ITC First Aid is an Awarding Body with the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (QCA) in England and Wales and Scottish Qualification Authority (SQA) in Scotland. The Academy is an approved Provider for ITC First Aid, this allows The Academy to deliver a range of nationally accredited first aid courses. ITC (Immediate Temporary Care) has been approved and registered with the HSE since the early 1990's. ITC certificates the First Aid Academy training courses and supports the rigorous monitoring of our trainers to enable us to work to the highest standards. As the educational sector is changing between now and late 2010, the National Qualification Framework (NQF) is ending and the Qualification Credit Framework (QCF) is coming online. Over the next few months ITC First Aid is working toward Awarding Organisation status which will allow First Aid Academy, as one of its approved providers, to deliver accredited courses from the new QCF in the future in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

ITC First Aid has been responsible for entering the new Emergency First Aid at Work qualification onto the NQF, this follows the work they have already done to develop and load the Sports First Aid and Outdoor First Aid courses onto the framework. Over the next couple of months ITC will be completing the development of a Paediatric First Aid course for the NQF.

First Aid Academy works with the ITC trainer network to support the development of new first aid trainers, running the first aid trainers course.
