Home Study Scheme Launched for Paediatric First Aid Training
A new home study initiative has been set up by Train Aid Ltd tin order to ease the strain on their client's busy schedules.
SURREY, ENGLAND, September 26, 2012
Train Aid Ltd has introduced a home study scheme for their open paediatric first aid courses. The new scheme applied to the London based open courses at the Quakers meeting house and the Highgate Road Chapel. This new concept will hopefully ease the strain on candidates who work full time during the week, as there will now only be a requirement to attend one day of the training. The other day is completed through an innovative work pack from the comfort of their own homes.Work packs are easy to understand, which enable users to research theoretical topics, and then test themselves on them. Puzzles, pictures and multiple choice exams combine to test if a candidate has grasped a particular topic. The packs are then brought along to the practical day of the course where the instructor can make sure everything is in place, and field any questions. Paediatric first aid training coordinator Heather Bennett who designed the pack was on hand to say a little more:
"The concept behind the work packs was to replace the lectures usually held on day one of the training. For example of you take the sample topic of 'heart attack', The learner reads up on the topic instead of having a lecture, and can then test themselves through a memory game. The material is still learnt in the same way, but there is no need to travel to a training centre".
Candidates can benefit from this new system as they can now take as much time to complete day one of the course in the comfort of their own homes. However this can be extended to anywhere, which means people can fill out their work packs on the commute to work or even on a lunch break. It also means that second day of the paediatric first aid courses focuses solely on learning practical skills, which ultimately often prove to be the real life saver.
Train Aid Ltd deliver both affordable and enjoyable training courses that place a strong emphasis on teaching practical skills that are relevant to real life.
