This 2-day Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) course is designed for responders with relevant previous training or experience who are ready to formalise their skills through the FREC pathway. It’s suitable for Community First Responders, firefighters, and those holding qualifications such as FROS, FPOS, or RTACC. Eligibility is subject to approval by Qualsafe Awards.
Taught by two experienced clinicians, the course is practical, hands-on, and focused on the reality of frontline response. You’ll build on your existing knowledge through structured scenarios and realistic simulations—using the same kit you’re likely to encounter on the job.
What’s Covered
You’ll revisit and consolidate:
Patient assessment and vital signs
Managing trauma and medical emergencies
Airway management techniques
AED use, oxygen, and incident communication
Optional Add-Ons
For eligible learners with an operational need and appropriate clinical governance in place, we also offer optional modules during this course:

If you or your organisation require any of these, we’ll advise on the evidence needed at the time of booking.
