Annual Refresher A person’s competence will decline over time if skills they have been taught are not used regularly. In light of this the HSE strongly recommends that first aiders attend a refresher session once every year during the three year period. This three-hour course provides first aiders with an opportunity to practice and update their skills at any time while their first aid certificate is valid. It does not extend the period the original certificate is valid for but it helps to combat first aid skills fade. Course duration 3 hours The first Annual Refresher training is FREE to those who gained the First Aid at Work qualification through St John Ambulance (NI) and HALF PRICE to those who gained the Emergency First Aid at Work qualification through St John Ambulance (NI).
