First Aid and Aged Care Certification
|
First Aid Courses & Training (FACT), began in 2012 when Ms Elsa van den Heever created her own business delivering first aid training in the Mackay and Coal Fields region. In 2014 the original training business partnered with other RTO’s, and local businesses, and successfully delivered training on larger scale projects. The business now delivers Certificates II, Cert III, Cert IV and single competency certificates.
The business is currently registered as First Aid Courses & Training Pty Ltd, Australian Company Number (ACN) 621 726 332. As part of its growth and altered focus to meet the ever growing health care needs of our community, FACT is planning on further developing existing partnerships with other small businesses in Mackay. We understand the importance of having qualified carers and want to mentor and assist students in reaching their goals and succeeding in achieving good work positions. We pride ourselves on managing to receive a high completion rate and helping candidates secure positions in our local workforce, and have statistics to show we have a 96% success rate with students retention and their completion of enrolled courses and in finding employment in the community. We have good industry relationships in the Aged Care and Disability and Community sector. We also work closely with local charities and employment agencies, to procure new clients – this often means re-skilling and training to meet industry needs and fill job vacancies. Others include the mining sector, which has just started growing, the building industry and individuals looking at up skilling. Our business is the only one offering skill set training for Medication Administration and Manual Handling – essential skills in the health care industry. Our trainers travel to deliver these courses. |
