Awards and Letters
Do you know someone who has assisted a casualty or carried out a commendable action?
We will be holding awards ceremonies for elected individuals. All nominations should be
in writing.
It is important to recognise and reward all the people that contribute to First Aid.
There are individuals and groups that give selflessly and others help the industry to
develop professionally. The awards system will recognise and reward these people. You

SERVICES FOR TRAINING ORGANISATIONS
We aim to give training organisations the ability to demonstrate a commitment to
quality by a process of independent accreditation. Your customers will know and
appreciate this mark of quality. We have two separate services to assist you in your
drive towards professionalism and accreditation.
The Approvals Process allows you to become approved to conduct basic first aid courses.
This will appeal to those organisations that do not wish to teach First Aid At Work
courses or those organisations that wish to develop a range of courses. Please call to
ask for more details.
The Excellence Award is for organisations that wish to demonstrate that they care to
offer the best possible services to their clients. We hope that clients will select
organisations with the award to provide training.
Our support for your business does not end here, we also offer a range of services as
indicated in the opening pages. Our services will aim to:
- Develop professionalism
- Increase your sales volume
- Provide expertise and business support
- Increase safety
- and much more
Please read on to find out about other approvals and services for Business Communities
and other interested individuals.
TRAINER APPROVALS
The Trainer Approvals System is designed and dedicated to the professionals that make
this industry work. We would like to recognise your work and celebrate your contribution
publicly. Becoming an approved trainer will:
- Demonstrate your professional attitude
- Identify your level of knowledge
- Make you highly employable
- Provide trading guidelines to protect you from organisations that do not pay you
- Make you accessible to our members.
Once you are approved we will place you on a list of approved instructors which will be
available to interested parties. Your services will be actively promoted and we can also
provide you with development activities, support, information. Please call us for further
information about how to become approved.
COURSE APPROVALS
When you have successfully achieved Approved Organisation or Trainer Status
you may apply to conduct any of our listed courses or you may submit your own course for
approval. It is important for you to note that we will not be providing you with accreditation
to conduct First Aid At Work Courses.
This system is particularly aimed at those organisations that wish to cater for sections
of the community that wish to practice recognised skills in the community and those that
have industry specific needs. The courses we approve are:
- Pediatric First Aid
- Advanced First Aid
- General First Aid
- Basic Teaching
- First Aid Instructor Course
- Defibrillation
- Postal Course
- Aquatic First Aid
Please call us for details of approved content for these courses. We will also be
developing an international First Aid Qualification.
APPROVALS
We have various award categories
Safety Standards Award

SAFETY STANDARDS AWARD
Many sectors of the community rely on activity and holiday providers. If you want
an honest and independent report or assurances of safety standards look for the
Safety Standards Award. Businesses and organisers with
this award will need to demonstrate adequate training and facilities for staff
and clients in order to achieve accreditation.
Businesses that wish to attain this award should contact us for the necessary details
we also have a range of support services for all clients. We look forward to enhancing
your leisure time.
EXCELLENCE AWARD FOR TRAINING ORGANISATIONS
The Approvals Process will allow you to achieve a Quality Award for the First Aid
Industry. Getting approval will reassure your clients that they are receiving quality
training and it will also give you confidence in the quality of instruction in your
organisation. All the organisations with the award will accept your standards and
there will be a compatibility between organisations which will develop a sense of
parity and community. It will assure organisations that instructors are trained to an
appropriate standard therefore it will assist you with recruitment. We hope that
organisations with the award will be selected in preference to those without for the
purpose of training in the community. You will also have preferential treatment for
all our support services, general terms and criteria are as follows. We appreciate
that it can be difficult to get tutors to attend training but the boost that we give to
the industry should make this justified and viable.
