First Aid Course Fees

First Aid Course Fees in the UAE: Individual and Company Pricing

The cost of a first aid course is usually a small line in an HR or HSE budget, but it is worth knowing what drives the price and what a good quote includes.

In short

The fee depends on the course (standard, pediatric, CPR-only or Highfield), whether you book individually or as a group, and whether we train on site. A proper quote includes the AHA card, trained instructors and enough equipment for everyone to practise.

What affects the price

  • Course type — CPR AED only is shorter than the full first aid course.
  • Group size — group and on-site bookings usually lower the cost per person.
  • Location — on-site delivery outside Abu Dhabi involves travel.
  • Qualification — an AHA Heartsaver card or a Highfield qualification — see Heartsaver vs Highfield.

What employers get for it

Trained first aiders reduce the harm from workplace injuries and illnesses while an ambulance is on its way, and a documented training record supports your health and safety obligations. See first aid training for companies.

Comparing quotes

  • Is the card from a recognised body, and verifiable?
  • Does everyone get hands-on practice with manikins, training AEDs and auto-injector trainers?
  • Is the course the full Heartsaver syllabus or a shortened version?
  • Are records and expiry dates provided?

Budgeting for kits and AEDs

Training works best alongside well-stocked kits and, where appropriate, an AED — see the first aid kit checklist.
