Concurrent First Aid & Emergency Care Courses

*The first 90 minutes of a First Aid, ART or ARTFA course is the content of the CPR Course. This means that members who only need their CPR could attend, and once the assessments for CPR are completed, they can depart and allow the members there for the whole course to continue with their course.

How to book a concurrent course

When booking a First Aid, ART or ARTFA course, book a separate CPR course using the same TAF/s and ensure that the number of candidates does not exceed 24 in total across the two courses. If you need to adjust the numbers to balance out the needs of your members, use the edit courses function, and the VT team will adjust your course numbers.
