Online Learning
FirstAidPro’s zoom training provides a fully online learning experience – ideal for people in the city working with covid regulations AND for people in remote locations. The blended format course provides a healthy mix of self-paced online learning combined with a four-hour interactive Zoom training session, with plenty of time for asking questions and benefiting from our trainers’ many years experience in first aid.
Before taking part in the Zoom course, participants must work through the online learning material available on their student portal and complete the online pre-quiz and learning assessment. This information will be assumed knowledge during your Zoom session, so you won’t be admitted to the Zoom session unless your assessments are marked complete on the system.
The time taken for this online learning can vary depending on the student’s prior knowledge and working speed, but it’s a good idea to set aside at least half a day to work through the material.
Course Times
We run Zoom training sessions at various times throughout the week, including some sessions on weekends. To find times for specific courses, check our our course calendar, or get in touch with us. For groups and corporate bookings, we may even be able to arrange a Zoom training session at a time suited to you.
USI Requirements
To undertake any form of nationally recognised training in Australia, you’ll need a valid USI number (or “Unique Student Identifier”). A USI is a unique identification number associated with you that is used to track what registered training you’ve undertaken within Australia – rather like a tax file number specifically for training purposes. They’ve been mandatory since 2015 when undertaking formal study. Fortunately, they’re fairly easy to obtain – simply head to the USI website to get the process started.
