What Is the First Aid at Work Refresher (Requalification)?
The First Aid at Work (FAW) Refresher, also known as the FAW Requalification, is a 2-day training course designed for individuals whose FAW certificate is nearing expiry. By completing this First Aid at Work Refresher Course in Clydebank, you can renew your Level 3 FAW qualification for an additional three years.
Unlike the full three-day programme, this refresher is focused on updating your knowledge and providing the opportunity to practice key skills under the guidance of an assessor. It ensures that you remain compliant with the latest Health and Safety Executive (HSE) standards and regulations.
Eligibility & When to Book
This 2-day First Aid at Work renewal course is available to those who currently hold a valid FAW certificate. To avoid the need to complete the full 3-day First Aid at Work course, it is recommended to book your place before your current certificate expires.
There is a 28-day grace period after the expiration of your certificate. If your certification has lapsed longer than this, you will need to complete the full FAW course again.
On the first day of the course, you will be required to bring proof of your current or recently expired FAW certificate.
What Will You Refresh/Practise During the Course?
By attending the FAW Requalification in Clydebank, you will revisit the entire First Aid at Work syllabus, ensuring your knowledge is refreshed and your certification stays valid. During the two-day training, you will practice essential first aid skills that are crucial for any workplace first aider.
- Understanding first aider responsibilities and infection control
- Scene surveys and casualty assessment
- Adult CPR and AED practice
- Recovery position and seizure management
- First aid for choking and severe bleeding
- Treating shock, burns, scalds, and minor injuries
- Managing fractures, head, spinal, and chest injuries
- Care for eye injuries and suspected poisoning
- Recognising and treating anaphylaxis with auto-injectors
- Responding to heart attack, stroke, epilepsy, asthma, and diabetes
Assessment & Certification
The First Aid at Work Refresher in Clydebank is assessed through a combination of practical demonstrations, trainer observation, and a short multiple-choice test. This approach ensures that you can confidently apply the skills you've refreshed throughout the course.
Upon successful completion, you will receive a renewed Level 3 First Aid at Work certificate, valid for another three years and fully recognised by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
Annual Refresher vs This 2-Day FAW Requalification
It is common to confuse the annual refresher with the First Aid at Work Requalification. The annual refresher is a brief course that helps you practice your skills every year. While it’s helpful, it does not renew your certificate.
If your certificate is nearing expiry, you will need to complete the 2-day FAW Refresher (Requalification) course. This is the only course that formally renews your First Aid at Work qualification for an additional three years.
Who Is the Course For?
This 2-day FAW Refresher course is designed for appointed first aiders working in medium- to high-risk environments, such as construction sites, warehouses, factories, and large office spaces. It is ideal for those needing to keep their qualification up-to-date and remain compliant with HSE regulations.
On-Site First Aid at Work Refresher Course in Clydebank
If you have multiple staff members requiring FAW requalification, it may be more convenient to arrange on-site training at your workplace. An accredited trainer can deliver the full 2-day requalification course on-site, enabling your team to update their skills together.
On-site training provides several benefits:
- ✓ Flexible scheduling options
- ✓ Training tailored to your workplace’s specific risks
- ✓ More cost-effective for larger teams
- ✓ Group training completed in one session
- ✓ Reduced travel 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.
