Online First Aid Course – Theoretical Refresher
Faster and safer decisions when something happens
In an emergency, it is important to secure the scene, notify the appropriate authorities, and begin the most critical actions without unnecessary delay. This online first-aid course provides employees, managers, and teams with a structured theoretical refresher on first aid in the workplace.
Refresh your knowledge—take a first aid course in your area
The course provides a refresher on the theory. Practical training can be arranged at the workplace with an instructor who has the necessary first aid certification. Practice CPR on a training manikin, use of an AED, and scenarios that might occur at your workplace. The employer tailors the exercises and follow-up to the risks present in the workplace.
Hands-on training is not included in the online course. You should also familiarize yourself with local first-aid equipment, emergency notification procedures, and who does what in the event of an accident. FSE work has its own requirements for annual first-aid training.
The course is designed for businesses in all industries and can be used as part of a company’s scheduled training and refresher programs. Participants take the course at their own pace on a smartphone, tablet, or computer, and can pause and resume later.
