“The quality of this course is, in my opinion, excellent. Teaching and practical interpretation is very easy to understand. For me, as a non-native English speaking individuals, this course is an excellent source how to obtain the necessary knowledge in this area and their potential use in practice.”
Miluse Korbelova, Woking

“I had previously attended week long first aid courses, which were frankly expensive and full of 3 days of padding.
This online course was excellent-derailed where it needed to be, but otherwise concise. The quizzes were a great knowledge check. I will be using this course for my future employees.”
Russ Shopland, Folkestone

Award Winning Training
“Have been on the St Johns Ambulance 3 day courses and 2 day refresher courses over the last 20 years but have learned so much more on your course. Really enjoyed the complete course, you are a excellent teacher 5 stars all the way.”
Ronald Barlow, Sevenoaks

“Found this online course very helpful, we are looking to role these out for additional training to complement our Level 2 and Level 3 FAW courses. Very well put together and a valuable training resource.”

“I have recently completed the Online Essential First Aid course equivalent to 2 hours CPD. I did it at one sitting as I found the mix of videos, quizzes and basic information pages held my attention. Emma’s style as trainer is non-threatening and empathetic. Her advice is practical and presented in a manner which makes it both helpful and memorable. I was thrilled to get my certificate at the end. I would heartily recommend this course to others.”
