Requirement
When do you need a PMVA refresher?
PMVA certification must be renewed annually. The 1-day PMVA refresher course maintains your BILD Act (RRN) certification and is required by most NHS trusts and staffing agencies as a condition of ongoing placement.
PMVA certification is valid for 12 months. Once your certificate expires, you must complete a refresher to maintain your certification and eligibility to work in PMVA-designated healthcare settings.
Your certificate is expiring
Book your refresher before your current certificate expires to maintain continuous certification.
Your certificate has recently lapsed
If your certificate has lapsed within the last 6 months, you may be eligible for the refresher rather than the full 3-day course. Contact us to confirm.
Your employer requires annual renewal
Many NHS trusts and staffing agencies require annual PMVA refresher training as a condition of employment or placement.
What does the PMVA refresher cover?
The 1-day PMVA refresher revisits core skills, updates on any changes to RRN standards, and ensures delegates maintain competency in all key areas.
