Self-presenting means that an experienced First Aid Trainer Assessor can go straight to the qualification assessment without completing a course, provided they meet certain criteria and can demonstrate the required practical and theoretical competence.
Why Choose to Self-Present?
Flexibility: Skip unnecessary training and proceed directly to assessment if you already meet the required standard.
Efficiency: Minimise time away from your Approved Training Centre/Provider (ATC/P).
Cost Savings: Reduce expenses by avoiding duplicate training.
Avoid Duplication: Eliminate repeat learning.
Prerequisites to Self-Present:
To ensure quality and compliance, you must meet the following requirements to be able to self-present:
- Evidence of teaching a regulated FAW qualification (FAW integrated with NPLQ is acceptable) within three months of the proposed assessment date.
- Valid First Aid at Work qualification.
- Evidence of a satisfactory IQA observation of a First Aid qualification (covering delivery and assessment) within 12 months of the proposed assessment date.

- Login to your RLSS UK Account.
