Automated External Defibrillation (AED) & Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Course
The FAB Training certification is valid for 1yr from the date of assessment.
HSE recommends that you attend the 3 day FAW course if more than a month has elapsed since expiry.
All of our trainers hold a minimum of a level 3 award in Education and Training, or higher and a valid level 3 First Aid at Work certificate or higher. All trainers are subject to annual internal quality assurance (IQA) and must hold valid public liability insurance and or membership of the Royal Life Saving Society (RLSS) or another similar organisation.
The HSE strongly advises employers to provide annual refresher training for their first aiders. These short courses, lasting less than half a day, help maintain their competency until they re-qualify. Introducing annual refresher training can minimise risks and ensure your first aiders remain competent.
Candidates seeking ATPRA renewal must complete the course and assessment required for new candidates within the validity period of their current certificate.
