Length of course could be reduced. Trainer knowledge impeccable and easy to understand
The course is excellent and the trainer was superb. Highly professional, kept everyone very engaged, gave the right breaks. My only feedback is that the first half was done at a suitable pace and the group covered everything on time and was well understood. I just felt the 2nd half and the latter part of the 2nd half was really rushed and I think this will be harder to recall if required. It felt the content was possibly to long or maybe we needed one more hour to cover everything to the same depth.
I've spoken with the candidates on the course, the trainer made the candidates feel at easy allowing them to build there confidence through the course. he was very knowledgeable and took time to answer any questions they had, even going down to understand the layout of the building to help with some of there query's.
The trainer should have identified the candidate as Suitable or otherwise towards the course ending and informed the colleague if they passed or failed and why
Room was very warm which I know you can't control but did make it a long day
Well run, the trainer kept it interesting and gave plenty of real life examples so it was relevant. He was also reassuring in what we could do as first aiders and what is realistic. Very funny too! Course materials good - lots of slides and clips along with the presentation and various things to use including CPR dummies, bandages, training epi pens and training AEDs.
I have been attending First Aid courses for over 20 years. This time was as a new recruit as my certificate ran out and no renewal course was available in time. We did not, in my opinion do enough CPR practice. We had a try on day one and then the second try was the actual test at the end.
Some of the info on the slides was irrelevant as you don't learn about pulse on the course but it was referred to on the slides. the course only needed o be 2 days and felt a bit dragged out
Course went well and to timescales. The fire extinguishers were not delivered/provided for the course so I had to use our own. Russell did say that we had sent a message to Green Cross Training to make sure we got replacements.....we used 2 x CO2 extinguishers and 2 x water extinguishers.
just a little frustated that the trainer can be late but when the colleagues are late due to traffic they are sent home when he would have only doen the booking in.
