Only TAFs should use the promotional code THXTAF when enrolling into the TAF theory assessment.

BM TAFs are strongly encouraged to complete the BM Online Induction v2021.

This online induction is accessed through the SLSNSW Training Category in the SLS eLearning Library.

Is your HLTAID015 current?

Are you prepared for the re-appointment process?

As per the SLSNSW Education SOPs, and to ensure that both legislative and quality assurance requirements continue to be met, SLSNSW continues to appoint RWC, TOC and First Aid Facilitators on an annual basis.

Invitations containing Expressions of Interest (EOI) will be released via email to current RWC, TOC and First Aid Facilitators. The online EOI will take 5-10 minutes to complete.

All EOIs received will be reviewed by a panel consisting of SLSNSW standing committee chairs and SLSNSW staff. This review includes consultation with Branch Directors.

What if I want to deliver RWC, TOC or First Aid courses?

If you are interested in delivering these courses, please speak with your Branch Director of Education about commencing the relevant SLSNSW appointment process.

More information about the appointment processes is found on the SLSNSW Training Resources webpage.

What if I want to deliver First Aid courses for the ALA?
Check out the SLSNSW Work for Us webpage to see what current full-time and casual job opportunities are currently available to become a ‘ALA Trainer’.

What support is available?

Your first point of contact for support is always your club Chief Training Officer (CTO).

Your CTO is supported by your Branch Director of Education (DoE) and Branch Administrator who also support TAFs in relation to training and education matters within your local region.

The SLSNSW Training and Education Team is also available to support you, TAFs, CTOs, and DoEs across NSW.
