It was such a pleasure meeting him.

I had a great experience in today’s Standard First Aid/CPR-C course; the group was also supportive and communicative. Our instructor was Scott(Etobicoke, Evan’s Av.)—an excellent and well-organized instructor. Our process during the course was well-organized, and all the materials, experiences, questions, breaks, and practice were easy to understand. It gave me the confidence and willingness to help people in any situation, utilizing my skills and training.
Highly recommend.
