First aider training register

Record your first aiders, their training, where they work and when their training needs review.

For first-aider training and currency records — not injury, treatment or kit-inspection records.

Use this when you need to…

  • spot a training review before it becomes a coverage gap
  • see which site, team or shift a first aider normally supports
  • keep certificates and training evidence easy to find

What this register is for

Keep this register about training and workplace coverage. Do not add incident narratives, treatment details or medical histories. Limit it to the information people need to manage first-aid readiness.

What a useful entry looks like

FOLLOW-UPConfirm the refresher booking and review Warehouse A shift coverage.

Set review dates from training records and local requirements.

Examples of current nationally recognised first aid units include HLTAID009 Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation, HLTAID011 Provide First Aid, HLTAID012 Provide First Aid in an education and care setting and HLTAID013 Provide First Aid in remote or isolated site. Confirm the current unit status and details on the National Training Register; your register can include other qualifications where relevant.

Safe Work Australia says first aiders should hold a nationally recognised statement of attainment from an RTO and attend training regularly. Its model Code recommends annual CPR refresher training and renewing first aid qualifications every three years. Those are model recommendations, not a universal rule: confirm the requirements applying to your people and jurisdiction through Safe Work Australia’s guidance and your state or territory regulator.

Guidance checked 9 September 2026. Read the model Code and confirm its legal effect with your regulator. A recorded review date does not verify a person’s skills or availability.
