Q. What is the course like?
Onlinefirstaid.com award winning, interactive courses have had wonderful feedback. They comply with all the very latest resuscitation council guidelines and have been written by first aid experts. The online courses are fully compatible with all computers and mobile devices and you can stop and start as often as you like. They consist of videos, step by step directions, info-graphics and diagrams with test yourself sections as you go. There is a multiple-choice test at the end and on successful completion, you can print your certificate yourself.
