What Is the First Aid at Work Refresher Course?
The First Aid at Work (FAW) Refresher Course, sometimes called the FAW Requalification, is a two-day training designed for those whose certification is nearing its expiry. By enrolling in the First Aid at Work Refresher Course in Telford, you’ll renew your Level 3 FAW qualification for a further three years.
This course offers a condensed version of the original three-day programme, focusing on reinforcing key techniques, refreshing theoretical knowledge, and providing practical sessions led by qualified assessors. It ensures you remain fully aligned with current Health and Safety Executive (HSE) standards and workplace safety regulations.
Eligibility and When to Enrol
The two-day First Aid at Work Refresher Course in Telford is intended for learners who currently possess a valid FAW certificate that’s approaching expiry. It’s best to secure your booking before your qualification runs out, so you won’t need to complete the full three-day First Aid at Work course again.
If your existing certificate has already expired, you may still join the refresher within the 28-day grace period. However, once this window has passed, you’ll be required to retake the full FAW course from the beginning.
When attending the training, make sure to bring your current or recently expired FAW certificate on the first day as evidence of eligibility.
What Will You Revise and Practise During the Course?
During the First Aid at Work Refresher in Telford, you’ll revisit the full FAW syllabus to bring your skills and understanding up to current standards. Across the two training days, you’ll take part in a series of practical exercises and scenario-based sessions designed to reinforce your confidence as a qualified first aider.
- Performing CPR on adults and using an AED safely
- Placing casualties in the recovery position and responding to seizures
- Handling choking incidents and controlling serious bleeding
- Treating burns, scalds, shock, and minor workplace injuries
- Supporting casualties with fractures, spinal, chest, or head injuries
- Providing care for eye injuries and accidental poisoning
- Identifying and managing anaphylaxis using auto-injectors
- Recognising symptoms and delivering first aid for heart attack, stroke, asthma, epilepsy, and diabetes
- Carrying out scene assessments and prioritising casualty care
- Applying infection control measures and understanding first aider duties
Assessment and Certification
The First Aid at Work Refresher Course in Telford is evaluated through a combination of practical skill demonstrations, direct trainer observations, and a short written multiple-choice assessment. These methods confirm that you’re confident and capable of applying what you’ve learned in real workplace situations.
After successfully completing the course, you’ll be awarded a renewed Level 3 First Aid at Work certificate. This certification remains valid for three years and is fully recognised by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) across the UK.
Annual Refresher vs. 2-Day FAW Requalification
Many people often confuse the one-day annual refresher with the official First Aid at Work Requalification. The annual refresher is a brief session designed to help first aiders keep their practical skills sharp throughout the year. While it’s a great way to maintain confidence, it doesn’t extend the validity of your existing certificate.
When your certificate is close to expiry, you’ll need to complete the full 2-day FAW Refresher (Requalification) course in Telford. This is the recognised route to renew your First Aid at Work qualification for another three years under current HSE regulations.
Who Should Take This Course?

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.
I just completed the First Aid at Work refresher course and I'm glad it went efficiently and in a friendly way. Thanks
