Capacity for any size of employer. Up to 12 staff per session, multiple sessions for larger teams, and rolling programmes for multi-site organisations, delivered across every London borough.

Audit-ready compliance. We are a fully insured provider. Every delegate gets an accredited, Ofqual-regulated, HSE-recognised certificate valid for three years, plus a clear training record for your compliance file.

Why London businesses choose Amber Training for EFAW

We come to you

One of our trainers delivers the full 1 day course at your own premises anywhere in London, bringing all the manikins, AED trainers and consumables. Your team never leaves the building, so there is no travel time and no venue to hire.

Better value for groups

Because EFAW is priced per session (£550) rather than per person, training a group of up to 12 together is far more cost-effective than booking individual public-course places across London.

Around your operation

We schedule the training on a date and time that suits your business, including quieter days, so cover for phones and front-of-house is easy to arrange and disruption is kept to a minimum.

Genuinely compliant

The course is Ofqual-regulated and meets the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981, so it stands up to scrutiny from auditors, insurers and the HSE. Certificates are recognised by employers nationwide.

Assessment and certification

The EFAW course is assessed by continuous practical observation throughout the 1 day, so there is no formal written exam for your team to revise for. Your trainer assesses each delegate as they practise CPR, casualty management and the other skills hands-on.

On successful completion, every delegate receives an accredited level 3 (vtq), valid for 3 years certificate. It is recognised by employers, insurers and regulators across the UK and satisfies the first aid element of your workplace risk assessment. We recommend diarising a refresher or requalification before the three years are up so your cover never lapses, and we are happy to remind you in good time.

Not sure which course your team needs?

EFAW is the 1-day course for lower-risk workplaces. If your risk assessment calls for first aiders trained to handle a wider range of injuries and medical emergencies, you may need the 3-day First Aid at Work (FAW) course instead.
