What Is the First Aid at Work Refresher (Requalification)?
The First Aid at Work Refresher, often referred to as the FAW Requalification, is a two-day course designed for individuals whose existing FAW certificate is nearing expiry. This refresher route allows learners to renew their Level 3 First Aid at Work qualification for a further three years.
Rather than repeating the full three-day course, the refresher programme concentrates on revisiting key first aid knowledge and reinforcing practical skills through supervised assessment. By attending the First Aid at Work Refresher Course in Norfolk, participants remain aligned with current Health and Safety Executive (HSE) requirements.
Eligibility & When to Book
The First Aid at Work Refresher is a two-day requalification programme intended for individuals who already hold a First Aid at Work (FAW) certificate. To maintain continuity of certification, it is recommended that you secure your place before your current qualification reaches its expiry date.
Learners whose certificates have expired may still be eligible, provided the lapse falls within the recognised 28-day grace period. If this window has passed, attendance on the full three-day First Aid at Work course will be required.
On the first day of training, participants must present evidence of a valid or recently expired FAW certificate in order to take part in the refresher course.
What Will You Refresh and Practise During the Course?
The First Aid at Work Refresher in Norfolk revisits the full FAW syllabus, helping learners update their knowledge while maintaining a valid qualification. Delivered over two days, the course places strong emphasis on practising the core skills required of a workplace first aider.
- Roles and duties of a first aider, including infection prevention measures
- Assessing an incident, conducting scene surveys, and casualty checks
- Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for adults and safe AED use
- Placing casualties into the recovery position and managing seizures
- Responding to choking incidents and controlling serious bleeding
- Recognition and treatment of shock, burns, scalds, and minor wounds
- First aid responses for fractures and injuries to the head, spine, chest, and ribs
- Managing eye injuries and suspected cases of poisoning
- Identifying anaphylaxis and using auto-injectors correctly
- Emergency responses to heart attack, stroke, asthma, epilepsy, and diabetes
Assessment & Certification
During the First Aid at Work Refresher course in Norfolk, learners are evaluated using a combination of practical skill demonstrations, ongoing trainer assessment, and a brief multiple-choice examination. This approach confirms that participants can apply updated first aid techniques effectively.
Once the course is successfully completed, candidates are awarded a renewed Level 3 First Aid at Work certificate. The qualification is valid for a further three years and meets all Health and Safety Executive (HSE) recognition requirements.
Annual Refresher vs the 2-Day FAW Requalification
The annual refresher is often mistaken for the First Aid at Work Requalification. While the annual option provides a brief opportunity to practise key skills and maintain confidence, it does not extend the validity of your FAW certificate.
To formally renew an expiring qualification, learners must attend the two-day First Aid at Work Refresher (Requalification) course. Completion of this programme renews the First Aid at Work certificate for a further three years.
Who Is the Course For?
The First Aid at Work Refresher is suitable for designated workplace first aiders operating in medium- to high-risk environments. This includes settings such as construction projects, manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and larger office spaces where first aid cover is essential. The course supports learners in keeping their certification current and aligned with Health and Safety Executive (HSE) expectations.

Organisations with multiple employees requiring FAW requalification may benefit from booking the refresher course at their own site. The full two-day programme can be delivered at your workplace by a qualified trainer, enabling staff to renew their skills collectively without the need to travel.

- ✓ Training dates and timings arranged around your operations

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.
