Apprenticeship Trades
Any apprenticeship trade training requiring first aid training to complete their apprenticeship will need to complete the minimum of NZQA Unit Standard 6401 & 6402 (equivalent 26551 & 26552) – which is our Elementary First Aid Level 2 Certificate. We believe at Links Training that all high risk workplaces should also complete unit standard 6400, to manage an emergency situation before emergency services arrive, and so should complete our Advanced First Aid level 3 Certificate.
