HSE recommends any qualified First Aider undertakes anual training where skills are refreshed & new information is given.
The HSE strongly recommends that qualified First Aiders and Emergency First Aiders undertake an annual refresher course to keep their skills up-to-date. The two courses, listed previously, last for three years before they need to be renewed. However, it is widely accepted that this period is too long without any up-to date training. Participants from 14 years of age may attend.
