ProTrainings introduced blended Paediatric First Aid training courses in 2009, which have since emerged as the premier option for blended training. By completing half of your Paediatric First Aid course online, you save a full day in the classroom while earning the same qualification. You can begin immediately, and we have a network of over 1500 instructors nationwide to facilitate your practical session.
This course provides an excellent solution for individuals who are unable to commit to a two-day classroom-only course due to time constraints. Upon successful completion of both the online and classroom components, you will receive a ProTrainings wall certificate and a classroom certificate.
