PHECC First Aid Responder (FAR) Instructor Training Course Cork

PHECC First Aid Responder Instructor Training Co Cork Ireland

On June 1, 2018, the Pre-Hospital Emergency Care Council (PHECC) officially assumed responsibility for delivering the First Aid Responder (FAR) course as the national standard for occupational first aid, taking over from the Occupational First Aid Assessment Agent (OFAAA/QQI).

This new educational standard was welcomed by both instructors and students. In the earlier OFAAA / QQI system, the idea of being evaluated by an external instructor led to considerable anxiety among students, to say the least.

To become a First Aid Responder Instructor in Ireland today, it is crucial to meet certain criteria. Each prospective First Aid Responder student instructor must demonstrate proficiency in the PHECC First Aid Responder level standard they plan to teach, such as CFR or FAR.

To engage in this First Aid Responder Instructor Training in Ireland a student must firstly:

1. Compete the First Aid Responder (FAR) Provider ( Three Day Training )

2. Compete the First Aid Responder (FAR) Instructor ( Two Day Training )

You do not need to be a Nurse or Paramedic etc to be able to teach the PHECC First Aid Response Course. Just have a in date First Aid Response provider certificate.

We offer instructor training in University College Cork and prepare students for teaching in this demanding industry. Contact us for more information.
