All trainee instructors are required to do a first aid course, but it's also just a good idea.

If I was to go for an instructorship at some stage in the future does it have to be a REC course? I've got OFA(which is about to expire) and I'm on an EFR one at the minute.

No neither of them are recognised by the Casnoeing Ireland I'm afraid. They just don't transfer to a river bank or mountain top well enough.
Remote Emergency Care (REC) and Wilderness First Aid (WFA) are both recognised by CI. They are first aid courses developed by and for people in the outdoors like paddlers, mountaineers and mounain bikers and take into account the difficulty of the envirenments and equipment and trasportation limitations which we face in the hills.
Well worth the money I have to say.
Niall Finch:
Would be very interested in this but I'm only really around the second week of midterm
