Course Overview

Course Overview

The Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) course, as defined by the UK's Health and Safety Executive (HSE), equips individuals to provide urgent first aid in instances of injury or illness in the workplace.

This course covers a narrower range of topics compared to the Full First Aid at Work (FAW) course. It is structured to empower trainers to competently handle emergency health situations or to act as substitutes when a fully trained FAW individual is not available.

Our one-day EFAW course is delivered through direct, face-to-face teaching in a classroom environment. You can view all upcoming course dates below.

What Will You Learn in the Emergency First Aid at Work Course?

Participants in this course will gain fundamental skills in recognising and treating injuries or illnesses, equipping them with the abilities necessary for basic emergency first aid.

First Aid Training - An excellent training which was very informative and interactive. All of the the participants were encouraged to work together and thus added to the day. The trainer was excellent. Thank you.

The trainer on this first aid at work course was friendly, approachable and very well versed in her subject. She took questions and interacted with the class with ease and made the practical aspects fun while getting the information over to the class in a thoughtful and caring way. I have no hesitation in recommending this course.

I have organised for 4 staff to go through the 1 day emergency FAW course and 4 staff to go through 3 day FAW course.

STG have been very helpful with the organisation, very competitively priced, and feedback from all participants was that the representative delivering the training was excellent.

This is the 4th or 5th time certain staff members have went through the FAW course - but to a person they have each mentioned that the quality of training delivered was their most educational and enjoyable in their careers.T

he only adverse comment was the location of the training centre.

So thank-you.

Just completed a First Aid Course with the company and would like to thank Allan King for sharing his extensive knowledge and experience on First Aid and its application in real life. Allan was very knowledgeable and obviously experienced in his subject and delivered the subject matter in an easy to understand way. The practical part of the course was excellent and reinforced what we had learned. Facilities in the training venue which was easy to get to in central Paisley were good with tea and coffee provided throughout.
