How much is a first aid course in Hamilton?

Hamilton first aid courses start at £85 per learner for a 1-day Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW), £195 for the 3-day First Aid at Work (FAW), and £145 for the 2-day Paediatric First Aid course. All prices include training materials and your certificate. Group on-site training at your Hamilton workplace from 4+ attendees works out cheaper per head — request a quote for an exact figure.

How long is a first aid certificate valid for in the UK?

Your first aid certificate is valid for 3 years from the date of issue. The HSE strongly recommends an annual half-day refresher to keep skills current between full requalifications. Before your certificate expires you'll need either the 2-day FAW Requalification (existing FAW holders) or the full 3-day FAW course (if your certificate has already lapsed).

What's the difference between EFAW and FAW?

Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) is a 1-day course for low-risk workplaces — offices, retail, hospitality. It covers CPR, choking, bleeding, shock and unconsciousness. First Aid at Work (FAW) is a 3-day course for medium and high-risk workplaces — manufacturing, construction, warehousing — and adds injuries to bones, muscles and joints, head/spinal injuries, burns, eye injuries, poisoning and major medical conditions like heart attack, stroke, diabetes and asthma.

Do you run weekend first aid courses in Hamilton?

Yes. We schedule weekend Emergency First Aid at Work and Paediatric First Aid courses in central Hamilton approximately every 3–4 weeks. Filter the date list above by "weekend" to see the next Saturday/Sunday sitting, or request a private weekend course for 4+ learners at no extra cost.

Can you deliver first aid training at our Hamilton workplace?

Yes — on-site (in-house) first aid training is our most popular delivery option for Hamilton employers. Our trainer comes to your premises with all manikins, AED trainers, bandages and certificates. Suitable from 4 to 12 learners per session. We cover the whole of Greater Hamilton including Salford, Trafford Park, Bolton, Stockport, Oldham and Manchester Airport at no travel surcharge.

Where in Hamilton do you train?

Our public courses run from accredited training venues in central Hamilton (within walking distance of Manchester Piccadilly and Oxford Road stations) plus partner venues in Salford Quays and Trafford. On-site training is delivered at your workplace anywhere across Greater Hamilton.

When will I receive my first aid certificate?

Pass your assessment and we'll issue your digital first aid certificate fast after the course — no waiting weeks for postal delivery. You can share it with HR, recruiters or insurers straight away.

What qualifications do your Hamilton trainers hold?

All trainers hold a recognised teaching qualification, a current First Aid at Work certificate and demonstrable real-world experience — typically as paramedics, nurses, military medics or industrial first-aiders. Trainers are quality-assured by our internal IQA team and observed at least annually.

Is your Paediatric First Aid course Ofsted / EYFS approved?

Yes. Our 12-hour Paediatric First Aid course meets the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework requirements for paediatric first aid, so it's suitable for nurseries, childminders and early years staff who need to satisfy EYFS / Ofsted requirements.

Can I cancel or reschedule my Hamilton course?

Yes — get in touch with our team and we'll do our best to move you onto a later date that suits. Specific cancellation and rescheduling terms are set out in your booking confirmation.

Do you train groups for Hamilton schools and nurseries?

Yes. School and EYFS settings make up a significant share of our Hamilton bookings. We offer Paediatric First Aid, Emergency First Aid at Work, AED & CPR and Mental Health First Aid as private on-site sessions during INSET days, evenings or weekends. Discounted block rates available for MAT and academy groups.

What's included in the price?

Every booking includes your training, a course manual, use of all practical equipment (manikins, AEDs, bandages), and your digital certificate issued promptly after the course.
