Who it's for
Who AED training is for
This course is for any team with an AED on site — or thinking of getting one. A defibrillator is only as useful as the people ready to grab it, and speed and confidence in those first minutes make the difference. This is training, not equipment sales.
Workplaces with an AED
Offices, factories and sites that have installed a defibrillator and want their people ready to use it.
Sports clubs and gyms
Where sudden cardiac events during exercise are a real risk.
Schools and public venues
Public-facing sites that want confident responders on hand.
Retail and hospitality teams
Busy, public premises where every second counts.
What it covers

The chain of survival
Effective chest compressions and CPR
Safe, confident AED use
Pad placement and safety
Using an AED alongside CPR
Calling for help and handover
Staying safe at the scene
Delegates receive a FAIB-accredited certificate valid for three years. For broader first-aid cover beyond cardiac emergencies, look at Emergency First Aid at Work or First Aid at Work.
How it works
CPR and an AED, together
When someone is in cardiac arrest, survival drops with every minute that passes without CPR and defibrillation. The chain of survival is simple: call for help, start CPR, use an AED as soon as one arrives, and hand over to the ambulance service. A modern AED talks you through it — but training builds the speed and calm to act without hesitating.
We can run the session on your own defibrillator model so your team practises on the exact device they will reach for. You will learn safe pad placement, how to keep good compressions going, and how CPR and the AED work together rather than one instead of the other.
Onsite delivery
Hands-on at your premises
Practise on your own device, in your own building.

FAQ
Defibrillator training questions
Do you need training to use a defibrillator?
A modern AED gives clear spoken instructions, so an untrained person can use one in an emergency. But training builds the speed, confidence and CPR quality that genuinely improve the odds — which is why we recommend it for anyone with an AED on site.
What is covered in AED training?
Recognising cardiac arrest, the chain of survival, effective CPR, safe and confident AED use, pad placement, and how to use a defibrillator alongside chest compressions.
How long does AED / defibrillator training take?
Around half a day. That is enough time for everyone to practise CPR and AED use hands-on until it feels natural, without taking a full day out of the diary.
Can we train on our own defibrillator?
Yes. Where you have your own AED, we can run the session on that exact model so your team practises on the device they will actually reach for.
Do you deliver AED training onsite?
Yes. The trainer arrives with manikins and a training defibrillator — or uses your own unit — so the whole team gets hands-on turns without leaving the building.
