First Aid

As you know accidents and injuries are all too common in our industry, so having current first aid skills is essential.  The CFMEU run courses in both occupational and advanced first aid as well as annual refreshers.  Don’t let your first aid tickets lapse as you never know when you might need them.

For more specific information about the training including codes and titles of units of competency, nominal hours and timeframes, download the Course Directory. You can also download our Dare to Learn Course Pathways Guide; this provides suggested pathways for careers in construction.
