Our prices are stated in New Zealand dollars and exclude GST.
We may change our prices from time to time.
We will tell you about our charges for any service or training before we start providing that service.
At any time, you may be required to:
● Provide satisfactory evidence that you will be able to pay the charges for our services
● Arrange a ‘fair’ bond, guarantee or other security
Most of our services require that you either pre-pay it via our Website or open an account with us, and then we will invoice you each month with a certified GST invoice for the amount of the actual use.
The invoice which we send you will be based on our records. If you think there has been a mistake on your invoice, please contact the numbers shown on your invoice, and we will investigate the matter for you.
We accept credit card (Visa and Master card ONLY) payments for most of our services.
If you do not pay an invoice by the due date for payment:
● You may be charged interest on the unpaid amount from that date until you pay it; the interest rate is fixed at 27% PA and will be charged on unpaid amounts daily
● You may be required to pay any costs that are incurred by anyone (including debt recovery agents) in recovering the money you owe or in exercising any other rights, including commissions and the legal costs of a solicitor
● We may withhold, suspend, restrict or terminate any service we have provided you
We may allocate identification codes, usernames and passwords for your use depending on which product or service you want. We may change any code or username but will allocate you a new code and/or username. We will always give you as much advance notice as we reasonably can before we make any changes.
You are responsible for keeping confidential your account number, identification code or codes, username and passwords used by or allocated to you. We may assume that you authorise any request or instruction we receive if it is received along with suitable verification (for example, your account number, identification code, username or password).
Where we do not meet our responsibilities to you, we will make a refund limited to an amount equal to your charge.
A refund is not available where we did not meet our responsibilities to you because we were not given correct information, through other causes beyond our reasonable control, or where we have withheld, suspended, restricted or terminated our service.
The Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 contains consumer safeguards which may apply to services we provide for you. Any rights you may have under that Act apply in addition to the rights set out above.
We have set out your rights to claim compensation from us. We now exclude all other liability we may have to you. This exclusion applies (but is not limited to) for the benefit of the following people:
● First Aid Training Company Ltd.

● All companies directly or indirectly owned, partly owned or controlled by any of the people listed above

None of these people is liable to you or has to pay you for anything else caused by or resulting from anything any of them does or does not do or delays in doing, whether or not it is contemplated or authorised by any agreement you have with us. This exclusion applies:
● Whatever you are claiming for (including loss of profits or business)
● However, liability arises or might arise if it were not for this clause
This exclusion does not prevent you from getting a court order requiring us to do anything we have agreed to do for you and does not limit any rights you may have under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993.
We have set out your rights to claim compensation from us and excluded all other liability we or any of the people listed above may have to you. If we or any of the people listed above are ever liable to you and, for any reason, cannot rely on the exclusion above, then this clause applies.
Where this clause applies, the maximum combined amount we and all the other people listed above will have to pay you and anyone else who uses the products or services we provide we provide for you (together) is:
● $1.50 for any event or any series of related events
● A total of $4.50 in any twelve-month period
Where you do not meet your responsibilities to us, you must pay any reasonable expenses we incur in collecting any money you owe us or in exercising any of our other legal rights.
We recommend you talk to your insurer about arranging suitable cover for risks of loss or liability arising from these terms.
In any relationship you have with us, we may collect information about you. The information may be obtained from you and others or generated within the equipment used to provide our services when you or anyone else uses our products or services. You may decide not to provide any of the information any of us seeks from you. However, if you do not provide it, we may not be able to provide services to you.
You may ask to see information any of us holds about you, and we will provide it to you as long as we can readily retrieve it, and you may ask for any wrong details and ask for them to be corrected.
We may hold the information and share it with employees, contractors, credit reference agencies and collection agencies. This enables us to:
● Provide services to you and others
● Send you bills and recover the money you owe
● Keep you informed of updated or new services available to you from other people and us
● Exercise any lawful right any of us has.
We may share with network operators any information required to enable you to use any of our products or services; this does not include your name and address.
We may disclose information about you to law enforcement authorities (such as the Police or the Department of Internal Affairs) if we think it is necessary, for example, to help maintain the law.
We may have intellectual property rights in the products or services we provide to you, including, for example, copyright, trademark and design rights. We retain all our rights when we provide a product or service to you.
We may have our approved agent or representative perform and benefit from all or any part of our side of any agreement you may have with us.
You may transfer and have someone else perform all or any part of your side of any agreement you have with us so long as you get our written approval first. We may transfer all or any part of our side of any agreement you have with us to someone else. We will tell you if we do this.
Every person named as a customer in any agreement with us must meet all the customers’ responsibilities under that agreement.
Bills or other notices will be sent to the last physical or electronic address you gave us. We, our agents or representatives, and anyone to whom we have assigned the amounts you owe us can assume any bill or notice sent by physical post has been delivered five days after it has been posted and any bill or notice sent electronically has been delivered on sending unless we receive a ‘failed to deliver’ message. Please advise us promptly of any changes to your physical or electronic addresses.
We must meet all our responsibilities to you under every agreement we have with you. You must meet all your responsibilities to us under every agreement you have with us.
Each term of every agreement you have with us is separately binding. If, for any reason, we, you or any of the people listed in clause 15 cannot rely on any term, all other terms remain binding.
All our products and services are provided under New Zealand Law. You may take action against us only in a New Zealand court.
The Sports First Aid course is tailored for players, parents, teachers, coaches, and first aiders responsible for athlete care. It focuses on providing immediate care and managing injuries in a sports environment, ensuring that athletes receive timely assistance during critical situations. It’s an excellent team-building or coach-development activity.
The Pharmacist CPR course is designed explicitly for pharmacists who need to refresh their CPR skills every three years, as the Pharmacy Council’s first aid policy requires. It will cover all the necessary skills to manage a life-threatening emergency.
This 4-hour advanced resuscitation (ACLS) course is ideal for healthcare professionals and non-clinical staff. The course covers basic principles of managing cardiac arrest and is CORE Immediate Adult equivalent (previously known as level 4 resuscitation course or CPR level 4/5).
The Vaccinator CPR course is designed explicitly for authorised and pharmacist vaccinators and will cover all required topics and the necessary skills to manage a life-threatening emergency.
This basic course is great for anyone needing fundamental First Aid knowledge and skills and those not requiring workplace compliant first aid training. It is also a perfect first aid course for community groups, clubs, or churches.
The School First Aid course applies explicitly to teachers, school support staff, and caregivers. It focuses on providing emergency first aid to children under 18 within the school environment or care setting. It is a great team bonding exercise or a teachers-only day activity.
First aid certificates must be renewed every two years. This first aid refresher (revalidation) course brings your knowledge and first aid skills back up to speed. Your first aid certificate must be current or within 3 months of its expiry date to be eligible for renewal.
This course is an 8-hour essential first aid ‘core programme’ for workplace first aid. Work Safe, or first aid level 1, is perfect for most low and medium-risk workplaces and will prepare your team to respond to common emergencies.
This course is a 12-hour comprehensive first aid programme, also known as First Aid Level 2. Extended first aid is ideal for moderate to high-risk workplaces and will cover all relevant topics and equip your team with required first aid skills.
If you need private first aid training, we can set up a suitable in-house group first aid course at your workplace or another convenient location. We also offer the most competitive rates in the industry when comparing courses with other accredited training providers.
