About this course
This 6 hour Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) is ideal for low risk working environments, and will meet regulatory requirements commonly set by sports governing bodies in the UK as well as the FA.

Our blended training allows individuals to learn the theory at their own pace, at a time that suits them.
