Terms and conditions

Entry Requirements

English Language Requirement

All courses are conducted and assessed in English, therefore we require all students to have an ability to understand and speak basic English. An inability to pass the assessments in English will result in a ‘not achieved’ result and the student will not receive a certificate of completion or the Unit Standards.

Learning Difficulties and Physical Requirements

Please contact our friendly team prior to the course commencement date if you believe you may have any learning difficulties, disabilities, injuries or illnesses which may affect your ability to complete assessments.

Attendance Requirements

In order to receive an ‘achieved’ mark for certification, you will need to have been present for all lessons and satisfactorily completed your assessments. If you are late more than 15 minutes, the Trainer may refuse entry as you will have missed part of the course. If this occurs, you will not be issued a refund, but may be rescheduled to another course at our discretion.

We recommend arriving 10 minutes prior to the start of class to meet the trainer, grab a hot drink and meet the other participants.

Assessments

All assessments are conducted by PracMed NZ Training Solutions Ltd (PracMed NZ) registered Trainers. If you are unable to complete all modules or assessments of the course, you may be permitted to resit the course within 3 months, which may attract fees for new course enrolment. Only two attempts at assessments are permitted.

What To Expect On The Day

Meals and Breaks

Lunch is not provided in our courses. Although most of our public venues are close to cafes, we recommend checking to see how far away or bringing your own food as the course will start promptly after the break. Lateness back from a break may cause a ‘not achieved’ result.

We offer complimentary tea and coffee for you to enjoy throughout the course.

Clothing Requirements

You will be required to move around freely to participate in the practical assessments, so comfortable clothing is recommended. Closed in shoes are required. It is also recommended to bring a light jacket.

For classes covering bleeding control, we recommend wearing dark clothing. While our fake blood is water-soluble, it is better to be safe than sorry.

What to Bring

We supply all the training materials you will need for the day.
