Entry Requirements:

There are no prerequisite units, however as this course recognises your prior knowledge and current skills, it is recommended that you hold a current HLTAID009 certificate, as this course modality is an assessment only pathway.  Participants will need the ability to meet the physical demands of providing CPR, you must perform CPR on the floor, applying both breaths and compressions, as well as working with a partner with on/off-floor scenario's.  Participants must possess functional written and spoken English skills to make accurate verbal reports in-class, to replicate reporting to emergency services and workplace supervisor.  You must have internet access and a current browser, as well as skills sufficient to follow a video learning program, to complete the on-line pre-course work, as well as assessments in-class.

Training and assessment arrangements:

This accredited course is delivered in English (unless otherwise arranged), providing participants with the knowledge and skills to confidently recognise and respond to an emergency situation requiring CPR.  All courses are conducted either on site or at our training rooms, at a time to suit the facility or the majority of the participants.

  2. 1.5hr course - 1.5 hr face-to-face classroom training and assessment + 1 hour (approx) pre-course on-line knowledge learning & assessment


Our First Aid educator observes the participants application of skills and knowledge throughout the practical sessions, during various simulated emergency scenarios and skill stations both on and off the floor, including responding appropriately to verbal questioning, contextualised to the candidate's workplace/community settings.  You will have opportunities to discuss and reflect on your performance against the criteria during in-class scenario's.

CPR assessment requires candidates to perform at least two (2) minutes of single rescuer uninterrupted CPR on an adult resuscitation manikin placed on the floor and an infant resuscitation manikin placed on a firm surface.  In a scenario, participants will also work in a small team to demonstrate a rotation of operators with minimal interruptions to compression's, while applying an AED during an emergency CPR scenario, on an adult resuscitation manikin placed on the floor.  In a scenario, participants will also manage an unconscious, breathing casualty including appropriate positioning to reduce the risk of airway compromise, manually assess vital signs, and provide an accurate verbal report of the incident.
