CHOOSING YOUR TRAINING
Not sure where to start?
Find answers to the most common questions about choosing and booking your Northlight training.
If you’re choosing training for a workplace, our First Aid Requirements Calculator can help you understand how many first aiders you may need and the type of training to consider. You can also compare our courses above, or get in touch if you’d rather talk it through.
Read: How do I carry out a first-aid needs assessment?Emergency First Aid at Work is a one-day qualification covering essential first aid for lower-risk workplaces and nominated emergency first aiders. First Aid at Work is a more comprehensive three-day qualification covering a broader range of injuries and illnesses. Your workplace first aid needs assessment should determine the level of training you require.
Read: Do I need EFAW or FAW?Yes. Our public courses are open to individual learners as well as people being booked by their employer. Simply choose a course and an available date that suits you.
Our regulated courses lead to qualifications awarded by Safety Training Awards (STA), an Ofqual recognised awarding organisation. Our other courses lead to a Northlight certificate. Each course page shows exactly what you’ll receive and how long it’s valid.
Public courses are limited to a maximum of 12 learners, so everyone gets the chance to take part in the practical training.
More than 28 days before the course, you can cancel for a full refund or transfer to another date for free. From 8 to 28 days before, cancellations aren’t refunded and a transfer costs 50% of the course fee. Within 7 days, the full fee is payable and transfers aren’t available. If you can’t make it, someone else can take your place free of charge up to the end of the day before the course. Full details are in our Public Course Booking terms.
Certificates are usually issued within 72 hours of successfully completing your course, and we send them to you electronically.
Individual bookings are paid when you book. If your organisation has agreed a purchase order or invoice arrangement with us, we’ll invoice the organisation instead, in line with the agreed payment terms.
Choose a course to see its upcoming dates and locations. We run public training at selected venues across Northern Ireland, with new dates added throughout the year.
