If you’re unsure whether you need FAW or a lower-level course, we can advise based on your workplace risks.

Not sure if you need FAW or EFAW?

If your workplace is lower-risk or you only require basic first aid cover, you may be better suited to our Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) Cornwall page.

The EFAW course is a 1-day qualification covering essential lifesaving skills, ideal for smaller teams and lower-risk environments.

If your risk assessment indicates higher risk or larger team requirements, the First Aid at Work (FAW) course provides more comprehensive training and certification.

Certification options

Some organisations require certification to be issued by an Ofqual-regulated awarding organisation.

We offer both self-certified and Ofqual-regulated accredited courses. The course content and training remain the same; the primary difference is the certification body and associated third-party fees.

Ofqual-regulated awarding organisation certification is available at an additional fee per person.

The instructor to candidate ratio is typically 1:12, with some courses being restricted to 1:8 or even 1:6.
