Community First Aid Training Support: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Registered community coaches can access subsidized or free training for CPR and defibrillator use to keep their sports clubs safe.
This scheme provides financial support to help community coaches learn essential life-saving skills. It aims to make emergency medical training more accessible for those working in local sports and community settings.
Who it's for
This support is available specifically for registered community coaches.
What you get
You can access training for CPR and the use of a defibrillator. Depending on the specific availability, this training is provided either for free or at a subsidized rate.
What it costs you
While the training itself is low-cost or free, you will need to commit a full day of your time to complete the required course.
The catch to know
The training is not a one-time event; your certificate will expire after two years, meaning you will need to undergo retraining to remain current.
How to apply
- Confirm that your status as a community coach is officially registered.
- Check the current availability of training courses through your local providers.
- Register for a full-day training session.
