Course Description

This course deals with the skills and knowledge required to provide an advanced first aid response, including bag valve mask resuscitation techniques, spinal management, and management of the incident and other first aiders until the arrival of medical or other assistance.

The unit applies to workers who may be required to provide, coordinate and manage a first aid response across a range of complex situations, including community and workplace settings.

There is a practical assessment (as per the unit of competency guidelines) of two (2) minutes of uninterrupted CPR performed on the floor, as well as a 50-question multiple choice assessment and
short answer assessment. If you are physically incapable of performing CPR on the floor, please contact our staff for further information.

The CPR (HLTAID001) component of this course is valid for 12 months and the HLTAID002, HLTAID003 and HLTAID006 qualification expires after three (3) years.

This course runs approximately 7 hours face to face with a pre-course online requirement to be completed prior to the face-to-face component.
