$150

 

First Aid Basics provides practical first aid training without formal assessment or NZQA unit standards.

​

You'll learn the same core first aid skills covered in our Foundation First Aid course, including CPR, choking management, severe bleeding, medical emergencies, burns, poisoning, and emergency response.

 

Suitable for parents, caregivers, community groups, sports clubs, volunteers, workplaces that do not require a nationally recognised qualification, and anyone wanting practical first aid skills for everyday life.

 

Choose your format:

• In-person: 6 hours of practical learning

• Blended: Around 3 hours of online learning followed by 3 hours in the classroom

 

For workplaces, community organisations, and private groups, content can be customised to reflect your environment, activities, and common risks.

 

No assessments. No written work. Just practical first aid skills that can make a difference when someone needs help.
