The course was really informative

The course was really informative. There was good flow, and an open dialogue, which made it easy to ask questions, without being put down. Being part of discussion groups, hearing personal examples, seeing impactful videos, and getting expert up-to-date information ensured that I left the course with the knowledge and skills to effectively use first aid if required.

Excellent course, expertly delivered

Having completed several first-aid at work courses over the years, I can honestly say this one from The Skillzone was the best by far. Kevin was very informative and engaging with the class and ready to answer any questions that arose throughout the day. Highly recommended++++

First aid training was excellent!!

The first aid training was excellent! The class was taught by a confident and competent trainer. He put us at ease through many practical applications on how to calmly and confidently deal with an emergency issue. I would definitely reccomend this company. Capped off with a realistic discussion on how to mentally deal with being in a traumatic experience, such as giving cpr, was the perfect icing on the cake!

BLS and First Aid at Work

I have done a few courses with the skillzone... Basic life support (BLS) in order to maintain my frec 3 certificate. I followed this up with a three day first aid at work course as part of my cpd and up skill and maintain what I have learnt, Kevin delivers a good and informative course and gives some good carer advice.

3 Day First Aid Course- fantastic!

The three day first aid course was extremely well facilitated and engaging. The facilitators were extremely knowledgeable and experienced with first hand examples, which helped to engage the group. It was made to be a fun and relaxed course, but maintained the seriousness and effectiveness of knowing the first-aid practices. Definitely recommend for future!!
