What Is the First Aid at Work Refresher (Requalification) in Chichester?
The First Aid at Work (FAW) Refresher, often referred to as FAW Requalification, is a comprehensive 2-day course designed for individuals whose FAW certification is nearing expiration. Completing this First Aid at Work Refresher Course in Chichester allows you to extend your Level 3 FAW qualification for an additional three years.
Unlike the initial three-day course, the refresher programme focuses on renewing your knowledge and giving you the chance to rehearse key skills with the guidance of an assessor. This course also ensures your compliance with the latest Health and Safety Executive (HSE) regulations.
Eligibility & When to Book in Chichester
This 2-day First Aid at Work renewal course is exclusively available to individuals who currently hold a valid FAW certificate. It’s recommended that you secure your spot before your certificate expires to prevent the need to retake the full 3-day First Aid at Work course.
A 28-day grace period is provided after your certificate expires. If the lapse exceeds this period, you will be required to complete the full FAW course again.
On the first day of training, you must bring proof of your valid or recently expired FAW certificate to attend the course.
What Will You Refresh/Practice During the Course in Chichester?
By enrolling in the FAW Requalification course in Chichester, you will revisit the entire First Aid at Work syllabus, ensuring that your knowledge is refreshed and your certification stays valid. Over the two days, you'll have the chance to practice vital first-aid skills essential for any workplace first aider.
- Adult CPR and AED application
- Managing fractures, head, spinal, and chest injuries
- Scene surveys and casualty assessment
- Understanding first aider responsibilities and infection control
- Recovery position and managing seizures
- Responding to heart attacks, strokes, asthma, epilepsy, and diabetes
- First aid for choking and severe bleeding
- Care for eye injuries and suspected poisoning

Assessment & Certification in Chichester
The First Aid at Work Refresher course in Chichester is evaluated through practical demonstrations, trainer observations, and a brief multiple-choice assessment. This combination ensures that you can effectively apply the skills you've practised during the course.
Upon successful completion, you will be awarded a renewed Level 3 First Aid at Work certificate, which remains valid for another three years and is fully accredited by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
Annual Refresher vs 2-Day FAW Requalification
The annual refresher and the FAW Requalification are often confused. The annual refresher is a short course that helps you maintain your skills, but it does not renew your certification.
If your FAW certificate is nearing expiry, you will need to complete the 2-day FAW Refresher (Requalification) course. This is the only course that officially extends your First Aid at Work qualification for an additional three years.
Who Should Attend This Course?
This 2-day FAW Refresher course is intended for designated first aiders working in medium to high-risk environments, including construction sites, warehouses, factories, and large office spaces. It is for individuals who need to update their qualifications to remain compliant with Health and Safety Executive (HSE) regulations.
On-Site First Aid at Work Refresher Course in Chichester
If you have multiple staff members requiring FAW requalification, arranging on-site training at your workplace can be a convenient option. An accredited instructor can deliver the full 2-day refresher course directly at your premises, allowing your team to refresh their skills together without leaving the workplace.
There are several advantages to on-site training:
- ✓ Flexible scheduling to suit your needs
- ✓ Tailored to address your specific workplace risks
- ✓ Cost-effective for training larger groups
- ✓ Group sessions to train multiple employees in one go
- ✓ Reduces travel time and time away from work

What Our Students Say?
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.
