The First Aid at Work (FAW) Refresher, often called FAW Requalification, is a 2-day programme designed for individuals whose current FAW certificate is nearing expiry. Completing this refresher course in Blackburn allows you to extend your Level 3 FAW certification for a further three years.
In contrast to the full three-day course, this refresher concentrates on refreshing your existing knowledge and gives you the chance to practise vital first aid skills under the guidance of a qualified assessor. It also ensures ongoing compliance with Health and Safety Executive (HSE) standards.
The 2-day First Aid at Work Refresher course is available to individuals who already possess a valid FAW certificate. To ensure you don’t have to retake the full 3-day course, it’s recommended that you book your place before your current certification expires.
A 28-day grace period is provided after your certificate expires. If the grace period has passed, you will need to re-enrol for the full First Aid at Work course instead of the refresher.
On the first day of training, you must bring proof of your valid or recently expired FAW certificate in order to attend the course.
By enrolling in the FAW Refresher course in Blackburn, you will review the full First Aid at Work syllabus, ensuring your knowledge is up-to-date. This course, spanning two days, provides you with hands-on practice in critical first aid techniques under the supervision of an experienced assessor.
The First Aid at Work Refresher course in Blackburn is assessed through a combination of practical demonstrations, trainer observations, and a brief multiple-choice test. This evaluation ensures that you are confident in applying the skills you’ve practised throughout the course.
Upon successfully completing the course, you will receive an updated Level 3 First Aid at Work certificate, which remains valid for another three years. This certification is fully recognised by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and meets regulatory standards.
It’s important to distinguish between the annual refresher and the FAW Requalification course. The annual refresher is a shorter course designed to help you maintain and practise your first aid skills annually. While it’s beneficial for regular practice, it does not renew your First Aid at Work certification.
If your certificate is nearing expiry, the 2-day FAW Refresher (Requalification) course is required. This is the only course that formally renews your First Aid at Work qualification for a full three-year period, ensuring ongoing compliance with HSE regulations.
This 2-day FAW Refresher course is tailored for designated first aiders working in medium- to high-risk environments, such as construction sites, factories, warehouses, and large office settings. It is ideal for those who need to renew their qualification and ensure they continue to meet HSE requirements.
If you have a group of staff needing to renew their FAW qualification, it might be more efficient to arrange on-site training at your workplace. An accredited instructor can conduct the full 2-day requalification course directly at your premises, enabling your team to refresh their skills collectively.
On-site training comes with multiple advantages:
The Blackburn training venue is centrally located, offering easy access for learners to attend the 2-day FAW Refresher course with minimal travel disruption. The venue is well-connected by public transport, including direct train services and bus routes. For those arriving by car, ample on-site parking is available.
We welcome participants not only from Blackburn but also from nearby towns such as Darwen, Accrington, Oswaldtwistle, Great Harwood, and Rishton. Many businesses and individuals from these areas choose our Blackburn venue for its central location and excellent transport links, making it a convenient choice for FAW requalification.

Thousands of individuals and organisations trust Hurak for their FAW Requalification. Here’s why our Blackburn refresher courses stand out:
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.

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.
I found Hurak as a very well organised organisation. It has been so simple and a straight forward process during course top-up for the renewal of my first aid and my SIA licence. I'll recommend this organisation to anyone who volunteer for the training.
