Jason was engaging and entertaining. Made the class much more fun than it may have been!

Brianne Campbell CPR, Victoria, BC More Testimonials

Nathan was awesome. I had very little sleep as I have PTSD and have a difficult time learning, especially on 3 hours sleep. But he made it make sense, completely memorable and easy for me.

Erin Gray Emergency First-Aid, Victoria, BC More Testimonials

The course was clear, well organized & interesting. The instructor was able & willing to fluidly answer questions & welcomed class participation. Props & scenarios were excellent, interesting & reflected very well potential mishaps

Virginia Beswick Emergency Childcare First-Aid, Victoria, BC More Testimonials

I loved the creative use of props, the high energy and excitement, the strong focus and clear communication, the instructor's sense of humour, and how simply all the content was organized. This was a fun, informative and well-instructed experience. Impressive - and I don't get easily impressed!

Tannauz Rahimpour Standard First Aid, Victoria, BC More Testimonials

Awesome course. I've taken a course through St. John's, but I found the level of "hands-on" training more useful. The scenarios were a great learning tool and helps to reinforce the learning.

Priti Bhathella Standard First Aid, Victoria, BC More Testimonials

Most enjoyable CPR course yet. Mike taught with a great sense of humour that made everything fun and informative.

Emily Doehnel CPR C, Victoria, BC More Testimonials

Perfect teaching! Interactive – even fun! Informative – repetitive – won’t forget material taught because basics are so reinforced and superfluous left out.

Anny Ruch Standard First Aid, Victoria, BC More Testimonials

Great course; beats the typical classroom environment. Mike did a great job of keeping the course fun & interesting. Thank you!
