First Aid for tradies and workers
Construction sites are high risk workplaces, and Queensland's First aid in the workplace Code of Practice recommends at least one trained First Aider for every 25 workers on a high risk site. Our HLTAID011 Provide First Aid course gives you that ticket, with CPR included.
The course has two parts: a short e-learning module you complete online before the course, then a 3.5-hour practical session at one of our training centres, where you'll practise CPR, bandaging and emergency scenarios with your trainer.
Choose your location
We run First Aid at Aspley and Rocklea in Brisbane, and at Ashmore on the Gold Coast. See the First Aid course in Brisbane or the First Aid course on the Gold Coast for venue details and session times.

Frequently asked questions (FAQS)
Do I need First Aid or just CPR?
First Aid includes CPR, so if your employer needs you to be a First Aider, book this course. If you only need to refresh your CPR, the CPR course is all you need. Electricians usually need the LVR & CPR course.
How long is a First Aid certificate current?
Nationally recognised units don't have an expiry date, but the First aid in the workplace Code of Practice recommends renewing your First Aid every 3 years and refreshing CPR every 12 months, and most employers follow it.
What do I need to bring?
One photo ID, such as a driver's licence or passport. We provide all the training equipment, so just wear casual clothes, and make sure you complete the e-learning before your session.
Can you train our whole crew?
Yes, contact us about group bookings for your team.
How many First Aiders does a site need?
The Code of Practice recommends the following minimum numbers:
| Workplace | Risk factor | First Aiders |
|---|---|---|
| Office | low risk | 1 for every 50 workers |
| Construction site | high risk | 1 for every 25 workers |
| Mine | remote high risk | 1 for every 10 workers |
