The charity offers the following courses to doctors and paramedics:

Pre-Hospital Anaesthesia Course

The Great North Air Ambulance Service PHA course has been running since 2007, and was the first course of its kind in the UK. Uniquely, it is aimed at both doctors and paramedics, and puts great emphasis on the team approach to managing critically ill or injured patients.
