Protect Your Team, Protect Your Business
As a business owner or manager in Canberra, you know that your team is your greatest asset. Ensuring their safety isn’t just a legal requirement, it’s a commitment to a culture of care.
At Local First Aid Courses, we provide nationally recognised, high-efficiency training designed to get your staff certified without disrupting your entire work week.
Why Workplace First Aid Matters
In an emergency, the first five minutes are the most critical. Having a trained team doesn’t just fulfill a compliance checklist; it saves lives.
Legal Compliance: Under Australian WHS laws, businesses must ensure that an adequate number of workers are trained to administer first aid.
Reduced Workplace Risk: Trained staff are more hazard-aware, often preventing accidents before they happen.
Employee Confidence: Staff feel valued and secure knowing that their colleagues are equipped to handle medical emergencies, from cardiac arrest to anaphylaxis.
Fast Response: Immediate action reduces recovery time for injured employees and minimizes the impact on your operations.
Why train with Local First Aid Courses?
We understand that taking staff away from their desks or tools is a challenge. That’s why we’ve streamlined our process to be the most convenient provider in the ACT.
1. The “Express” Advantage for refreshing your training
We offer 1-hour Express practical sessions. Your team completes the theory online at their own pace, then joins us for a fast, high-intensity practical session and assessment. They are back at work before the morning coffee break or lunch is over.
2. Same-Day Certification
In a rush for a tender or an audit? We issue nationally recognised certificates (via our RTO partner ABC training 3399) on the same day the practical training is completed. No waiting for weeks to prove your compliance. Please note training attended on the weekends or evenings the certificate is issued next business day
3. Training That Sticks
We don’t do “death by PowerPoint.” Our sessions are hands-on, engaging, and led by local experts like Emma Helyand Rob May, who brings over 20 years of experience to every class.
4. Flexible Training Locations
Our Belconnen Training Centre: High-quality facilities with free parking and easy access.
On-Site Training: We can bring the manikins, AEDs, and trainers to your office, school, or worksite for groups of 4 or more
