What our Lower North Island clients say
I have done many first aid courses and this would have to be the best. Best run, best organised and best delivery.
KellyLearner and School Principal
An excellent course and an excellent tutor. Practical Training is exactly what we got, tuned perfectly to the needs of the group.
ShaunLearner
What a fabulous job your team did yesterday. My students had a wonderful day and learned a lot of new skills. The day was well run, organised , structured and fun. It really was the best day that kept the students engaged and focused.
AlisonFirst aid organiser (High School Gateway Teacher and Coordinator)
From the moment I called admin to inquire about available first aid courses through to today’s well paced and informative training session, the team at PTS were responsive, and highly professional. Very good use is made of modern training supports which added to knowledge and understanding of the subject being taught. As someone who spent 30 years in administering Human Resources I could not fault PTS processes or delivery and commend the company to anyone considering retaining a training organisation.
MurrayLearner
Excellent training. First time I’ve actually felt like I could walk away and confidently say I am a first aider. I was greeted with a smile , I was offered a drink which made me feel valued. During the training everything was explained to me in a way I could understand. I am pleased with my experience here and hope our company continues to use your service.

A great company to do my Workplace First Aid Course through. Amazing trainers, and a great premises to work within and access. The trainer put my nerves at ease, and was so supportive during my practical first aid session. What I learnt was both relevant and useful for my workplace, as well outside of work hours too. I would highly recommend them for anyone wanting to do a first aid course that was both comprehensive and of high quality. Thank you Practical Training Solutions!

Thank you so much. the training was excellent and very specific for our context. I was on camp last week and a boy knocked out his front adult tooth. The first aid training gave me the confidence to know exactly what to do.

Everyone was stoked with the course yesterday. Was exactly the first aid course we were after. Sounds like we are all keen to do it again in a couple years. Was good doing it with the neighbours as well as there's a good chance they are going to be the first ones showing up to help first.

I have attended several Practical Training Solutions training sessions over the years, they cater to all learning styles and needs, they support, encourage each participant to achieve. If you do your home-work, go with an open and focused attitude you will enjoy. Nga mihi

I just wanted to take the time to let you know how impressed we were with the training. The trainer provided a relaxed yet informative session and everyone once again left with confidence that they can help in an emergency situation.

Really enjoyed! Loved that it was more hands on & practical. Trainer was great at leading this programme, great knowledge base and easy to engage. Great programme! Would recommend to others.

I thoroughly enjoyed my first aid training both online and in person. The facilitator was engaging and the tutorials were lively and lots of fun. I recommend Practical Training Solutions to all business groups looking to upskill their staff in first aid.

We have all gained so much, and all left feeling more confident in our abilities to help in an emergency situation. The trainers were supportive and enthusiastic and encouraged us to use the knowledge and skills that we had learnt. Thank you very much.

JeanLearner
Recently sent 3 staff members on the Workplace First Aid blended course. Great patience and communication from office staff with bookings, and the training itself was brilliant as always. Could not recommend highly enough.
First Aid Organiser
Thank you for a well run course. Please pass on my personal thanks to the trainer.
His depth of knowledge and practical hands-on course were very much appreciated.
MikeLearner (Electrical Competency Course)
Thanks a billion!! Awesome training and fantastic trainer. Really appreciate the time, it went really quickly. Perfect amount of support, encouragement, and locking in different first aid scenarios that can be seriously daunting. Learned many new things and am more confident than I initially thought I'd be.
JimileenLearner
