EUIAS - Qualifications

First Aid at Work

EUIAS is the specialist awarding organisation for utilities. We understand utilities and our technical experts are available to support your delivery from day one.

We are delighted to offer two Ofqual-regulated qualifications that will not only equip learners with essential life-saving skills but also ensure their training is tailored to the demands of the utilities sector:

Level 3 Award in First Aid at Work (also known as FAW)
Level 3 Award in Emergency First Aid at Work (also known as EFAW)

You understand the critical importance of using a specialist awarding organisation, and EUIAS is uniquely positioned to deliver qualifications designed specifically for the utilities and power industries. With our power-specific amplification, you can tailor your training provision so that learners receive first-aid training within the context of power—something no other awarding organisation offers for these qualifications.

Our qualifications, regulated by Ofqual, provide assurance of quality and compliance with national standards, ensuring that your learners are gaining trusted and recognised credentials.

These qualifications’ assessment, quality assurance and delivery also comply with the First Aid Awarding Organisation Forum requirements.

Seamless Online Assessments for Your Learners
Our multiple-choice assessments, which are one of two assessment methods for these qualifications, are assessed and marked online, providing instant results and a detailed learner-specific performance report. This report highlights which assessment criteria your learners have achieved and where further development may be needed, allowing you to offer focused feedback and support.
