Jenene Robertson

Our Trainer Roger made our courses really enjoyable, the 4 hours just flew, you could feel how passionate he was and he was very humorous. I would highly recommend these courses, l learnt so much .

Maria Polymenopoulou

via Google

Today I did the first aid course with Faith she was very informative, very upbeat and engaging. I now am confident in what I will need to do if I was in a situation where first aid was needed

Jodie Moore

via Google

Best first aid/CPR course ever! The instructor's focus on practical application and real-life scenarios made the learning incredibly effective. Highly recommended.

Lisa Pirro

via Google

Very thorough and easy to understand First Aid course. The facilitator Faith was delightful, very engaging, and clear and concise with all the content. I really enjoyed the emphasis on applying that knowledge to lots of practice throughout the course.

Anica Raspudic

via Google

Faith was amazing and very engaging. She handled questions very well and knew how to support people in their first aid journey. She definitely made the 4 hours fly by and left me feeling more confident about my first aid abilities! 5/5 ⭐️

Michael Carracher

Parker our teacher is just so good this is the 3rd year ive done my cpr and first aid with him hes very knowledgeable and is able to share his vast knowledge so concisely i always walk away having learnt something new, his experience shows, and he goes out of his way to make you feel comfortable. 5 stars

Ravindran Egambaram

The instructor was fantastic today. They made the first aid material easy to understand and the hands-on practice felt very practical. I left the session feeling confident and well-prepared.

Gilly Watts

via TrustPilot

Instructor was very straight forward and clear, helped where necessary, shared personal experiences and worked around problems. Demonstrated well.

Hans Santosa

via TrustPilot

Ronny is a very good trainer, even though this is refresher course for me, I still learn new things from him :)

Eugine Jose

via TrustPilot

Kash

Was a very good day doing first aid cool as teacher learnt a few more tricks

AB S.

via ProductReview

The instructor explained the key points first and addressed common questions, which was far more helpful than long-winded explanations. I had miscalculated the dates and attended the CPR course a few weeks ago, and the First Aid course today. It was the same instructor, and they explained everything clearly using easy-to-understand examples.

Janelle

via ProductReview

Good afternoon, I don’t usually go to the trouble of leaving reviews however, the lady who delivered my First Aid & CPR course today was definitely worth it. I attended the session at North Toowoomba at 9am today, and I believe the trainer’s name was Carol. I have completed lots of First Aid & CPR courses over many years with different organisations, and I can honestly say I have never enjoyed one as much as I did today. Carol was funny, engaging, and didn’t waffle on like some trainers do. She was very approachable and happily helped anyone who needed it. Normally after two hours I’m nearly asleep and struggle with concentration due to my ADHD, but today I did not get sleepy at all. I hope my next refresher is with Carol, and just as enjoyable as the session was today. Kind Regards Janelle Appleton

Pablo

Glenn the trainer was very informative and helpful in the training and I would like to recommend him to anyone who would like to do the first aid course.

Devi

The session was very informative and the trainer explained things very well.
