What our customers say

“Trainer was excellent and practical skills opportunities were great (Level 3 Award in Paediatric First Aid). I feel that I have learnt a lot and am inspired and delve deeper into First Aid due to the trainer. I will bring my new skills back to my work place and ensure I implement necessary changes,

“The trainer (Paul) was engaging and not too serious which I feel is needed when the subjects can be too heavy for people and not all people enjoy seriousness. The course (Emergency First Aid at Work) covered all areas adequately.”

“Amanda (trainer) was brilliant. Engaging, interesting, really knew her stuff and was good at teaching what she knows and shared just enough stories to make it real, fun and interesting (First Aid at Work). 10/10″

“I honestly think the trainer was absolutely amazing! (First Aid at Work) I was worried and anxious before the training but I honestly feel sad that it’s over and knowing I might not see them again anytime soon!”

“Dave has been great and I really enjoyed his real life experiences (First Aid at Work Requalification). It is a fast paced course but I thoroughly enjoyed the 2 days. There have been many changes since I first qualified 3 years ago so I am glad I came. Thank you!”

“Great trainer, detailed descriptions and overall subject knowledge. A lot was learnt and the delivery of this (First Aid at Work) played a significant role. I loved that we were only a class of 3, it allowed for more in depth questions and learning. I really enjoyed frst aid this time! I have increased understanding and confidence in responding to situations that require first aid. 10/10″

AB

“The trainer was brilliant, using real life incidents and stores as examples really helped me to learn and remember. The training was really engaging with lots of time for questions which were answered fully. I feel more confident in practicing first aid now than i did on my last course.”

“The course (Bespoke Manual Handling for O/Ts) was very enjoyable. Sarah was very friendly and confident and had a lot of knowledge and patience.”

“Trainer was fantastic and very knowledgeable. I am much more aware of fire safety and will put a plan in place with my colleagues. 10/10”

“Thank you to Roger, the trainer (Fire Marshal with Live Fire) for extremely interesting and informative training which he was able to adapt to the roles of the group who were from a variety of organisations and roles.10/10″

“The trainer was lovely and very informative. Delivers the course in a nice way that makes you feel relaxed and more able/willing to participate and no fear of being wrong. Doesn’t highlight you in the spotlight which can make you feel uneasy when you are so this was appreciated. The course was very thorough with some extra information provided to help. 10/10”

BA

“It was a fantastic, practical and relevant course by an excellent, passionate trainer. I will be more aware of possible minor injuries that can be serious or lead to something serious. 10/10”

JM

“Really enjoyed the 2 days. The trainer was extremely knowledgeable and made it very interesting and fun. He was very helpful and respectful when I found the resuscitation part personally difficult due to a personal experience. 10/10”

NS

“There were lots of giggles throughout the day that made the training more enjoyable (First Aid Infants and Children for Carers at Home). It was a good reminder of emergency proceedures”,

ML, Private

“I would just like to Thank you so much for squeezing me into the course last night (2 hour Free infant and child Resuscitation). I went in to it with zero knowledge on choking and resuscitation and first aid but left the course confident I could put in to practice what I was taught. Te instructor was an absolute hero…. so knowledgeable, so friendly, so helpful and so amazing he stayed on late to run through everything with me to make sure I was confident. Especially after an incident my wife had the day before in a supermarket. I will be booking my wife and her siblings onto the next course – I can’t speak highly enough of it! Thank you again and please pass on my thanks again to the trainer, he really is amazing.”

“By far the best First Aid course I have attended. 10/10”

SB

“Great trainer and did an excellent job of keeping us engaged throughout the day. I have more knowledge on various scenarios and feel more confident to put into practice. 10/10”

LC

“The training was relevant, really informative, comprehensive and at a great pace (Foundation Level Manual Handling) 10/10.”

“I attended a First Aid at Work course this week and I want to let you know how fantastic the trainer was. I have never enjoyed a course so much and I was actually not looking forward to it as I had attended a previous first aid course some years ago (not with yourselves) and did not enjoy it. He delivered the training professionally and constantly kept people’s attention as he made it so interesting and kept everyone involved. I am going to miss attending the course tomorrow. He is an absolute credit to Acorn.”
