First aid courses in Manchester
Looking for a first aid course in Manchester? First Aid Course Manchester — part of Skills Training Group — runs accredited, hands-on training from a venue in Audenshaw, on the eastern side of Greater Manchester, close to the M60, Ashton-under-Lyne and the Metrolink East line. From one-day Emergency First Aid at Work to the three-day First Aid at Work course, paediatric first aid and Qualsafe Level 3 Mental Health First Aid, every course is led by experienced trainers and leaves you confident and certified.
Greater Manchester workplaces are hugely varied — logistics and warehousing along the M60 and M67, manufacturing and food production across Tameside and Trafford Park, retail teams at Snipe Retail Park and Crown Point, NHS and care providers, nurseries and schools, and the office and media workforces in central Manchester and MediaCityUK. That is why we run regular public dates at Fairfield Golf Club and also deliver every course on-site at your own premises, anywhere across Tameside and Greater Manchester — no travel and no downtime.
Every Greater Manchester employer has a legal duty to provide adequate first-aid cover. Our FAIB-accredited Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) and three-day First Aid at Work (FAW) courses meet HSE standards in full — whether you run a warehouse off the M60, a manufacturing unit in Tameside or an office in central Manchester.
