  • When It Comes To First Aid Training We Are One Of The Best

    we are one of the best

When it comes to first aid training we are one of the best.

We believe in doing things right from the start when it comes to first aid.

One of our foundational elements was the launch of Warwickshire First Aid Training in April 2016.

Having taught first aid for more than 30 years, we gained a unique understanding of what we needed to do and accomplish.

We maintain everything under control through our established standards and procedures, and our external IQA team continuously checks this to ensure our compliance and fulfil our commitments to Qualifications Network UK, our awarding body.

when it comes to first aid

Our first aid training team

Our first aid training team comprises healthcare professionals with extensive experience and knowledge, both on the frontlines and as first aid trainers and assessors.

First aid training can be an arid subject if delivered incorrectly, which we can assure you is not the case with us.

Our training team understands how to bring first aid training to life and make it enjoyable for our learners.

Our learners can utilise the best training aids available to make their first aid training as realistic as possible, such as our manikins, which mimic a human body, making CPR more authentic for them.

It is a common fact that not all training providers invest in training equipment, which we feel is detrimental to the learner’s training journey.

 Each learner receives their training manikin for the duration of the course, a practice not commonly adopted by many other providers.

Regulated training only with us

Another thing we did right from the outset was deliver regulated training qualifications that are Ofqual-regulated and accredited by an awarding organisation.

After looking at more than 140 awarding bodies, we chose to work with Qualifications Network UK.

Their standards are very high, and they ensure that the approved centres they work with maintain these standards by having their EQA (external quality assurance) teams conduct centre audits.

Since 2017, when we became an approved centre, both our random audits and our unannounced external IQA audits have always been great.

Here’s a blog about the differences between regulated and unregulated first aid training.

So what makes us different?

Everyone learns differently, which makes us all unique, and our first aid training reflects this, ensuring that everyone has a fantastic learning experience with us.

Our first-aid training is open to all individuals, regardless of gender, race, or ability.

It fosters an excellent learning environment and makes group work more enjoyable for both of us.

Quickly noticing when a learner is having difficulty, our first aid trainers give them extra help and support to get back on track with their learning journey with us.

Our feedback from our students

When we conduct first aid training, we encourage our students to provide us with their honest feedback, whether it is positive or negative.

If it’s a problem, we will address it promptly. In our 30+ years of experience, this has rarely occurred, and learners can always reach out to the trainer if they have questions.

Learners have told us that they understand it now, whereas before their first aid course, their learning did not align with their learning styles, and they struggled to grasp the material.

Recently, another training provider was on the same site as us, and by mid-morning, our students were enjoying themselves so much that they wanted to join our class.

That day, we also got the training contract.

We are thrilled and smiling a lot.

Companies feedback

We always appreciate hearing from our partner companies, and many of them enthusiastically praise their first aid training experience with us.

As a result, they have awarded us some fantastic contracts to deliver first aid training across their network.

This also excites us and brings us a big, bright smile.

Conclusion

There are some excellent providers of first aid training.

You must conduct thorough due diligence on your proposed first aid training provider and investigate them carefully, especially if they offer unregulated first aid training.

Many training providers do not want to follow an awarding organisation’s standards or requirements, and they also do not wish for IQA or EQA scrutiny.

Training that is regulated.

You can choose a first aid training provider that offers Ofqual certification for their courses.

The HSE has stated that you do not need to go through their checklist because the training provider offers Ofqual-regulated qualifications.

Thus, the training provider has already completed the due diligence for you.

Unregulated training.

If you choose training that is not regulated, it is the employer’s legal duty to check out the training company, the trainer, and the course. Here is the checklist that you would need to follow.
