Our Blended Paediatric First Aid Course is in 2 parts.
Part 1 is an online e-learning module which is completed before the practical training session on any computer or mobile device. You will receive a link to the e-learning module when you book the course. | |
Part 2 is a one-day face to face course where you will learn and demonstrate all the practical sections of the role of a paediatric first aider. |
This course has been developed for those who are working with children and infants. It will be of interest to teachers, child minders, crèche assistants, playgroup personnel and anyone else who has a responsibility for the welfare of children and infants whilst in your care.
Who Should Attend Blended Paediatric First Aid Training?
It is ideal for individuals who are responsible for children and infants, such as childminders, nursery and school staff (dealing with Foundation Stage) who wish to gain a nationally regulated Level 3 Award. | |
This blended course satisfies the guidelines and criteria as laid down by the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and Ofsted. In order to obtain this qualification, you must complete both parts of the course. |
