Applicants must have sufficient reading, writing, verbal communication and numeracy skills in English to enable them to safely administer CPR in the workplace. Refer to the descriptions below.

  • Read and apply basic first aid information such as DRSABCD charts
  • Whilst good writing skills can make completing this course easier, it is not necessary to be able to write in order to enrol
  • A basic understanding of timing so that compressions and breaths can be delivered properly whilst administering CPR
  • Speak clearly and unambiguously in English
  • Explain, describe and verify needs and issues

Verbal assessments may be conducted for the CPR multiple-choice test (please refer to the Additional Course Information section below).

If a trainee is concerned that they may not have the capabilities described above, please contact WAM Training on 1800 143 343 for advice.

Once competence is achieved, trainees will receive a CPR Courses Statement of Attainment (Nationally Accredited).

  • Trainees will be assessed using a multiple-choice test and a practical assessment involving the demonstration of CPR techniques
