FAQ
Questions, answered
How long is my certificate valid?
Your HLTAID011 Provide First Aid certificate is valid for three years, while the CPR component (HLTAID009) should be refreshed every 12 months — in line with ARC guidelines and most workplace requirements.
Will I get my certificate the same day?
Yes. Once you complete the practical and theory components, your nationally recognised statement of attainment is issued the same day — usually within 2 business hours by email.
Do you offer group or workplace training?
Absolutely. We run on-site group sessions for workplaces, schools and childcare centres with flexible dates and volume pricing. Request a quote and a coordinator will tailor a session for your team.
What should I bring on the day?
Just photo ID and your USI (Unique Student Identifier). Wear comfortable clothing — there’s plenty of hands-on practice on the floor with manikins.
What’s the difference between a CPR course and a First Aid course?
CPR (HLTAID009) covers cardiopulmonary resuscitation only. First Aid (HLTAID011) is broader — it includes CPR plus how to manage wounds, burns, fractures and other injuries until help arrives. Most workplaces require the full First Aid qualification; CPR-only is mainly for renewing your annual CPR component between First Aid renewals.
Do I need to complete online theory before my class?
Most course formats include a short online theory component to complete before class, so your time in the room is spent on hands-on practice. The Full-length course option is the exception — it includes all theory in class, so no pre-course study is required.
Do I need a Unique Student Identifier (USI) to enrol?
Yes — a USI is required for any nationally accredited course; this is an Australian Government requirement for all VET training, not specific to us. If you don’t already have one, you can register for free in a few minutes via our USI registration page.
Can under-18s attend a course?
Yes, with a signed parent or guardian consent form submitted before the course date. Confirm the minimum age and any course-specific restrictions with your team — this is a genuine eligibility question and shouldn’t be guessed at.
What happens if I need to reschedule or cancel?
You can reschedule your class using our online reschedule form.
Is my certificate recognised in every state?
Yes — nationally accredited unit certificates (like HLTAID011) are recognised Australia-wide under the national VET system, regardless of which state you completed the course in.
