What is the “blended” option
The BLENDED option reduces the face-to-face time and allows for a safer, more flexible attendance at courses whilst still gaining the full award of HLTAID012 Provide first aid in an education and care setting, it is simply a different delivery method.
If you need to attend a first aid course but are limited in time – and do not want to compromise on the knowledge and skills you need to help save a life; then our “blended format” might be for you.
The BLENDED option requires participants to complete 2 x online modules prior to attending the course. There is approx 4-6 hours of work to be completed online – this is a pre-requisite to attend the course. Once enrolled, you will gain access to your Learner Portal – in the Learner Portal under LEARNING TO DO you will find the online module to complete

HAVING PROBLEMS with online work completion ? The most common problem that we find students have from an IT point of view with the online learning packages is “browser” related. We recommend you use “chrome” as your browser and we highly recommend that you clear the cache before commencing. This requires you to go to the top right of your browser ( 3 little dots ) and select “more tools” and then “clear browsing data” selecting all 3 options ( Browsing history, cookies and cached images). If you have any further issues please contact us directly.
Assessment requirements
We use online assessments via the student Learner Portal for this unit. A “smart device” such as a smartphone, Ipad or laptop, fully charged with internet access is required. A tablet is the ideal sized device for this purpose, however, a smartphone is still fine to use. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure they have such a device and have gained prior access to their Learner Portal. Information on accessing their portal is available on their Confirmation email or by contacting our office. All participants of our courses must have basic computer skills. Computer / IT skills include the ability to access emails and follow links within those emails, complete online forms and create / access online profiles. If you can navigate Facebook as an example you would have no issues.
There is some theory and practical assessment to ensure that the participant has gained the required knowledge and confidence in the skills covered in the unit. You will be required, as per the Training Package, to complete 2 mins of CPR on a CPR manikin on the floor. Participants will also be required to demonstrate various practical skills including application of slings etc
Course Duration
Face-to-face training using this option is approx. 3 1/2 hours plus recommended pre-course learning via the online learning module, online videos, and first aid book
Pre-course study
Completion of an online learning module ( duration of approx 4 hours ) plus an additional ChildCare online module is required prior to attending the face-to-face course. Participants will not be able to attend the face-to-face course if the online learning modules are not completed – a cancellation fee will apply if you are unable due to non-completion of the pre-course work. We also recommend you read the first aid book available on our website to aid in your understanding of CPR and first aid. Completion of this online work requires access to a computer with internet capability and the participant must have basic computer skills. Assistance is available if required by contacting our office.
There will be a short quiz at the beginning of the course on the information contained in the videos, this is to enable the trainer to better guide the content of the course for you.
