Yes. It is mandatory to present a valid form of photo identification when you arrive for your course. This ensures that all participants are correctly registered and that certificates are issued to the right individuals. Accepted forms of ID include a passport, driving licence, or any government-issued photo card. Without suitable identification, you may not be able to take part in the training or receive your certificate. Checking ID also helps maintain the professional and accredited standards required by the awarding body. It confirms that the person completing the assessments is the same individual named on the certificate. To avoid delays on the day, have your ID ready to show at registration before the course begins. ### When will I get my certificate? Certificates are processed shortly after the course is completed and successfully passed. Typically, you can expect to receive your PDF certificate within 3–5 working days via email. This ensures you have quick access to your accreditation, whether you need it for work, volunteering, or personal use. If you require your certificate urgently, it’s best to let the team know before your course begins. They can often prioritise your paperwork where possible, depending on the number of participants and administrative workload. Certificates are always sent electronically to maintain efficiency and environmental sustainability. ### What time does the course start and finish? Courses begin promptly at 10:00 am and finish around 17:00. This full-day structure allows ample time to cover both theory and practical elements thoroughly, without feeling rushed. It’s recommended that participants arrive at least 15 minutes early to complete registration and settle in before the session starts. The finish time may vary slightly depending on class size, discussion, and practical participation. Breaks are scheduled throughout the day, including a lunch break, giving you time to rest and refocus. Late arrivals may not be admitted due to the strict requirements for contact hours. ### Do I have to do the practicals? Yes. Practical participation is a mandatory part of all accredited First Aid courses. It ensures you can demonstrate the skills required to perform life-saving techniques safely and effectively. This includes CPR, recovery positions, and the use of an AED, all of which are assessed by qualified instructors. Completing the practical elements also meets the legal and industry standards for certification. Without showing competency in these skills, it would not be possible to achieve a pass. Practical sessions are supportive and guided carefully to help you build confidence in applying First Aid in real-world situations. ### Can I get an ID card certificate? Certificates are issued in PDF format only. This policy helps reduce plastic waste and aligns with the provider’s commitment to sustainability. The digital certificate can be stored on your smartphone, tablet, or computer, and is fully recognised by employers and accrediting bodies. Having a digital version also means you’ll always have quick access to your certification when needed, without worrying about misplacing a physical card. If you need to print your certificate for workplace display, you can easily do so from the PDF file. ### What is the full address of the venue? Once your booking is confirmed, you’ll receive an information pack via email that includes the exact address of your training venue. This pack also contains directions, transport options, and any additional details you’ll need for the day. The address is not shared publicly for security and administrative reasons, ensuring that only registered participants receive it. Be sure to check your confirmation email carefully, as it also includes important pre-course reminders and arrival instructions. ### Do you provide lunch? Lunch is not provided during the course, so participants should bring their own packed meal. Venues are typically chosen for accessibility, but some may have limited food options nearby. Bringing your own food helps ensure you can make the most of the scheduled lunch break without needing to travel. Water, tea, and coffee may be available depending on the location, but this varies. If you have specific dietary requirements, it’s best to prepare in advance. There are usually designated areas where you can comfortably eat your lunch during the break. ### What do I need to wear? It’s recommended to wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows for movement during practical sessions. You’ll be kneeling, bending, and performing resuscitation exercises, so attire such as trousers, t-shirts, and flat shoes are best suited for the activities. Avoid skirts, restrictive clothing, or heels, as they may make it harder to perform some of the physical tasks. If you have any injuries or health conditions that may affect participation, please inform your instructor beforehand so they can provide suitable adaptations. ### What is the minimum age to take part in a First Aid course? Participants of any age can attend a First Aid course to learn basic life-saving skills. However, to receive an officially accredited certificate, you must be at least 16 years old. Those under this age are welcome to join and will receive an attendance certificate acknowledging their participation. Young attendees often find the sessions highly valuable, giving them confidence and awareness in emergency situations. Although an accredited qualification is reserved for over-16s, the knowledge gained is still essential and can be applied in day-to-day scenarios or youth group settings. ### Can you deliver this course at my workplace? Yes. On-site group training is available for businesses and organisations across London and the UK. Having the instructor come to your location is often more cost-effective and allows your team to train together in a familiar setting.
