THE FIRST AID INDUSTRY BODY (QUALITY ASSURANCE) REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS

Every potential registering Training Provider will have a Full Assessment meeting with FAIB (either face to face or by telephone) regarding the background of the Training Provider, the Trainer(s)/Assessor(s) and the Quality Assurance information needed to register with FAIB.

Once this has been completed FAIB will then require the Training Provider to send in all the information (as listed in the Trainer/Assessor and Quality Assurance section below and highlighted in red) as well as confirmation that you cover ALL the elements of Assessment for each FAIB qualification you intend to use and HOW it is achieved.

You are also required to keep a record of all the assessments conducted against each outcome should they ever be legally required. (FAIB may ask for this information at any time during your Approval Period).
