What First Aid Courses Do You Run at the NEC?

Under the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981, employers have a legal duty to provide adequate first aid provision for their staff.

Level 3 Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) - 1 Day

A one day Level 3 qualification. It's the most popular workplace first aid course in the UK. EFAW suits lower risk environments - offices, shops, hospitality venues, small businesses.

You'll learn the core skills every workplace first aider needs: CPR, choking, bleeding, and looking after someone who's unresponsive.

It meets the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 and is accredited by FAIB and Qualsafe Awards (HSE, no date).

Level 3 First Aid at Work (FAW) - 3 Days

A three day Level 3 qualification for higher risk workplaces. If you're in manufacturing, warehousing, construction, or running a larger team, this is the one for you.

It goes deeper than EFAW. You'll cover a wider range of injuries and medical emergencies. It's the qualification most Sandwell employers in industrial sectors choose.
