Special Needs and LLN Reasonable Adjustment

Surf Life Saving SA recognises that students participating in training courses may have varying learning styles and support requirements. These may include but are not limited to students with language, literacy and/or numeracy concerns, or abilities. Students with any special needs are requested to contact us prior to registering for a course to discuss suitable arrangements.

Face-to-face delivery and theory assessment is conducted using the following methods:
  • Theory Assessment: participants must successfully complete the online eLearning component prior to attending the course and a short answer/ multiple choice assessment on the day.
  • Practical assessment:
    • Scenario assessment: participants are required to demonstrate the essential skills and knowledge to respond to a range of first aid or emergency situations, including scenarios aligned with the performance criteria required for this program.
    • Demonstration of providing cardiopulmonary resuscitation procedures: CPR on adult, child and infant training manikins, and use of an AED on child in line with the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) Guidelines.
    • Participants will carry out a variety of first aid practical scenarios to demonstrate their compliance. 

Please note as of 1st September 2022 the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) have advised Registered Training Organisations that training and assessment activities undertaken during First Aid and CPR courses will revert to pre-COVID conditions. This means learners will be required to demonstrate rescue breathing techniques on manikins and not simulate such skills to the side of the manikin as previously allowed during the pandemic.  Learners will not have the opportunity to request an exemption from providing rescue breaths if they wish to gain a competent result in the Unit of Competency and/or qualification.
