First Response Trainer
Image
Our First Response Trainers deliver the First Response course (first aid training at Scouts) to volunteers.
Tasks:
- Deliver First Response training to volunteers (online or in person), following the First Response syllabus and instructions.
- Confirm learners have paid attention and successfully completed the course.
- Support volunteers who’ve previously completed external first aid training on parts of the syllabus they didn’t cover before.
- Keep up to date on first aid practices and Scouts training requirements.
- Make sure Scouts first aid training is up to local and national standards.
Who can have this accreditation:
Any full member who:
- Holds a current first aid qualification provided by a regulated body (this should confirm their attendance at a minimum 16 hours first aid course). Have completed any additional learning to meet the Scouts first aid syllabus
- Holds a recognised training / teaching qualification (level 3 award or above) or has the Scouts Presenting learning credited in my Learning
Please note, volunteers can’t be counted as a First Response Trainer for courses until they hold the accreditation. Before that, they can only help with first aid delivery, alongside accredited trainers.
