About This Course

The First Person on Scene Intermediate (FPOS-I) Level 3 course is a comprehensive pre-hospital care qualification designed for individuals who are likely to be first on scene in emergency situations. This intermediate-level course builds on foundational medical knowledge and provides enhanced skills to assess, stabilise, and manage casualties in dynamic and high-pressure environments until advanced medical support arrives. With a strong emphasis on practical, scenario-based training, learners develop the confidence and capability required for operational roles within close protection, security, and remote or hostile environments. FPOS-I is widely recognised across the UK security and event industries as a reliable and effective medical qualification for those requiring a higher level of capability than standard first aid or entry-level courses. Upon successful completion, candidates will receive an industry-recognised Level 3 FPOS-I certification, valid for three years.
