Community AED Level 1 (VTQ)

Community AED units are becoming more widespread and they save lives. An AED is a computerised device designed to deliver a shock to help restore a normal heart rhythm following cardiac arrest.

Early defibrillation is critical. Having an AED locally can save valuable time by enabling fast action before emergency medical services arrive.

This video course covers the basics of CPR and AED use so learners can respond confidently in an emergency. No previous first aid experience is needed to complete this course.

The course is broken down into short videos and once you complete the course you can download your certificate.

This course supports community and workplace preparedness where an AED is available on site.

Gain the knowledge to use a community AED safely and effectively, with CPR basics that support confident emergency response.

Most people take AED training to support workplace responsibilities, community readiness or personal preparedness, particularly where an AED is installed in a public or shared space.

Whether it’s a professional requirement or personal qualification, this course allows you to train at your own pace, in your own time.

Some people that may benefit from this training include:

• Anyone who needs basic AED training
• Sports centres and leisure facilities
• Hotels and hospitality teams
• Public transport staff
• Care workers
• First aiders
• Shopping centre and retail staff

How It Works:

1. We sell access keycodes to ProTrainings courses up to 25% below the RRP. Order the number of access keycodes you need for each course like any other product from First Aid 4 Less, checking out and completing your order as you normally would. You will need to order one keycode per course, per person. Keycodes can only be redeemed once and only work for the course specified.
2. When you have completed your order, we will email you with:

• A link to the training portal
• Your keycode(s) for the courses ordered
• A PDF of what to do next

3. If necessary, you can then distribute keycode(s) to other learners as required, or use the keycode(s) yourself if the training is for you. Remember, keycodes can only be redeemed once and only work for the course specified.
4. Learners can then sign up using the link to the training portal, www.protrainings.uk/signup/firstaid4less. Each learner needs their own personal account so certificates and training records are correct. Redeem keycodes by entering a keycode in the ‘Key or Referral Code’ box as part of the sign up form. This will then make the relevant course for that keycode appear on the training dashboard when first logging in.
5. If you already have a login or have multiple courses you wish to appear in your training dashboard, you can redeem more keycodes easily by clicking the ‘Redeem Keycode’ link when logged in. Adding a new keycode in here will then add the relevant course to your training dashboard.
6. Once you have signed up on the training portal, all administration including progress tracking, certificates and access to materials is stored within the learner login.
7. All learners have ongoing access to training materials after completion of the course for several months, with the option of weekly refresher emails to support ongoing learning.
