Learning first aid is one of the many ways that you can prepare your home or office for a disaster. First aid training imparts students with the skills and knowledge they need in the face of a medical emergency. At the same time, it also teaches first aiders the right mindset they should have in order to take lead, make the right decisions, and avoid panic during times of need.
To make first aid trainings more accessible to everyone, Australia Wide First Aid offers quality first aid training courses in 21 locations across Australia. Our nationally recognised training organisation (RTO 31961) offers group and individual bookings, and students who are able to complete the requirements of the course will receive their Statement of Attainment within 48 hours. What’s more, our trainers and assessors can also conduct trainings in your home or workplace to impart you with skills and knowledge that are tailored to your work or home environment.
The courses and trainings offered by Australia Wide First Aid adhere to the guidelines set by the Australian and New Zealand Committee on Resuscitation (ANZCOR), and the certificates we issue are recognised across the country. We also comply with the VET Quality Framework to ensure that all our classes are conducted in a professional manner.
One of our training locations is in Mount Gravatt, a major suburb in Brisbane, Queensland. This training venue is accessible via public transportation, making it a great option for those who are commuting as well as those who are bringing their own vehicle.
Location
The Newnham Hotel, Conference Room 1, 516 Newnham Rd, Upper Mount Gravatt, QLD 4122 Australia
The hotel is just a stone’s throw away from the Newham Road Stop and just a 10-minute walk from Westfield Garden City Shopping Centre. There are also free parking areas on site. Students are encouraged to arrive 15 minutes before the training schedule, so they have enough time to fill out forms.
What Good Will It Do to Learn First Aid?
Learning first aid is a smart move if you’re living with a person who is at risk for medical emergencies, such as cardiac arrest and severe allergic reactions. The skills, tools, and knowledge you will get from a first aid course allows you to be of help to these friends or family members in times of emergency, potentially saving their life and promoting their recovery. First aid skills can also help you become more attractive for certain jobs, such as those that require working with children. In addition, the presence of a first aider in a workplace will help your colleagues feel safer and more secure.
How Do You Become a Certified First Aider?
Students as young as 14 years old can join a first aid training course. All courses have an online assessment part, and students need to complete this the night before their face-to-face training. Students need to submit a valid USI, complete their online and face-to-face training, and provide full payment for the course. Within 48 hours after completing all these requirements and passing their assessments, students will receive a digital copy of their Statement of Attainment via email.
