First Response blended learning
The blended learning model consists of two parts
(10A) - theoretical learning
2.5-hour e-learning
a 3-hour trainer led, online session
(10B) - practical learning
a short (around 45 minutes), face to face session to demonstrate the recovery position and CPR
You need to complete all elements of the First Response blended model to be credited for First Response. If you cannot locate a 3-hour trainer led, online session and a practical learning session to book onto, you will need to complete your learning by attending an in person course.
Things to remember:
Just must...
complete the eLearning first
complete the online session second
complete the practical assessment last

The e-learning needs to be completed before you book your 3-hour trainer led session and can be accessed via My Learning, by logging into your profile at scouts.org.uk Please note, you will need to enrol yourself on e-learning to be able to complete it.
