About Us
About AWE Training
Professional first aid and emergency response training for workplaces, organisations and individuals in Portsmouth, Hampshire and across the UK.
Not all first aid training is the same
At AWE Training, all certificates issued from our first aid courses are Ofqual and FAA-regulated. This means your qualification is nationally recognised, fully compliant, and trusted by employers and industries across the UK.
With so many training providers offering non-regulated courses, it is important to know exactly what you are getting. Regulated training ensures high standards, certificates that are widely accepted, and training that genuinely prepares you to act in a real emergency.
Our instructors all come from medical backgrounds, bringing real-world experience into every course, so you don’t just pass — you leave confident, competent, and ready to save a life.
Regulated Qualifications You Can Trust
Our regulated first aid qualifications are delivered through First Aid Awards, an awarding organisation regulated by Ofqual and SQA Accreditation. FAA qualifications sit within the relevant regulated qualification frameworks and are recognised by employers across the UK.
