Under every video, we have added text to support the video and you also receive manuals and downloads free. To keep your skills fresh, you can opt for free weekly refresher videos. You are assessed during the course and at the end, there is a final multiple-choice test. If you get a question wrong you will be given support to ensure you understand every part. You can re-take the test without charge. This may be an online course, but you can still contact us by phone, online chat or email.

Questions and answers
Will this allow me to become a qualified first aided in a workplace?
Answer:To be a qualified First Aider in the workplace you would usually need to do Emergency First Aid at Work or First Aid at Work (blended or classroom), however this may meet your company's HSE risk assessment. An Appointed Person deputises for the first aider and is in charge of first aid arrangements. This includes looking after the equipment, facilities and calling the emergency services.
