Both cover the same core first aid skills, but HLTAID011 reflects updated assessment standards and terminology aligned with the current Health Training Package. If your HLTAID003 certificate has expired — or if your employer, ACECQA, WorkSafe Victoria, or a licensing body specifically requires the current qualification code — you must complete HLTAID011. AEEC delivers HLTAID011 (not HLTAID003) at both our Melbourne CBD and Werribee campuses.
Yes. HLTAID011 Provide First Aid includes full anaphylaxis management training — including how to recognise a severe allergic reaction and correctly administer an EpiPen (adrenaline auto-injector) — as well as emergency asthma management, including the use of a reliever inhaler and spacer device. These components meet ACECQA's mandatory first aid requirements for early childhood educators and childcare workers in Victoria. You will be assessed on both skills as part of your practical assessment at our Melbourne CBD or Werribee campus.
Upon passing all practical and written assessments, AEEC issues you a Statement of Attainment for HLTAID011 Provide First Aid — a nationally recognised qualification document confirming your competency. This certificate is valid for 3 years and accepted by all Australian employers, WorkSafe Victoria, ACECQA, and licensing authorities. You receive your certificate on the same day you complete the course at either our Melbourne CBD or Werribee campus. Practical competency in CPR and all first aid skills must be demonstrated to qualify for the certificate.
A current first aid certificate is required by the majority of Victoria's security employers as a condition of employment for security officers and crowd controllers. While HLTAID011 is not a strict prerequisite under Victoria Police Licensing and Regulation Division rules, it is effectively essential for anyone entering the security industry in Melbourne. AEEC also delivers the CPP20218 Certificate II in Security Operations at our Melbourne CBD and Werribee campuses — pairing your security qualification with HLTAID011 in one enrolment is the most efficient path to employment in Victoria's security sector.
