Green Cross Global Reviews

very professional, very nice trainer, very clear and concise training

The trainer Kris Purser was brilliant he taught the course material in an interesting and light hearted manner whilst still ensuring the seriousness on the course was maintained. I really enjoyed the course and the way Kris presented it.

Great course, the trainer was very helpful.

I found the course content to be good, although the last few modules appeared to have been rushed. Partly due to the fact we lost 30 mins on day one due to the fact x3 people attended the wrong course at the wrong location, and also because the trainer's stories were at times, a little long winded. I had already commented on the paper feedback concerning the trainer, and spoke to him directly after the course had finished. In short, I was the only person from BT attending, the others were from Tesco. Whilst I have absolutely no objection in mixing with other businesses, I did , in my opinion, get singled out for repetitive snide remarks about my company directly from the trainer himself. He may have well had problems concerning his personal telephone line and broadband, but I did not expect side comments (he clearly thought some were amusing; I however did not) from the outset directed about my company in front of others. I did not expect comments about managers being described as like a spinal column removed ... "spineless" . As a manager, I found this distasteful and simply not funny. I am not exaggerating when I state comments continued for 3 days, and indeed, on the 3rd day in front of the class, I did say" that's enough and move on". David also made a comment directed to myself and a young lady referring his conversation to a lad about gunshot wounds as as " men talk", to which I took umbrage, and said I thought that was a sexist remark. His reply was " sorry.. boy's talk then". He also made another comment as he passed my desk after returning from break, saying, " just been speaking boy's talk". A further example of how (my perception) he was sexist, was the fact he was more than happy to show an injury from his phone of a casualty who had sustained a hand injury from car keys. Happy to show the "boys", but made it clear that we, as woman , may find it distressing. As the young lady pointed out to him, we had, actually, given birth, so blood and guts was nothing new. As I pointed out, I too could have made loads of snide remarks that he was ex police/RAF, but chose not to, as it would lower myself, and would be unprofessional. To conclude, the content was interesting, and I gave feedback to him once the course had completed. The trainer needs to realise that we are actually in the 21st Century, and to be professional in delivering training.

Attendees felt the Trainer wasn't very organised at the beginning. The course was meant to start at 9am, but proceedings did not get underway until 10am, which resulted in material being rushed at the end. Organisation by the venue was also very poor - no cups for coffee apparently. Apart from that our staff felt they learnt something and were overall happy with the content of the course.

Very efficiently from beginning to end.Very easy to book and the staff concerned are always very helpful and obliging

The Rodney hotel is not a suitable venue for a first aid course. There is no parking. the room was cramped and it was difficult to complete the practical part of the course

excellent across the board.

The test at the end of the course did not correlate with the booklet given out. The page numbers were incorrect.

Really good course. Guy was great (perhaps too many stories of friends and personal accidents ) But very thorough and an excellent teacher.Thanks Guy
