Blended learning is delivered as a mix of trainer led practical learning and at home e-learning module. The e-learning module supplements the teaching you have received in the classroom. During the practical session, you will work with our trainer in small groups of 2 or 3 to practice and explore all areas of first aid. On completion of the practical day, you will receive a unique e-learning code that will give you access to our e-learning module.  You can log in and out of this module as often as you like and work at your own speed. On completion of the e-learning module you will receive your certificate by first class post. During the e-learning, you have access to chat with a trainer and can download first aid resources.
