First Aid Course Online Delivery Methodology

This course is delivered through elearning followed by practical demonstration and assessment in the classroom.

The theory is delivered via elearning on your own time with a day in a traditional classroom setting for practical exercises and assessments. This element of the course is highly interactive and participation is required from learners. Once the learners have completed the elearning they will attend 1 day on Zoom and then be assessed in the classroom.

The elearning course is hosted on our WordPress Learning Management System. This is comprised of self-paced on-demand eLearning Modules

At the end of each module there is a quiz. Time has been allowed for remediation where the learner can redo the module if the quiz has not been successfully completed.

The learning course is then followed by a traditional classroom session which involves practical demonstration and skills assessment.

In the classroom session, the theory is recapped, the learners complete the 20 question MCQ and all skills are demonstrated, practiced and then assessed.
