“Usually you don't hear staff that take first aid training to be too excited about taking the class. The athletic centre staff had a great time. They really enjoyed the energy of the instructor and the role playing that took place. In the words of one of our supervisors “the first aid training was awesome, it wasn't dry at all”

"Action First Aid has been providing first aid/CPR courses for the Simcoe County District School Board since September, 2001. I have personally attended the course and found it to be excellent. The instructor (Deb) did a great job at presenting the material in an informative, professional manner. The presentation style with the use of scenarios and interaction between participants helped to make the course enjoyable. I did not feel intimidated as with some other courses I have attended.

The course has also been extremely well received by staff, many have personally commented that it was the best course they have attended. Some examples of comments received on course evaluations include:

  • "Very professional"
  • "The course was very thorough and it was useful. As well, the teaching tactics made a 2 day presentation enjoyable"
  • "Great course! A lot of excellent ideas to bring back to our schools"
  • "Deb was an excellent and interesting instructor and presented theinformation well. It was great!"
  • "Deb made the course not only informative, but interesting"
  • "I found the course excellent. It was presented in a way that was easy to understand & pick up on and fun at the same time"
  • "Best course I've taken of several I've done. Excellent simulations, great positive teaching style"
