Trainer guiding a learner through CPR on a manikin

How the course runs

  • Short online pre-course learning to complete before the day
  • A practical session with a qualified trainer and assessor
  • CPR on adult and infant manikins, AED practice and real-world scenarios
  • Statement of Attainment issued by the delivering RTO once you are assessed competent

Before you book

  • You’ll need a Unique Student Identifier (USI) — create one free at usi.gov.au
  • CPR must be performed on the floor for at least two minutes, so you’ll need to be able to kneel
  • Bring photo ID on the day
  • Talk to us beforehand if you need any adjustments or support

Who delivers this training? Work Ready Skills is not a Registered Training Organisation (RTO). Nationally recognised units are delivered and assessed under a third-party arrangement with a partner RTO, which issues your Statement of Attainment.
