We've introduced a new pricing system for our Group First Aid Courses for 2012 which we feel is a much fairer way of charging than the traditional method of paying for a course - regardless of the number of participants.  What's more, it works out cheaper in almost every situation!

Most companies will set out a fee based on a full course of say 10 or 12 candidates; this is fine if you have that many candidates and will usually work out quite economically.  As long as you know that there are no 'hidden' extras like travel expenses and VAT to be added at invoice time, you will most likely get a reasonable deal.  However, what happens if you don't have quite enough candidates for a full course, or some of them don't turn up on the day, or call in sick?

Well, normally in that instance you will be left to pay the full price for the course anyway, effectively paying for empty places.  Our new system avoids this situation entirely.  What we have done is split the training cost from that of the candidates.  In this way you'll pay for the trainer or trainers and then a set amount per candidate that registers at the start of the course.  You'll still enjoy the benefits of the economical group course, but only pay for the candidates that arrive on the day.  So a course with 9 candidates will cost less than one with 10, 11, or 12.  To our minds, that is true value for money!

Given the continuing tough economic conditions we are faced with this year, we have also decided not to add any travel costs for trainers operating within Scotland in 2012 and we promise that the price we quote you will be the price you are charged, taking into account how many registrants there are.  No hidden extras!  What will be included how ever is the same great package of inspiring training, plentiful equipment, useful manuals and a fun, unforgetable course!
