then practice what they’ve learned while still receiving clear guidance, feedback and support.
Outcomes

The CPR component will need to be completed on the floor using adult, child and infant manikins, in accordance with Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) guidelines.
