2 Day RYA First Aid course
A 2 day RYA First Aid course.
It's the same RYA First Aid course and certificate however it's spread over 2 days!
What's different then?
Using the RYA First Aid course syllabus we extend it over 2 days and add some more content to the subjects, we also create scenarios so that candidates can really get to grips dealing with and understanding what to do when an accident or illness strikes.
We already provide the 2 Day Rescue Emergency Care (REC) 'Outdoor' First Aid courses as a number of other National Governing Bodies of Sport recognise that their Instructors/Coaches complete a 2 day minimum 'Outdoor' First Aid course - ie the British Canoe Union, Mountain Leader Training Board, British Association of Ski Instructors - so, we blend the RYA First Aid course in with the REC 2 Day Outdoor First Aid course.
