Anaphylaxis Awareness Level 3 Course

Welcome to the Video Online Anaphylaxis Awareness Level 3 Course from ProTrainings. This comprehensive online training programme has been designed to help learners understand allergies, recognise the signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis, and respond confidently and effectively during an allergic emergency.

Updated Allergy Guidance for Schools in England

From September 2026, updated government guidance for schools in England will strengthen expectations surrounding allergy management and emergency preparedness. This guidance, sometimes informally referred to as Benedict’s Law, places greater emphasis on:

  • Clear allergy management policies
  • Access to spare adrenaline auto-injectors
  • Appropriate allergy awareness training for staff
  • Improved emergency response procedures
  • Creating safer environments for children and young people with allergies

This course helps schools, workplaces, organisations and individuals meet these expectations by improving awareness, knowledge and confidence when managing allergic reactions and anaphylaxis.

What You Will Learn

Throughout this course, you will develop a greater understanding of:

  • The causes of allergic reactions
  • Common allergens and allergy triggers
  • The signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis
  • Emergency treatment for severe allergic reactions
  • How and when to use adrenaline auto-injectors
  • How to keep people safe during an allergic emergency
  • The importance of fast and effective emergency action

With the correct knowledge and training, you can respond quickly and confidently if an allergic emergency occurs.
