Who’s it for?
Our course is tailored for individuals working in registered childcare settings with children aged 0-14 years, including childminders, playgroups, nurseries, and out-of-school settings. It is also suitable for those completing Childcare NVQs, as we are happy to sign off witness statements related to the First Aid Unit. This qualification is ideal for anyone with specific responsibilities at work or in voluntary and community activities to provide first aid in emergency situations.
What is Blended Learning?
Blended learning seamlessly integrates online and face-to-face instruction, providing the flexibility to complete Day 1 at your own pace in bitesize chunks or a straight 6-hour session, before attending the Day 2 classroom session. This innovative approach combines the convenience of remote learning with the practical experience gained from hands-on training, ensuring a comprehensive and engaging educational experience.
