The First Aid at Work (FAW) Refresher, often referred to as FAW Requalification, is a two-day course designed for individuals whose FAW certificate is approaching its expiry. By attending this First Aid at Work Refresher Course in Bedford, you can extend your Level 3 FAW qualification for an additional three years.
This refresher course differs from the full three-day training programme. It focuses on updating your first aid knowledge and offers you the chance to practise essential techniques under the guidance of an experienced assessor. Additionally, this course ensures that you remain compliant with the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) regulations.
This 2-day First Aid at Work Refresher course is available exclusively to individuals who currently hold a valid FAW certificate. To ensure that you don’t need to retake the full 3-day First Aid at Work course, it's essential to book your place before your existing qualification expires.
You can still attend within a 28-day grace period after your certificate expires. However, if your certificate has expired for more than 28 days, you will need to complete the full FAW course again.
When attending the course, remember to bring proof of your current or recently expired FAW certificate on the first day of training.
When you attend the FAW Refresher in Bedford, you will revisit the entire First Aid at Work syllabus, ensuring that your knowledge remains up to date. This refresher course, held over two days, gives you the opportunity to practise essential first aid techniques under the guidance of an assessor.
The First Aid at Work Refresher course in Bedford is assessed through a combination of practical assessments, direct observation by the trainer, and a brief multiple-choice exam. This ensures that you are confident in applying the skills you have practised during the course.
Upon successful completion of the course, you will be awarded a renewed Level 3 First Aid at Work certificate, which will be valid for another three years. This qualification is fully recognised by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
The First Aid at Work Annual Refresher is often confused with the FAW Requalification course. While the annual refresher is a shorter course designed to help you practice first aid skills once a year, it does not renew your certificate.
If your FAW certificate is nearing expiration, you must complete the 2-day FAW Refresher (Requalification) course. This course is the official route for renewing your qualification, extending its validity for an additional three years.

Thousands of first aiders and businesses trust Hurak for their FAW Requalification. Here are some of the reasons why our Bedford refresher courses are the ideal choice:
My experience at Ayotte Recruitment and Training Academy was first class. Three weeks ago, I attended the First Aid and Level 2 Door Supervisor SIA course, and my instructor Peter was very knowledgeable and thorough with his teaching. I learn a lot from him and his staff. Peter and his staff provided the group with some valuable insight into the security industry.
I just completed the First Aid at Work refresher course and I'm glad it went efficiently and in a friendly way. Thanks
I have used Hurak Training services to upscale my skills throughout my career and the construction industry and security the team is very supportive under understanding for people from all walks of life they give you personalise advice about the courses and during the courses they will always accommodate for support required throughout your training which is very unique and much appreciated so far I have successfully achieved my level three in first-aid and fire marshals and currently completing a course for CCTV security with this company through their partners the support team are very helpful and supportive and I look forward to completing this course To review this course.
My experience was great. I got detailed explanations of the course i did and it helped me pass my exam first time I will recommend it for other individuals looking to take a course
I needed to renew my security guard licence and do my top up with first aid training and Hurak were very helpful with getting it sorted ASAP. Good customer service and making sure everything went smoothly as possible.
