Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher Course FAQs

Who is required to take the Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher Course? 

Under ECDA regulations, all staff and educators working in licensed Singapore childcare centers and preschools must maintain a valid Child First Aid certification. The Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher Course is the mandatory pathway for these professionals to renew their qualifications every 2 years before their current certificate expires.

How long is the SRFAC-recognized Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher certification valid? 

A certification obtained through the Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher Course is strictly valid for 2 years. To ensure continuous ECDA compliance and stay within SRFAC (Singapore Resuscitation and First Aid Council) guidelines, learners must complete the refresher training before their current Child First Aid validity period ends.

What are the specific prerequisites for the Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher Course? 

To enroll in the Child First Aid Refresher, participants must hold a Child First Aid (CFA) certificate that is either still valid or within 3 months of its expiry date. Learners must also be proficient in English and physically capable of performing moderate activities, such as hands-on Child First Aid CPR practice.

What is the difference between the Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher and the full Mandarin Child First Aid Course? 

The Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher Course is optimized for experienced learners, featuring a condensed 3-hour online theory component compared to the 7-hour requirement for the full course. While the duration is shorter, the Child First Aid Refresher still covers all essential competencies, including infant life support, child accident prevention, and emergency response.

Does the Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher Course include "3-in-1" certification? 

Yes. Successfully completing the Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher Course at SFATC awards you three SRFAC-endorsed certificates: Child First Aid (CFA), Standard First Aid (SFA), and BCLS+AED. This comprehensive bundle ensures you meet the safety requirements for both childcare environments and general Singapore workplaces.

Is the Child First Aid Refresher recognized for NROC and NREP coaches? 

Yes. Because the Child First Aid Refresher Course includes full Standard First Aid (SFA) certification, it is officially recognized for the National Registry of Coaches (NROC) and National Registry of Exercise Professionals (NREP) mandatory requirements.

Are the fees for the Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher eligible for SkillsFuture Credits or SSG funding? 

Yes. The Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher Course is fully eligible for SSG funding and SkillsFuture Credits (SFC). When registering via our Baoza platform, your subsidy is automatically calculated in real-time so you only pay the nett fee after funding.

What happens if I miss a session or fail the Child First Aid Refresher assessment? 

To remain eligible for SSG funding, all Child First Aid Refresher trainees must use the Singpass app for e-attendance and pass all practical and theory assessments. If these requirements are not met, the trainee or their sponsoring company may be held liable for the full, non-funded Child First Aid fee.

How many attempts are given for the Child First Aid Refresher assessments? 

While the majority of our Child First Aid learners succeed on their first attempt, SFATC provides up to 3 attempts to successfully complete the theory and practical assessments.

Is the Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher Course easy? Will it be difficult to pass? 

The Mandarin Child First Aid Refresher Course is designed to be highly interactive and engaging to help learners retain life-saving skills. Because it focuses on refreshing existing knowledge, the course is easy to follow, ensuring you walk away feeling confident and prepared for real-world Child First Aid emergencies.
