The course is suitable for civil construction workers, supervisors, safety personnel and other workers who may be required to provide first aid or CPR in the workplace. It is also suitable for anyone wanting to develop practical emergency response skills and be better prepared to assist in an emergency.

Here’s What You’ll Learn In This Course:

The HLTAID009 – Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and HLTAID011 – Provide First Aid courses are designed to equip participants with the practical skills, knowledge and confidence to respond effectively to medical emergencies and provide immediate assistance until professional medical help arrives. Training is delivered in line with current Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) guidelines.

Participants will learn how to recognise and respond to an emergency, perform CPR on adults, children and infants, and safely use an automated external defibrillator (AED). The First Aid component also covers the management of common workplace injuries and medical conditions, including cuts, burns, fractures, sprains, crush injuries, bleeding, shock, asthma, anaphylaxis, seizures, cardiac emergencies and heat-related illness.

The course also covers casualty assessment, infection control, emergency response procedures, legal responsibilities, incident reporting and maintaining safety while providing first aid.

Training includes both theoretical and practical components, with participants completing hands-on activities and realistic workplace scenarios to develop the confidence and capability to respond appropriately in an emergency.

Upon successful completion, participants may receive nationally recognised Statements of Attainment for HLTAID009 – Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and HLTAID011 – Provide First Aid, depending on the training completed. CPR skills are generally recommended to be refreshed annually, while First Aid training is commonly renewed every three years in accordance with workplace and industry requirements.

These courses are suitable for workers, supervisors, safety personnel, designated first aiders and anyone who may be required to provide CPR or first aid in the workplace. They are particularly valuable in civil construction, roadworks, infrastructure and other high-risk work environments where a quick and effective emergency response is essential.

Achievements

Upon successful completion of this course, participants will receive nationally recognised Statements of Attainment for:

HLTAID009 – Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
HLTAID011 – Provide First Aid

First Aid certification is generally renewed every three years, while CPR training is recommended to be refreshed annually in line with Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) guidelines and workplace requirements.

These qualifications support workplace first aid and emergency response requirements and equip participants with the skills and confidence to respond quickly and effectively to injuries, medical emergencies and cardiac incidents.

The training is suitable for workers, supervisors, safety personnel and designated first aiders across civil construction environments, including roadworks, earthworks and infrastructure projects, where maintaining a safe workplace and responding appropriately to emergencies is essential.

 

To enrol in this course, you must:

✔ Be at least 18 years old

✔ Provide basic English language, literacy, and numeracy (LLN) skills sufficient to read and understand first aid guidelines, complete assessments, and communicate effectively in emergencies.

✔ Bring two forms of identification, such as a driver’s license and Medicare card (passport or student ID card also accepted).

There are no formal education requirements.

The HLTAID011 – Provide First Aid and HLTAID009 – Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation course is delivered entirely face-to-face over one full day, combining classroom-based learning with practical, hands-on training.

  • Classroom Theory:
    Participants will learn essential first aid knowledge, including legal requirements, infection control, recognising and assessing emergencies, and understanding the principles of first aid response.
  • Practical Training:
    The practical component focuses on developing hands-on skills through realistic scenarios. Participants will:

    • Perform CPR on adults and infants.
    • Use an AED (defibrillator).
    • Manage injuries such as bleeding, burns, fractures, and sprains.
    • Respond to medical emergencies such as asthma, anaphylaxis, and cardiac arrest.
    • Complete incident reporting and apply safe manual handling techniques.
  • Assessment:
    Assessment involves both a written theory test and practical demonstrations of first aid and CPR skills under the supervision of a certified trainer.

This structure ensures participants leave with the confidence and ability to provide effective first aid and CPR in real-world emergency situations.

Upon successful completion of all theory and practical assessments, participants will be issued with a nationally recognised Statement of Attainment.

Participants will also receive a First Aid and CPR card, providing convenient proof of competency for civil construction site access and compliance requirements.

This certification is issued by Step123 and is valid for three (3) years for first aid. CPR (HLTAID009) is recommended to be renewed annually in line with Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) guidelines and civil construction safety standards.

The qualification meets Work Health and Safety (WHS) requirements for designated first aiders on civil construction sites and is recognised across all Australian states and territories, supporting compliance on projects such as roadworks, earthworks, and infrastructure developments.
