What Is the First Aid at Work Refresher (Requalification)?
The First Aid at Work Refresher (FAW) Requalification is a two-day course designed for individuals whose FAW certification is about to expire. By enrolling in this First Aid at Work Refresher Course in Uddingston, you’ll be able to renew your Level 3 FAW certification, ensuring compliance for another three years.
Unlike the comprehensive three-day training, this refresher course is focused on refreshing your knowledge and skills. It gives you the chance to practise critical first aid techniques under the guidance of an experienced assessor, ensuring you remain compliant with the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) regulations.
Eligibility & When to Book
The two-day First Aid at Work Refresher course is designed for individuals who currently hold a valid FAW certificate. To avoid the need to take the full three-day First Aid at Work course, it’s important to book your place before your existing qualification expires.
A 28-day grace period is allowed after your certificate has expired. If your certificate is out of date for more than this period, you will need to complete the full FAW course to requalify.
On the first day of training, you must bring proof of your valid or recently expired FAW certificate to confirm your eligibility for the course.
What Will You Refresh/Practise During the Course?
By participating in the FAW Requalification course in Uddingston, you will revisit the full First Aid at Work syllabus, ensuring your knowledge is current and your certification remains valid. Throughout this two-day course, you’ll practise the critical first aid skills needed in the workplace.
- First aid for choking and severe bleeding control
- Adult CPR techniques and AED usage
- Recognising and treating anaphylaxis with the use of auto-injectors
- Managing eye injuries and suspected poisoning cases
- Recovery position and managing seizures
- Handling fractures, head injuries, spinal injuries, and chest trauma
- Addressing shock, burns, scalds, and treating minor injuries
- Conducting scene surveys and casualty assessments
- Understanding the role of a first aider and infection control procedures
- Responding effectively to heart attacks, strokes, epilepsy, asthma, and diabetes emergencies
Assessment & Certification
The First Aid at Work Refresher in Uddingston is assessed through a combination of practical demonstrations, trainer observations, and a brief multiple-choice test. This approach ensures you are confident in applying the skills you’ve practised throughout the course.
Upon successful completion, you will receive a renewed Level 3 First Aid at Work certificate, valid for three years and 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 is a brief course to help you practise your first aid skills yearly, it does not renew your qualification.
If your certificate is nearing expiration, you must complete the 2-day FAW Refresher (Requalification) course. This course is the only way to officially renew your First Aid at Work qualification for an additional three years.
On-Site First Aid at Work Refresher Course in Uddingston
If you have multiple employees who need to renew their FAW qualifications, organising on-site training at your workplace could be a more convenient option. An accredited trainer can deliver the full 2-day requalification course directly at your premises, allowing your team to refresh their skills together without the need to travel.
Opting for on-site training provides several advantages:
- ✓ Reduces travel time and minimizes time away from work
- ✓ Tailored to the specific risks in your workplace
- ✓ Cost-effective for large groups
- ✓ Flexible scheduling with a variety of dates and times
- ✓ Group training all in one session

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.
