Paediatric First Aid Blended Learning

Cognet are able to provide a blended learning option for the 12 Hour Paediatric First Aid course. This comprises of an E-learning (Online) section which you complete before then attending a one day course. This course format is approved by OFSTED in the same way as the traditional 12 hour course and is certified by the FAIB.

The benefit to you is that you no longer need to give up two Saturdays or four evenings to achieve this qualification. The Online course can be completed in your own time and at your own pace and then you can attend one of our public dates to complete the course.

Initially, we would recommend blended learning for those who need to refresh their training rather than doing the course for the first time.

We are able to integrate the blended learning along side our public courses by making the second day available for those completing the blended learning option. Those wishing to complete the course in the traditional way can attend both days and for those who require only to complete the Emergency Paediatric First Aid course can just attend day one.
