What Is the First Aid at Work Refresher (Requalification)?
The FAW Refresher (Requalification) course is a 2-day program aimed at those whose First Aid at Work (FAW) certification is nearing its expiration. This course allows you to extend your FAW certification for an additional three years upon completion, ensuring that you remain compliant with current Health and Safety Executive (HSE) standards.
Unlike the comprehensive three-day course, the FAW Refresher focuses on revisiting core skills and knowledge, providing a practical opportunity to refresh essential first aid techniques under the guidance of a qualified assessor.
Eligibility & When to Book
This 2-day refresher course is specifically for individuals who currently hold a valid FAW certificate. To ensure you don’t need to retake the full 3-day course, it’s advisable to book your spot before your certification expires.
If your certificate has expired, you have a grace period of 28 days to take the refresher. After this period, a full FAW course will be required to renew your qualification.
Remember to bring a copy of your current FAW certificate (or the expired one) on the first day of training to gain entry to the course.
What Will You Refresh/Practise During the Course?
During the 2-day FAW Requalification course, you will revisit the essential skills required for a workplace first aider. The training will ensure your knowledge remains current and your certification stays valid. Here’s a breakdown of the key skills you’ll practice:
- Responsibilities of a first aider and effective infection control
- Performing scene surveys and casualty assessments
- Administering CPR and using an Automated External Defibrillator (AED)
- Managing the recovery position and treating seizure incidents
- Responding to choking and severe bleeding
- Providing first aid for shock, burns, and minor injuries
- Treatment for fractures and head, spinal, or chest injuries
- Handling eye injuries and potential poisoning
- Recognising and treating anaphylaxis with the use of auto-injectors
- Managing medical emergencies such as heart attacks, strokes, asthma, epilepsy, and diabetes
Assessment & Certification
The FAW Refresher course is assessed through practical demonstrations, trainer observations, and a brief multiple-choice test. This ensures that you can effectively apply the skills and knowledge learned during the course.
Upon successful completion, you will receive a renewed Level 3 First Aid at Work certificate. This certification is valid for another three years and is fully recognised by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
Annual Refresher vs This 2-Day FAW Requalification
The annual refresher course is often confused with the FAW Requalification. While the annual refresher helps you maintain your skills, it does not renew your FAW certification.
If your certificate is about to expire, the only way to extend it is by completing the 2-day FAW Refresher (Requalification) course. This course formally renews your qualification for another three years, ensuring compliance with all HSE regulations.
Who Is the Course For?
The 2-day FAW Refresher course is designed for individuals who are already appointed first aiders in high- or medium-risk environments. These may include industries like construction, warehousing, factories, large offices, and other similar workplaces. This course is essential for those looking to keep their qualification up to date and ensure they meet HSE compliance requirements.
On-Site First Aid at Work Refresher Course in Enniskillen
If you have a team of staff who need to renew their FAW qualification, it may be more convenient to arrange on-site training at your workplace. A qualified trainer can deliver the full 2-day requalification course on your premises, allowing your team to refresh their skills together, reducing travel time and disruptions.
On-site training provides several benefits:
- ✓ Convenient for large teams to train together
- ✓ Reduces travel time and costs for your team
- ✓ Flexible scheduling options to suit your business hours
- ✓ Training tailored to your specific workplace risks
- ✓ Cost-effective for larger groups

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.
