If you manage a business in Perth and need first aid training for your team, chances are you’ve got a few things on your plate already. You’re juggling rosters, trying to keep things compliant, and looking after your staff — the last thing you need is the hassle of sending everyone off-site for training. That’s where group first aid training makes things easier.

WJS Training offers group training, whether you are a business, a sporting club, a family, or a group of friends getting together to learn first aid and CPR. WJS Training delivers first aid courses directly at your location, making it easy and efficient for both small (minimum 5 participants) and large workplace groups.

Whether you have a team of 5 or 50, or 100, we’ll tailor the experience—sending additional trainers or splitting your group into manageable sessions. This ensures all participants receive hands-on, practical instruction and certification in a single, convenient visit.

Why Group First Aid Training is Important

We all hope emergencies never happen — but if they do, your team needs to be ready. Having trained staff around can help someone in those critical first minutes, reduce how bad an injury gets, and give people confidence to step in and help.

In fact, around 13,000 serious injuries happen at work each year in Western Australia (according to Safe Work Australia). Quick action saves lives, and the faster your team can respond, the better the outcome.

If you’ve got five or more people, booking a first aid training group session with us at your workplace is one of the smartest, easiest ways to keep your team ready.

Options for Group First Aid Training

Below, we’ve listed some of the group first aid training options currently available on the market. In our opinion, the good choices for workplace training are:

On-site Training

Not many providers, but some, such as WJS Training, will come to your workplace for group training, often with a minimum number of participants (for a group of 5+ – WJS Training).

Private Group Bookings

Some providers allow you to book sessions specifically for your group, with courses tailored to your needs. 

Tailored Training

Some providers offer courses that can be customized to suit your specific work requirements or scenarios. 

What’s the Difference between On-site Group First Aid Training and at a Provider’s Training Centre?

Compared to sending people off one at a time, here’s what you get when you book training for your whole team: everyone gets certified together, you save hours (sometimes days) of admin, you get consistent info across your whole team, you don’t have to manage multiple bookings or locations, and it usually costs less too.

Plus, there’s less disruption to your day. Your team stays at work. Training gets done. You move on.

Perth Businesses Are Choosing Group Training More Than Ever

Since COVID changed how we work, more Perth businesses have been switching to first aid training group sessions. They’re quicker, easier to organise, and better for team learning. Industries like construction, childcare and education, health and aged care, retail, and office-based teams are all jumping on board. Training your group together helps keep your business safe and compliant, without making things complicated.

How to Make Group Training Work for Your Business

Here’s what you’ll need to check:

Do you have a minimum number of participants ready?

Got a quiet space like a meeting room?

Need full first aid or just CPR refreshers?

What dates work for your team?

WJS Training helps with all of that. They’re flexible and understand how tricky it can be to get everyone together, especially if you’re managing a busy team.

Why Group First Aid Training Helps You Stay Compliant

Under Safe Work Australia’s guidelines, every workplace must have the right first aid arrangements. That includes having trained people available, keeping certifications up to date, and having first aid kits and procedures in place. Not meeting these rules can affect your business legally and financially, especially if something goes wrong. Training your team together in one go is a simple way to stay covered.
