Quick checkQuestion 7 of 10

A 4-year-old with a known nut allergy has a swollen face and noisy breathing after snack time. What do you do first?

✓ That's right. Adrenaline first, then call 999 and say "anaphylaxis". Note the time. A second dose can be given after 5 minutes if there's no improvement.

Questions

Good to know

Do I need any first aid experience?

Not at all. Most people on our courses are complete beginners, and our trainers take things step by step.

How long does the online part take?

About 6 hours for blended courses, split into short lessons. It saves as you go, so you can do it over a few evenings.

Is the certificate accepted by Ofsted and employers?

Our courses are built to meet the EYFS paediatric first aid requirement and HSE guidance for workplace first aiders. Certificates are valid for 3 years. Full awarding body details will be listed here before our first courses run.

What if I'm ill on the day?

Send us a note and we'll move you to another date for free. That's our 48-hour illness and transfer guarantee.

Can you train our team at our workplace?

Yes. We can train up to 12 people for £595 + VAT at your premises, or at one of our school venues at the weekend.

Why do the dates show as fully booked?

Our first open dates are full. Join the waiting list for the course and venue you want and we'll email you first as soon as new dates open. There's nothing to pay to join.
