First Aid Training on the West RandRoodepoort, Krugersdorp and Randburg

Need first aiders on the West Rand? We come to you in Roodepoort, Krugersdorp, Randburg and the towns around them, and run the course at your own premises. Every level, from First Aid Level 1 up to Level 3, is accredited by the Department of Employment and Labour and aligned to the QCTO curriculum, with a certificate that stays valid for 3 years. For Level 1 at your site, a group of 4 to 9 pays R950 per person excl. VAT, with travel added and a lower rate as the group grows. If only one or two staff need it, they can book a seat in our Centurion public class at R1,050 each.

The Towns We Cover

• Roodepoort and the suburbs around it
• Krugersdorp and the wider West Rand
• Randburg, in Johannesburg’s northern suburbs

We have no venue on the West Rand or in Randburg, so we bring the training, the manikins and the AED trainers to your premises. For Sandton, Midrand and the rest of the city, see First Aid Training in Johannesburg.

First Aid on the West Rand: What Matters Locally

When someone is badly hurt, who comes depends on which side of the municipal line you are on. Roodepoort and Randburg are part of the City of Johannesburg, so Joburg EMS responds there. Krugersdorp is in Mogale City, where fire fighting is a West Rand District Municipality service, shared with Rand West City and Merafong. Check the emergency numbers for your own address before the training day, and pin them up beside your first aid box.

Manufacturing is the biggest sector in the West Rand District, at 22 percent of its economy, with mining next at 19 percent. In a Krugersdorp engineering shop or a mine supplier’s yard, your first aiders should be ready for deep cuts, burns, fractures and a possible head or spinal injury after a fall. Those all sit on the First Aid Level 1 outline, including the log roll for a suspected spinal injury.

Roodepoort is more homes, shops and offices: the City describes its Region C as mainly residential, with commercial nodes at Westgate, Northgate and Princess Crossing. For a shop or a school there, Level 1 is usually enough, with a second trained person so a leave day never leaves the site uncovered.

Water is the other local point. Randburg and Roodepoort were among the areas listed for disruption during the Rand Water maintenance shutdowns from late May to July 2026. A burn needs cool running water for a long time, so a first aider should know where your stored water is when the taps are off.

Each of the three towns has its own Department of Employment and Labour office for injury on duty claims: Foley Street in Factoria, Krugersdorp; Main Reef Road in Roodepoort; and the Hillview Centre in Randburg.

First aid training in Roodepoort

Roodepoort mixes the office parks of Constantia Kloof with light industry, shops and schools, and the law treats them differently. Shops and offices need at least one first aider for every group of up to 100 employees, and other workplaces one for every group of up to 50, once you have more than 10 employees. DDi recommends at least 2 per site, so cover continues when one is on leave. We train at your premises in Roodepoort, with the manikins and AED trainers brought to you. The calculator on the First Aid Level 1 page works out your number.

First aid training in Krugersdorp

Krugersdorp is about 50 km from our Centurion venue along the N14, so training at your own premises is an easy day for us and saves your team the trip. Chamdor, Factoria and the mining suppliers around the town are working sites where the risks can be higher than in an office, and First Aid Level 2 may suit them better than Level 1 if your risk assessment says so. Onsite training carries travel by distance, shown on your quote before you book. Your team stays on your premises, and competent delegates leave with their certificates signed. Request a quote with your Krugersdorp address.

First aid training in Randburg

Randburg sits between the West Rand and Johannesburg’s northern suburbs: offices, retailers and schools around Ferndale, and light industry in Strijdom Park. For most offices here, First Aid Level 1 is the right course, and one person can do it at a public class while a bigger team trains at your premises. A seat at our Centurion venue is R1,050 per person, the final amount. Onsite, small groups pay one flat rate, and larger groups pay from R730 per person for groups of 20 or more, excl. VAT, plus travel.

What It Costs by Team Size

• One or two people: a seat in the First Aid Level 1 public class at our Centurion venue is R1,050 per person, the final amount. Onsite, small groups pay one flat rate.
• A team of 4 to 9: R950 per person onsite, excl. VAT.
• A team of 20 or more: R730 per person onsite, excl. VAT.
• 30 or more: ask us, bigger discounts apply.

Every tier, the small-group flat rates and the travel amounts are in the prices section below. Travel is R550 flat up to 100 km round trip, then R5.50 per km, excl. VAT, and your quote shows it for your address. First Aid Level 2 runs onsite only, from R1,490 per person for groups of 20 or more (R1,980 for 4 to 9); First Aid Level 3 is from R2,485 onsite for groups of 20 or more (R3,280 for 4 to 9), or R3,280 in the Centurion public class over two weekends. Onsite prices exclude VAT.

Krugersdorp is quicker to reach than many people expect, because the N14 runs almost straight there from Centurion. Your quote shows the travel for your exact address.

What Your Team Practises

• Adult, child and infant CPR manikins, and AED trainers (automated external defibrillators)
• A choking vest, to practise the choking method
• A box of different bandages, and splints
• A burn shield, opened so you see what it looks like

The day ends with a practical assessment and a short theory assessment. Once the assessor and facilitator are happy, they sign the certificates onsite, so competent delegates leave with theirs (we need each ID copy before the training).
