The Skillify Level 3 Award in Combined Emergency Paediatric First Aid (EPFA) & Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) is a dual-certification qualification designed to equip learners with the knowledge and practical skills needed to respond effectively to both workplace and paediatric emergencies. This Level 3 accredited course prepares participants to handle a wide range of emergencies affecting adults, children, and infants, including injuries, medical conditions, and sudden illness.

Ideal for childcare professionals, educators, healthcare workers, and workplace first aiders, this course aligns with UK Health & Safety Executive (HSE) standards and international best practices. Learners will gain the confidence and competence to save lives, reduce the severity of injuries, and maintain safety in diverse settings.

Delivered over approximately 12 guided learning hours, the course combines interactive instruction with practical scenarios. Participants will master CPR for adults, children, and infants, manage choking, bleeding, burns, fractures, and other common emergencies, and learn to assess and prioritize casualty care effectively. Legal responsibilities, safeguarding, and incident reporting are also integrated into the curriculum.

Upon successful completion, learners receive a Level 3 accredited certificate recognized by employers and regulatory authorities, enhancing both professional credentials and emergency preparedness.
