The First Aid at Work (FAW) Refresher, also referred to as the FAW Requalification, is a 2-day training programme designed for those with an expiring FAW certificate. By completing this course in Salford, you will extend your Level 3 FAW qualification for an additional three years.
Unlike the comprehensive three-day course, the refresher is focused on updating your first aid knowledge and giving you hands-on experience under the guidance of an instructor. It ensures you remain fully compliant with Health and Safety Executive (HSE) standards.
To enrol in the 2-day First Aid at Work Refresher course, you must already hold a valid FAW certificate. It is advisable to book your spot before your current qualification expires to prevent the need to retake the full 3-day First Aid at Work course.
If your certificate has expired, you have a 28-day grace period in which you can still attend the refresher course. After this period, you will need to complete the full FAW course again.
Don’t forget to bring proof of your current or recently expired FAW certificate with you on the first day of training.
During the 2-day FAW Requalification course in Salford, you’ll refresh your knowledge across the full First Aid at Work syllabus, ensuring your skills are up to date. This course covers essential first aid skills that are required in the workplace.
The assessment for the First Aid at Work Refresher in Salford involves practical demonstrations, observation by the trainer, and a brief multiple-choice test. This combination ensures you can confidently use the refreshed skills in real-life scenarios.
Once you successfully complete the course, you will be awarded a renewed Level 3 First Aid at Work certificate, which will remain valid for another three years and is fully recognised by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
It’s easy to confuse the annual refresher with the First Aid at Work Requalification. The annual refresher is a short course designed to help you practise key skills, but it does not renew your certification.
To renew your certificate, you must complete the 2-day FAW Refresher (Requalification) course. This is the only option for officially renewing your First Aid at Work qualification for an additional three years.
The 2-day FAW Refresher course is tailored for designated first aiders working in medium- to high-risk environments, such as construction sites, manufacturing plants, warehouses, and large office spaces. It is intended for individuals who need to update their qualification and stay in line with HSE compliance requirements.
If you have multiple staff members who need to renew their FAW qualification, arranging an on-site training session at your workplace can be a more efficient option. An accredited trainer can deliver the full 2-day requalification course at your location, allowing your team to update their skills collectively.
Choosing on-site training provides various advantages:
The Salford training venue is centrally located, ensuring that first aiders renewing their FAW certificate can attend the 2-day course with minimal disruption. The venue is well-connected by public transport, with nearby train and bus routes, and there is parking available for those travelling by car.
Learners frequently attend from not only Salford but also surrounding areas such as Eccles, Swinton, Pendlebury, Irlam, Walkden, Worsley, and Monton. Many workplaces in these areas choose the Salford venue for its convenience and accessibility, making it a popular choice for businesses to send their staff for the FAW Requalification.
If you’re interested in other training options, we also offer a variety of first aid courses in Salford, including Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) for 1-day certification and Paediatric First Aid, specifically for those working with children. You can explore the full list of courses on our First Aid Courses in Salford page.

Thousands of first aiders and employers choose Hurak for their FAW Requalification. Here’s why our Salford refresher courses are highly recommended:
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.
