As a corporate facilitator, I am excited to share the trainer for the First Aid & CPR intermediate session was outstanding. John Devlin made the session engaging with his stories and examples. He asked open ended questions and was patient in answering all questions. He managed the wayward learners and was respectful. The only suggestion would be to set expectations before starting the class. I will demonstrate the approach. Allow me to finish before you mirror the process. I will walk you through the steps. All in all – a fantastic class. Looking forward to my recertification if it’s with John Devlin! Thanks John!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Junk Mail! 🎉 We agree, John Devlin is fantastic at keeping Standard First Aid engaging with his stories and patient teaching style.

Highly recommended! At first, I was worried that my English wouldn't be good enough to follow along in class, but once it actually started, I realized all my worries were completely unfounded. Our instructor, Ali, is both humorous and responsible! The content was concise yet practical, focusing entirely on the key points. I had such a fulfilling and joyful day. Absolutely wonderful!
