I'm German. I've had 40 hours of first aid education total in my life, and I work in IT.
One course in school, one as part of driver's education, one for my first job in food delivery, and one while volunteering at a youth center.
Good job! I took outdoor emergency care so I could volunteer for ski patrol when I was 16. It was harder than any class I had years later in university.
I’ve done multiple first aid courses over my life. There was nothing (that I remember) about how deep of a cut requires a visit to the emergency room. Every course started with the assumption that someone was in need of immediate assistance, but comments here imply an emergency room visit is needed for bad cuts even if it's not immediately life threatening.
