Training for Staff

In 2018, less than 10% of people who suffered out-of-hospital cardiac arrests survived. In response to this and numerous campaigns by health charities, new Government legislation has stated that in 2020, the teaching of First Aid and CPR will become mandatory in all UK schools as part of the national curriculum.

IVIC Training offers a range of First Aid training courses both for pupils and staff, as part of our mission to to work in partnership with our clients to inspire positive and responsible attitudes to health and safety, through informative and practical training sessions.
