The Training Centre

Professional first aid and rescue training courses throughout the UK...

The Training Centre was established to provide professional first aid, emergency rescue and beach lifeguard training courses for private individuals, company employees and service personnel from Cornwall and across the UK.

Based in Newquay, Cornwall, The Training Centre offers a wide range of courses in emergency rescue and first aid care. We do operate courses at our base at Lusty Glaze Beach but we also regularly conduct courses at external sites and business premises throughout the South West and beyond. In fact, we can organise first aid or rescue training courses anywhere in the UK.

First aid training courses are available at all levels from Basic Life Support right through to Spinal Management. Emergency rescue training courses include Cliff Rescue, Confined Space Rescue and Emergency Medical Rescue at Heights. The centre is also a nationally renowned provider of beach lifeguard training courses, which can now be combined with BSA surf instructor or surf coach training courses.

All our courses are strictly regulated and certified to professional standards. We also work with several medical rescue organisations to ensure our courses are always up-to-date with the latest practice and relevant to real life emergency situations.

"The Training Centre is providing quality refresher first aid training for the custody centres of the Devon & Cornwall Constabulary. This has been instrumental in maintaining an excellent skill level for staff in this difficult working environment."
Sgt Mike Griffin, Unit Manager in HR Operations Training, Devon & Cornwall Police

The Training Centre organized First Aid Training for the learners on the Isles of Scilly. Learner feedback was very positive, they found the course innovative. From the same feedback, interest was shown for other courses which the Training Centre might be able to provide in the future. From an administrative point, it was a pleasure working with the Training Centre, evidence was freely available to ensure no double funding issues arose. Ofsted were present for one session, and they spoke highly of the provision. So our grateful thanks for enabling us to provide our learners with such a professional experience.
