First Aid training
FirstAidPro Canberra’s HLTAID014 Provide Advanced First Aid course is practical, hands-on, and thoroughly interactive. Our trainers have years of real-world experience and are on hand to provide assistance during the course. We work hard to provide a fully supportive training experience where each participant has an opportunity to practice skills and get the help they need. Students are free to ask questions throughout the course, meaning they can benefit from our trainer’s considerable expertise as they learn and practice their skills.
Our Advanced First Aid training covers the full content of the more basic Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation and Provide First Aid courses, but also adds additional content. These extra topics include things like crushing injuries, life-threatening blood loss, ear and abdominal injuries and providing first aid to the elderly.

HLTAID014 is the new HLTAID006
(Includes HLTAID009 Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation), HLTAID010 Provide basic emergency life support, & HLTAID011 Provide First Aid
The HLTAID014 Provide Advanced First Aid course (previously known as HLTAID006) is one of the most complete and comprehensive first aid qualifications currently on the Australian market. The course covers an extensive range of accidents, illnesses and medical conditions, including many not covered in standard first aid.
The course is suitable for medical professionals and members of the general public – the Advanced title refers to how much is covered by the course – not how hard it is to understand.
- No unnecessary content – Don't sit through hours of introductory, irrelevant or repetitive information. All our courses teach practical, real-world skills which are recognised and used by industry professionals and nothing else. No fluff, no filler content, no time wasted.
- Faster certificate issue – We have a dedicated team of customer service professionals who take care of the administrative side of things, including certificate generation and issue. It means we can get certificates out to students much faster than other providers.
- Industry approved and certified – Our first aid courses are industry approved and certified and meet occupational licencing requirements for a number of industry bodies including the Australian College of Nursing (ACN) and the Australian Children's Education and Care Quality Authority (ACECQA).
