The life-saving skills awareness session

A short introduction of about 2 hours, open to everyone. It covers the essentials for a life-threatening emergency: calling for help, protecting, stopping bleeding, CPR and using a defibrillator. It does not lead to a first aid certificate.

PSC1 (civic prevention and first aid, level 1)

The reference first aid course for the general public in France, overseen by the Ministry of the Interior and delivered by approved organisations. It lasts about 7 hours and leads to a civil protection citizen certificate. No refresher is mandatory, but regular updates are recommended.

SST (Workplace First Aider)

The course designed for the workplace, following the INRS framework. It lasts 14 hours and adds occupational risk prevention to first aid. The certificate is valid for 24 months and is renewed through a 7-hour MAC SST. A valid SST certificate is recognised as equivalent to the PSC1.

How to choose?

  • For your employees and employer obligations: SST training.
  • For an individual or an association: the PSC1.
  • To train a team quickly, at a seminar or safety day: the 3-hour introductory first aid course.
