Yes! We offer two online options:

  • Blended learning: Complete theory online, then attend a 2-hour practical first aid class.

Both options are fully accredited and result in the same nationally recognised HLTAID011 certification.

Which workplaces require HLTAID011 for compliance?
Most Australian workplaces require designated first aiders with HLTAID011, including:
  • Construction sites
  • Manufacturing facilities
  • Offices with 10+ employees
  • Hospitality venues
  • Retail stores

Check your state’s specific WHS requirements for exact ratios of first aiders to workers.
Can I claim my first aid course on tax?

Yes, you can generally claim a tax deduction for first aid training if:

  • It relates to your current employment
  • Your employer requires the qualification
  • It helps you earn your income
  • You paid for it yourself (not reimbursed)
Keep your receipt and consult your tax professional for specific advice.
How many CPD points are awarded for a first aid course?

Our HLTAID011 course is endorsed by Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) & Australian College of Nursing (ACN)

The number of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points awarded for a first aid course varies by profession and provider, but a standard course like HLTAID011 Provide First Aid might award points based on the hours of the course, such as 5 CPD points for a 2 hour CPR course or a higher number for a full 5-hour first aid course, with points also potentially differing based on industry standards like those for the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) or the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA).

What's the difference between HLTAID003 and HLTAID011?
HLTAID011 is the current course code that superseded HLTAID003 in 2021. The content remains similar, covering comprehensive first aid skills, but HLTAID011 includes updated guidelines and assessment requirements. If you hold HLTAID003, you should renew it with HLTAID011 when it expires.
Do I need any experience to do a first aid course?

No prior experience or medical knowledge is required! Our HLTAID011 course is designed for complete beginners as well as those renewing their certification. Our expert trainers will guide you through everything you need to know, from basic concepts to practical skills.
