This twelve-hour course provides an in-depth, comprehensive refresher for those wishing to renew a First Aid at Work Qualification. Candidates must possess a valid First Aid at Work Qualification at the time of their taking this course. Those whose qualification has expired should instead undertake another 18-hour First Aid at Work course. Exceptions can sometimes be made to this rule depending on circumstances, but are subject to special conditions and must be discussed with the Oxford First Aid Training before booking.

With a minimum duration of twelve hours in the classroom, this course is typically held over two consecutive days. If requested, this course can be delivered over a number of consecutive weeks, though sessions must be two hours or longer, and the whole twelve hours must be completed within a seven-week period. Evening and weekend sessions are also available.

This course is assessed through oral questioning, a written assessment, and practical demonstrations.

Upon successful completion of the course, candidates will receive a certificate that is valid for three years, though annual refresher courses are highly advised.
