The First Aid at Work (FAW) Refresher, or FAW Requalification, is a 2-day course designed for individuals whose FAW certification is approaching expiry. By attending this First Aid at Work Refresher Course in Manchester, you can renew your Level 3 FAW qualification for another three years.
Unlike the initial three-day course, this refresher focuses on updating your knowledge and giving you the chance to practice essential first aid skills under the guidance of an assessor. It also ensures you stay compliant with Health and Safety Executive (HSE) standards.
This 2-day First Aid at Work renewal course is available only to those who already hold a valid FAW certificate. To avoid the need to retake the full 3-day FAW course, it's important to book your place before your certification expires.
A 28-day grace period is offered after the expiry date. If your certificate has lapsed beyond this period, you will need to start fresh with the full FAW course.
Ensure you bring your current or recently expired FAW certificate on the first day of the course to attend the refresher training.
During the FAW Requalification in Manchester, you will cover the complete First Aid at Work syllabus, ensuring your knowledge is up to date and your qualification remains valid. Over the course of two days, you will refresh the essential skills required for every workplace first aider.
The First Aid at Work Refresher course in Manchester is assessed through practical demonstrations, trainer observations, and a brief multiple-choice test. This ensures that you can confidently apply the skills you’ve refreshed during the course.
Upon successful completion, you will receive a renewed Level 3 First Aid at Work certificate, valid for another three years, fully recognised by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
Many people confuse the annual refresher with the FAW Requalification course. The annual refresher is a brief session for practising skills once a year, but it does not renew your qualification.
If your certificate is expiring, you must complete the 2-day FAW Refresher (Requalification) course, which is the only course that formally renews your qualification for an additional three-year period.
This 2-day FAW Refresher is designed for appointed first aiders in medium- to high-risk environments, such as construction sites, factories, warehouses, and large offices. It is aimed at individuals who need to keep their qualification current and comply with HSE regulations.
If you have multiple employees needing to renew their FAW qualifications, you may prefer to arrange on-site training at your workplace. An accredited trainer will come to your premises and deliver the full 2-day requalification course, allowing your team to refresh their skills together.
On-site training offers numerous benefits:
The Manchester training venue is centrally located, offering convenient access for first aiders needing to renew their FAW certificate. The venue is well-connected by public transport, with easy access to nearby train and bus stations, and parking is available for those arriving by car.
Our learners come from not just Manchester, but also surrounding areas like Salford, Oldham, Stockport, Altrincham, Wigan, Rochdale, and Bury. Many workplaces from these locations prefer the Manchester venue for their staff to complete the FAW Requalification due to its central position and excellent transport links.
If you're interested in other types of training, we also offer additional first aid courses in Manchester, including Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) for 1-day certification and Paediatric First Aid for those working with children. You can explore all available courses on our First Aid Courses in Manchester page.

Thousands of first aiders and employers trust Hurak for their FAW Requalification. Here’s why our Manchester refresher courses are a top 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.
