Testimonials

“Fantastic facilitator to credit to her delivery. She was engaging and the feedback from the participants was great!”

Kylie Norman at Inframax Construction

“Yolandi, our tutor today was bloody awesome. A wealth of knowledge and damn easy to get along with, better than every St John/Red Cross course I have attended. Keep up the good work”

Paul Clarke at Security Technician

“The presenter related to all the staff excellently, many comments made on this by both field staff and managers. Course content was also very good and what we had asked for. Considering the short notice, the service was choice and much appreciated.”

Rachel Haapu at Fulton Hogan

“As you are aware I have been a qualified first aider since 1962 and have at various times completed training with all known training suppliers. I was very impressed when I attended the refresher course in Wellington as part of my evaluation of the training you had on offer. When you arranged to run a course for Council in-house, I was blown away. Staff members were absent from their workplace for half the time span of any other training consultants, they all raved about the quality of the course, the content of the course and the presentation which was first class. Please pass my thanks to all your staff who had anything to do with this presentation. They all deserve a pat on the back.”

Lindsay Skinner at Porirua District Council

“I really enjoyed your presentation today at the Gisborne District Council. It was very informative and your engagement with the audience was fantastic. Mental illness is something a lot of people in New Zealand have some form of personal experience with. Thank you for taking the time to spread awareness.”

Bevan Blunden at Gisborne District Council

“In summary from the evaluation forms the staff filled out the evaluation ratings were 8 Excellent and 1 Very Good which gives you a good indication of how much they enjoyed the course. Summary of comments: Enjoyed course interaction with all present – great presenter; Clear, concise, easy to understand and remember; Most enjoyable and informative presentation; The information in the course was very relevant; The service has been just fine and everything has run very smoothly from my perspective. It is great from my end to know that once it is booked it practically runs itself so keep up the good work”

Christine Laurenson at Hauraki District Council

“On behalf of all those that attended your First Aid Courses Thank you. We have had great feedback on the instructors for these courses. Both instructors were informative, easy to understand and made the course exciting rather than boring. Our participants all got a great deal from this course.”

Tanya at AMA

“The feedback has been extremely positive and goes so far to say it’s the best First Aid course they’ve ever attended. The course was very informative and detailed with staff coming away feeling very confident knowing what they need to do in any situation. They were also impressed with the training using the defib unit which is great as we have one onsite. So, I would like to pass on my thanks to everyone at Life Care Consultants and I look forward to booking more courses in the future.”
