First Aid Training
At Aquatic Adventures we offer First Aid courses from the Emergency First Response syllabus, plus Nationally Recognised Training through our sister company, Active First Aid Training.
Emergency First Response
Emergency First Response (EFR) is the international First Aid partner of PADI. EFR training focuses on building confidence in lay rescuers and increasing their willingness to respond when faced with a medical emergency. Course participants learn simple to follow steps for emergency care and practice applying skills in a non-stressful learning environment.
Nationally Recognised Training
For those seeking Nationally Recognised First Aid training that also fulfils the requirements for workplace first aid training, based upon the approved training practices of the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC), we have a sister company, Active First Aid Training, who offer these programs.
All of our EFR courses can be paired with their Nationally Recognised equivalents and taught simultaneously, granting you both the international and the ARC recognised training & qualifications.

PLEASE NOTE - all prices are based upon a minimum of 4 people participating in the course. We will always endeavour to fill our courses, however in the event that a course is below minimum numbers, for it to go ahead on a given date then the cost would need to go up, to cover Instructor wages. We will always inform all students in advance if this might happen and offer the opportunity to switch course dates if they do not wish to pay the extra cost.
