First Aid Training for Companies

We train your employees at your premises and bill your Berufsgenossenschaft directly.

Workplace first aider training: trainer in a high-visibility vest practises CPR with a defibrillator

Every company in Germany must appoint and train first aiders – this is required by DGUV Vorschrift 1. EH Campus is authorised by the quality assurance body for first aid of the German Social Accident Insurance (DGUV) under number 8.1817. Our courses are recognised by all Berufsgenossenschaften and Unfallkassen, and the costs are usually covered by your accident insurance institution.

Language: courses are held in German. For your team we can hold the course in Russian on request. You are welcome to write to us in English.

How cost coverage works

Training of workplace first aiders is funded by the Berufsgenossenschaften and Unfallkassen if your company is a member, the participants are appointed as first aiders and the training takes place at an authorised centre. We check all three points with you before the course and handle the billing ourselves.

  1. You register your participants – we need your company details, your membership number with the Berufsgenossenschaft and the names of the participants.
  2. We hold the course. Every participant signs the attendance list, which is the basis for billing.
  3. We bill your Berufsgenossenschaft directly, not you. You receive a copy for your records.

If your company is not a member or the participants are not appointed first aiders, we bill you directly: 65 € per participant for the basic course.

We come to you

From ten participants we train directly at your company – also in two groups on one day, in the evening or on Saturdays. You provide a room where people can practise on the floor; we bring training manikins, a training defibrillator, dressing material and documents. For smaller companies we rent a room locally and combine several companies on one date, so even five people get an economical course.

Frequently asked questions from companies

How many first aiders does a company need?

According to DGUV Vorschrift 1, at least 5 percent of the insured persons present in administrative and retail companies, and at least 10 percent in all other companies. With up to 20 insured persons present, one first aider is enough.

Usually nothing. If the participants are appointed workplace first aiders and your company is a member of a Berufsgenossenschaft or Unfallkasse, it covers the costs. We bill them directly. Without cost coverage we charge 65 € per participant.

Every two years. The refresher course also has nine lessons. If the deadline is missed, a full basic course is usually required again.
