Had my first CPR and First aid training with CPR first aid and I must say the experience I have... with their trainer Tony was amazing. Tony kept up the energy throughout the class that made it interesting and not boring. He made us all comfortable that we weren't scared to ask questions if we did not understand. His stories and experiences really puts in perspective how important having CPR and First aid as a skill is. I highly recommend having this skills under your belt and CPR first aid is the way to go.read more

Great location accessible by public transport, and excellent teaching- clear materials, friendly,... very experienced instructor who kept the lessons interesting and memorable with real-life examples and stories. Moves at an appropriate pace yet covers a lot of material thoroughly. This is my second course through CPR First Aid Training and I recommend them to everyone.ETA Back three years later and quality is still excellent- Elssy kept the class moving well while explaining thoroughly and encouraging active participation from students. Always my first choice when renewing my First Aid obligations.read more

This is now the 5th time I’ve taken a CPR course with CPR First Aid and I cannot recommend them... enough. The online training is thorough without being boring, easy to access and informative. The express class is a dream to attend. In and out in under an hour?! That’s the dream. Our trainer was professional, personable and very open and constructive in giving feedback and advice to achieve the best technique for CPR. Will attend again in 12 months time without question!read more

Best first aid and CPR session. Allen is engaging with plenty of real life experience, he brings... this experience to the session, up to date statistics that illustrate and compliment the learning. Feedback from the team was that they all found this to be the most valuable experience even those who had previously done this course. Will always recommend Allen.The administration was very thorough however there are a lot of packages and options. This could be more streamline but the team help and support you right through.Well done!read more

Best way to educate yourself in real life situations. Amazing staff (Tracy) knew exactly what she... was talking about, has had so experience in teaching and is very good at adjusting to individuals needs. Learnt so much, included physical demonstrations and practicals which was super beneficial as I believe I would be able to assist in a situation real life. Great length and many times available for all people. Suited to all age groups and highly recommended to anyone who wants to feel more comfortable in their community. Will be using the same program for my refresher. Define recommend.read more

To be honest I was kinda dreading my training. The online portal was easy to navigate and the... videos were short and to the point. The face to face portion was fun. Steve our trainer made it more interactive with loads of scenarios which made you think. And this is important as I’m sure when you are in an emergency situation, having more applied knowledge is what is going to save lives. He was fun. I enjoyed the structure, pace and all at a reasonable price. Will be back and have already recommended!read more

Engaging trainer Allan kept class motivated & interested during whole session. Very hands on... training. As a nurse & paramedic Allan explained the importance of what to do/not to do. And WHY in easy to understand terms. I’ve done an annual CPR update for years. This was the best to date. I learned new information. And of course no training is complete without real life stories to reinforce the importance of 1st Aid. Highly recommendread more

As a result of past experiences with other first aid training providers, I was dreading updating my... CPR. Due to the inexpensive pricing of this training, I was expecting the same dull and robotic training of past experiences. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of training I received. For the first time, I left my first aid training with the confidence I would know what to do in an emergency. Allan was extremely knowledgeable and delivered the information with enthusiasm and passion, which ensured the training was as informative as engaging. I will be back in 12 months to update my CPR.read more

I definitely recommend booking a course at CPR First Aid training. My friends and I had a wonderful... experience yesterday. The trainer was very accommodating, knowledgeable and humourous. Her stories based on experiences related to the topics discussed made the class interesting and enjoyable! She was able to answer queries from students and gave practical advice in each scenario requiring First Aid. Students were also given the chance to practice our skills in administering CPR using manequins of different age group. The equipment and other training materials were provided to each student. The training space is spacious and the number of students in the class is just right. You won't feel that it's crowded. Covid-19 preventative measures such as social distancing, provision of hand sanitizer and sanitizing wipes to clean resources after use, and wearing mask are in place. Definitely worth the money! Will book again next year and encourage more friends to join me.read more

I just wanted to give a review on my CPR refresher course I attended last Thursday 21 April. My... instructor was Urszula. She was very professional, had a good sense of humour and appeared to be very thorough. I have been doing CPR courses for several years and this was my first time with "CPR First AID". I was so thrilled to do most of the training online at my own pace and then come in person for a very efficient class that was just under an hour. In the past I have had to give up teaching a class for the day and find a cover in order to complete a CPR course. But "CPR First AID" made it so much easier by having a lot of course options to fit my schedule and being able to do a lot of the course online was a big help. I felt prepared for the in person learning and left the course feeling confident with what I had experienced. I highly recommend this course and will definitely be back again next year!read more

Allan our instructor was brilliant with explaining and performing CPR and first aid. He provided... realistic situations that encompassed all the prep work that was required prior to the class. He also told stories both in the workforce and in social situations that show how much of what we are learning is used and the importance. These included about performing CPR even if they don't regain consciousness as their organs can still be used to save multiple lives.The class was easily understandable, welcomed questions and provided great experience and awareness! 🙂read more

Highly recommend this company. The instructor Kerren was very knowledgeable. Worked through... everything at a fast pace but still made sure everyone knew and understood what they need to do, giving plenty of time for questions. About 30 minutes after leaving the course I came across a lady who was unwell at a shopping center near by. She ended up having a seizure. I was able to help her until paramedics came. What were the odds of this happening straight after going to first aid training . This class gave me the confidence to go over and offer assistance.
