Find a Course near you

Concept

Outdoor First Aid in ScotlandEnquiries often wish for bespoke, specific outdoor first aid training for a particular outdoor activity and believe that a regulated qualification may be a little too prescriptive and not allow the emphasis and bias of the training to fully explore their needs.

Centres delivering ITC environment specific first aid apply existing ITC quality assurance procedures, resources and technical standards to produce tailored 2-day courses for a variety of activities.  

Recognition

This ITC first aid qualification will keep most National Governing Body Instructor awards valid.

Rationale

The first aid training requirements for various groups and national governing bodies does vary.  Recognising this, ITC First working with selected ITC Centres has developed a range of specific outdoor activity first aid qualifications, with content designed specifically for these environments, delivered by experienced professionals in these fields, e.g. first aid for parascenders, bicyclists, watersports.  In fact, with experience from across the world, gained over decades, ITC Centres can very probably deliver a qualification to cover the requirements of most remote environments or adventurous activities where people go to work or enjoy themselves.

ITC Centres deliver many of these first aid qualifications for groups at their own site.
