Course Description
What’s It About?
A first-aider must have an appropriate first-aid qualification, and the qualification must be appropriate to the ages of the children in their care. Our paediatric first aid eLearning course allows learners to undertake online paediatric first-aid training, which forms part of the requirements needed for you to go on to achieve the Highfield Level 3 Award in Paediatric First Aid qualification.
This paediatric first aid eLearning course can replace 6 hours of the theory of the face-to-face course. However, to achieve the full qualification, you must also undertake at least 6 hours of classroom training. You must have your skills and knowledge assessed during the face-to-face part of the course, in accordance with the qualification specification.

How’s It Assessed?
The paediatric first aid eLearning course is assessed by multiple-choice questions at the end of the course. Candidates must score 100% to pass.
If the candidate does not achieve 100% the first time, they will be taken back to review the module they have struggled with. They can then retry the multiple-choice questions as many times as necessary to pass the course.
They will receive an electronic copy of your certificate immediately upon completion of the course. The certificate may be printed and used as evidence of this training.
Please Note
This online paediatric first aid eLearning course alone does not provide a qualification.
If you wish to achieve the recognised Level 3 Award in Paediatric First Aid qualification, you must attend at least 6 hours of practical training and assessment in a classroom environment. Please call us for further details.
