How is the FAW course assessed?
On the AMTD First Aid At Work Training Course, you will learn a variety of practical skills and our Trainers will observe you during your practice sessions to ensure you meet the required standard. They will give you lots of feedback and guide and support you to be successful.
At the end of day 3 you will take a multiple-choice exam so will need a reasonable understanding of written English. We can support people who do not have English as their first language, but we need to be aware of this requirement in advance so that we can inform the Awarding Organisation that we will be putting some special arrangements in place.
