First Aid Courses Northern Ireland: Accredited Training & Certification

The Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1982 mandate that all employers must provide adequate and appropriate first aid provision. First Aid Courses Northern Ireland businesses choose must be certified and relevant to their workplace risk assessment.

Fire Safety Training NI delivers a complete range of professional, accredited first aid courses designed to equip your staff with vital, life-saving skills. All our training is fully certified by leading bodies, including the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health (CIEH) and the Chartered Institute of Personal Development (CIPD), ensuring your certification is recognised and fully compliant with HSENI regulations.
