FIRST AID TRAINING FOR EDUCATION AND CHILDCARE MELBOURNE
JUNE 2022 - CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE UPDATED ADVICE ON THE DELIVERY OF FIRST AID FROM ASIC
The AISC (Australian Industry & Skills Committee) wishes to advise Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) of the following advice in relation to the delivery of first aid training.
On the 30th May 2022, the first aid IRC (Industry Reference Committee) discussed the current reasonable adjustments implemented for the global pandemic following a request from the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) to reconsider the current advice. From these discussions, the first aid IRC has advised AISC that all reasonable adjustments implemented during the pandemic should be removed before the 01st of September 2022. This means that training and assessment activities undertaken during First Aid and CPR courses will revert to pre-covid conditions.
Practical hands-on skills should NOT be taught ONLINE.
The practical elements of first aid MUST continue to be taught by all training providers. At the time of this notification, no Registered Training Provider (RTO) had been exempt from their obligation to meet the Performance Evidence (Practical hands-on components) of any first aid course in lieu of an online course. First aid should never be taught 100% online. For more information…click here.

UNITS OF COMPETENCE (SUBJECTS) AND COURSE DURATION
(Includes HLTAID009 Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation & HLTAID011 Provide First Aid)
STUDENT INVESTMENT: In-Class: 7 hrs & Online (Personal Study) 30 minutes to 3 hours*
This unit provides you with the skills and knowledge required to provide a first aid response to infants, children and adults in line with first aid guidelines determined by the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) and other Australian national peak clinical bodies.
This unit applies to a range of workers in an education and care setting who are required to respond to a first aid emergency, including asthma and anaphylactic emergencies. This includes early childhood workers and educators who work with school-age children.
Best of all, our approach to your training ensures that you will learn techniques and methods that can be used in real-world situations and not just in a simulated first aid scenario.
KEY INFORMATION
In accordance with the ARC guidelines and Safe Work Australia, you will need to undertake annual refresher training on the HLTAID009 unit (CPR component) of your first aid certification. You may also need to undertake annual or bi-annual asthma and anaphylaxis training.
PLEASE NOTE: Every employer is different. Depending on your organisation’s policies, this unit of competency may contribute toward approved first aid, asthma and anaphylaxis training under the Education and Care Services National Law and the Education and Care Services National Regulations (2011). If not, you will also need to enrol into the 22556VIC Course in the Management of Asthma Risks & Emergencies in the Workplace course AND the 225578VIC Course in First Aid Management of Anaphylaxis course. You will have the option of enrolling in both these extra courses during this course’s enrollment process! If you are unsure, please check with your employer.
*The actual face-to-face in-class delivery time will vary depending on class discussions and participant numbers. We expect that your class will only take 7 hours (face to face) to complete; however, we ask that all our students allow a maximum of 7.5 hours in their schedules, just in case. 🙂
*The time required to complete our online (personal study) component will also vary between 30 minutes to an average of 3 hours. The actual time investment will depend on your previous experience and knowledge with first aid and on how much time you take to go through the extra learning materials available.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQs)
Here are a few of our most frequently asked questions on this course; please click on any questions below to expand the content.
WHY DOES THIS COURSE HAVE A SELF-PACED (ONLINE) PERSONAL STUDY COMPONENT?
For this reason, we have developed an interactive, informative and enjoyable online personal study component split into nine topics that allows you to complete all the non-practical yet important components of your first aid course in your own time at home or at work. Our online component contains videos, animated videos and presentations that guide you through each topic. Once you have completed the learning materials for each topic, you will be asked to complete a small quiz to confirm your understanding of what you have just learned.
NOTE: Each topic has a quiz. The number of questions in a quiz varies between 6 to 16, depending on the topic.
WHAT IF I AM NOT CONFIDENT USING A COMPUTER?
Upon request, we will send you a PDF download of the first aid course student learner guide and student assessment, free of charge. You simply print the student assessment and write down your answers to complete the personal study component. Once you have answered all the questions, you can submit your assessment to your trainer on the day of your in-class training session. You can also mail your completed assessment to the mailing address we will provide you.
Please Note: We will always recommend you attempt to complete your personal study component online. Our team of trainers and administrators are available on our phones to support you in gaining access to your Learner Portal.
