Who is this course for?
This course is for anyone with a current and valid First Aid at Work (FAW) certificate who needs to renew it before expiry. It's designed to refresh your knowledge and practical skills while bringing you up to date with the latest protocols and guidance. At The Hive Collaborative, we place real emphasis on practical competence — not just passing the exam. While certification does require successful assessment, our trainers are here to support both your academic confidence and hands-on skills. We want you to leave feeling ready, not just certified. If you originally trained elsewhere, we hope you’ll notice a meaningful difference in how we teach and support you throughout your requalification.
What does the course cover?
You’ll revisit key topics from the full FAW course, including:
First Aid at Work Requalification Courses
- Scene safety and primary surveys
- CPR (including AED use)
- Unconscious casualty management
- Control of bleeding and shock
- Seizures, choking, and medical emergencies
- Fractures, burns, and soft tissue injuries
- Workplace reporting and responsibilities
💡 First Aider Tip:If you're not comfortable giving rescue breaths during CPR, hands-only CPR is still highly effective. Push hard and fast in the centre of the chest — staying calm and taking action really can save a life.

🌟 From the Hive: A Note of ThanksWe’re proud to share that The Hive Collaborative has now been delivering accredited first aid training for over four years. One of the most rewarding signs of our impact is seeing returning clients book their First Aid Requalification courses with us.
We sincerely appreciate those who choose to train with us again. It’s always valuable to hear their stories — whether they’ve had to put their skills into action, or have suggestions for how we can improve the way we teach.
Since all of our trainers are qualified medical practitioners — including doctors, paramedics, and nurses — it’s essential that we tailor our training for people who don’t have that clinical background. Our goal is to make potentially daunting situations feel manageable, and to give learners the confidence to act when it really counts.

Recognised Training Backed by Industry Leaders
At The Hive Collaborative, we deliver regulated first aid qualifications that meet UK legal requirements and best practice standards. Our courses are quality assured through Qualsafe Awards – one of the UK’s largest Ofqual-recognised awarding organisations.
Whether you're an employer looking to meet compliance obligations, or a learner seeking trusted certification, you can feel confident in the qualifications we provide.
Understand Your Legal First Aid Duties
As an employer in the UK, it’s your legal responsibility to ensure that your workplace has adequate and appropriate first aid provision. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) offers clear and practical guidance to help you meet this obligation.
For example, you must assess your first aid needs, designate trained first aiders, and make sure that the level of cover is suitable for your specific work environment. Fortunately, the HSE makes it easy to understand what’s required, especially if you’re new to managing health and safety.
To stay compliant and confident, we recommend reviewing the official HSE legislation. This resource is particularly useful for employers who want to make informed decisions and avoid unnecessary risk.
The First Aid at Work Requalification course is a certified 2-day refresher for those with a valid FAW certificate. Delivered at our Deeside training centre or on-site across North Wales and the North West, it updates your skills and keeps you HSE compliant. We also travel further afield for group bookings — transparent travel charges apply.
