Due to changes from HQ following a review of First Aid Training, we are now required to validate ALL external first aid qualifications. This validation must be done by the County First Response Trainer Paul Green.
You may need to do some additional training, links to online modules are below and they don’t take long to complete. Please look through the below to see what requirements are need for the type of external first aid training you have received.
You may need to do a short face to face CPR assessment.
Once this is all complete – Paul Green can validate your first aid training.
External courses:
Doctors / Nurses / Ambulance crews
We need you to have a copy of your certificate / registration and evidence of recent CPR training.
ADULT CPR COURSES:
Police officers
Need evidence of in date Module 1 and module 2 of the college of policing first aid training.

If evidence (a certificate or email from the instructor) can be provided that child AND adult CPR is covered on their course – this will mean you do not need to do a CPR assessment.
IN ALL CASES….
The certificates (for the course you have done PLUS the Hampshire online learning additional modules) need to be uploaded into “My Qualifications” on the new scout system by the member, then you need to notify Paul Green paul.green@glswscouts.org.uk
Please make sure you also include your member number and certificates so Paul can validate it.
Paul will respond to you with the validation – You are then responsible for notifying Alison Edwards so she can update the system. alison.edwards@local.gov.uk
