Our first aid at work course is a training workshop that covers all the skills needed to become a qualified first aider. You will learn the roles and responsibilities of a first aider and how to attend to various symptoms and injuries.
Above all, you will be able to apply the techniques you learn on a casualty, until emergency services arrive.
Employers have a duty to provide immediate attention in the workplace for illnesses or accidents. In addition, having qualified first aiders at work is necessary and important for the safety of all employees.
Our workplace first aid course will provide you with the skills and confidence you need to carry out the role effectively.
This course will qualify you as a competent first aider and allow you to meet the first aid requirements for your organisation.

This First Aid course can be delivered in the following ways:
We have a range of live public course dates that individuals and companies can book, either through our website or over the phone.
The course is delivered in a classroom environment by a Highfield approved trainer. We will organise the room to have an open floor space where the practical parts of the course can be delivered.
Classroom based first aid at work courses can also be delivered in-house specifically to your company. In-house training is a popular option for many of our clients as it can be delivered at a site of their choice.
Delegates can also interact and discuss company specific examples during the training. The in-house format allows a large group of your employees to become qualified all at once.
To enquire, all you need to do is fill in our in-house enquiry form on this page. We provide all of our quotes on a case by case basis, depending on location and delegate numbers.
We also offer the eLearning version of the First Aid at Work course. This course is ideal for those who need first aid knowledge without needing to become a qualified first-aider.
The eLearning format only includes the theory elements of the course so, therefore, isn’t a full qualification. To obtain the full qualification, they will need to complete the practical in the classroom. Also, this course does not allow the learner to become a qualified first-aider.
Once the learner has booked, we will send them their login information to the eLearning portal. They will then be able to access the course to complete each unit in their own time. The learner must complete the course within one year before the license expires.
