Great learning. Very practicable, and highly recommended.
I have attended many first aid courses over the past 15 years and I can say this one has been the best. The delivery was not only knowledgeable (both from a theoretical and practical perspectives) but also it was done in such agile way that it made the days go by incredibly quickly. The trainers kept our engagement at all times and are clearly passionate not only about the subject but about facilitating the learning process. Thank you!
