Welcome to the Carraig Safety PHECC Instructor Resource Page

Whether you are an experienced CFR, FAR or EFR instructor or looking to develop the skills to become one you will find resources here to assist you.

From the 1st of June 2018 the HSA will only recognise the First Aid Response (FAR) course as the appropriate course for First Aid in the workplace. All existing Occupational First Aid Instructors will need to attend upskilling with a PHECC Recognised Training Institution to transition to the FAR instructor standard in order to continue teaching First Aid in the workplace.

FAR instructors must be aligned to and work under the direction of a PHECC Recognised Training institution to deliver and certify the FAR course. Carraig Safety is currently accepting applications from suitably qualified instructors to join our External Faculty group. This will allow you to continue to provide First Aid training to your client.

By registering with Carraig Safety you will gain the advantage of working with a long established, and well respected training institution. We will provide you with all the necessary tools, facilities and resources to provide your clients with quality First Aid training. All courses will go through our rigorous quality system, be internally verified, externally authenticated and each instructor will have an onsite monitoring visit with full mentoring report (once a year).

There is NO registration fee to join our external faculty.

Carraig Safety will offer the following service to all external faculty trainers:

1. Affordable Certificates

2. Thorough IV Process as per PHECC QA Guidelines. 

3. Trainers will be provided with all course material and resources for the new FAR Programme including Lesson Plans, PowerPoint and assessment tools.

4. Assist Management of all Student Records

5. Monitoring and Mentoring as per QA Agreement 

6. Contract Agreement which protects both parties

To join Carraig Safety as an external faculty or should you require more information, you only need to contact support@carraigsafety.ie and our team would be delighted to assist you.
