FAQ

A common concern for those considering a first aid course is whether they’ll have to take an exam at the end.

The thought of an exam can be daunting, but at Manchester First Aid Training, we want to put your mind at ease.

The short answer is no; there is no formal exam at the end of our courses. Instead, assessment is integrated into the training itself. Let’s explore what this means. 😊

Understanding the Assessment Process 🧐

During the course, trainers continuously observe and provide feedback as you practice first aid techniques. This ongoing assessment ensures that you are picking up the necessary skills as the course progresses, rather than being tested on them all at once at the end. It includes a combination of practical assessments, where you’ll demonstrate first aid techniques like CPR, wound dressing, and managing fractures, as well as theoretical assessments, which may include written or oral questions to test your understanding of first aid principles and procedures. 🩹🚑

Participation is Key 🔑

Our courses are designed to be collaborative and supportive, encouraging active participation. As long as you actively engage in the training and show a willingness to learn, you will surely succeed. Our trainers are always on hand to offer guidance and support, ensuring you leave the course feeling confident and competent in your first aid abilities. 👩‍🏫📚
