The course has previously been known as Level 2 First Aid or Senior First Aid. The HLTAID011 Provide First Aid course includes the skills and knowledge to recognise, respond to, and manage an emergency medical situation.
First aid course assessment involves practical demonstration of CPR. This demonstration requires access to a manikin. Because of this requirement, it would be unlikely that an online first aid course is an accredited course.
Non-accredited courses are not recognised as official training and assessment and therefore cannot be used as certification for employment or study purposes.
Basic first aid provides you with the knowledge to know how to recognise, respond and manage emergency situation. It is also the course that meets workplace requirements for first aiders.
First aid certificates in Australia do not have expiry dates. For work-related purposes, Safe Work Australia recommends refreshing/renewing first aid certificates to maintain currency in first aid skills — CPR certificates are to be renewed every 12 months, while first aid certificates are to be renewed every 3 years from the date of issue.
If you are completing the course for work-related purposes, check with your employer, as they will likely reimburse or pay for the course on your behalf.
