Our trainers

Our trainers come from a wide variety of backgrounds with high levels of knowledge, these include teaching, leisure, public services, lifeguarding, security, and fire service.

How do our courses work?

Since the date of our inception, we have learnt to tailor our training to the group of learners, so each course we deliver is slightly different to the next. However we never lose sight of being thorough and as interactive as possible. We use different delivery aids; books, handouts, dvds, games and practical activities to ensure learning is at it’s best.

What time do our open courses start?

Courses start promptly at 9.30am. It is strongly recommended to arrive 15 minutes early for registration. If a learner is more than 30 minutes late, they will be turned away and need to re-book to attend another course.

What to bring to our courses?

Learners must wear comfortable, practical clothing for taking part in physical activities. Clothing must be suitable for the training environment and not cause harm or any form of embarrassment. We also require all learners to bring note taking materials and photographic ID for certification purposes and also a packed lunch and/or refreshments.

Are there breaks during the training?

There are typically 3 comfort breaks during a day’s course. 1 mid morning and 1 mid afternoon, these are 10-15 minutes each. Lunch break is in the middle of the day for around 30 minutes.

Is there a test?

We commonly get asked this. We try to make course as enjoyable as possible and not focus on any form of formal assessment. Assessment is usually carried out by the trainer by use of Q&A and practical activities. However, for statutory compliance courses ie Fire Marshal, Health & Safety, First Aid at Work, Paediatric First Aid, and Food Safety there is a multiple choice question paper to complete in order to pass the course. A good understanding of English is required, and for our glass wearers, don’t forget your glasses!!

Can I bring my child to the training?

Unfortunately we cannot accept children on our courses due to Safeguarding reasons.

Can I bring an interpreter to the course?

This is absolutely fine as we are inclusive to everyone and we respect individual needs, but we will need advance notice at the time of booking.

What happens if I can’t attend a course?

It happens; illnesses, issues with childcare, etc, so don’t worry. For genuine instances we can re-schedule your training, given enough notice (see our cancellation policy here). For our open courses we cannot offer refunds but you are more than welcome to send a replacement learner to the course.

How do I get my certificate once I’ve attended the course?

We are now sending certificates via email after the course has been completed. This is more convenient for our customers, and reduces our carbon footprint.

What happens if I lose my certificate?

Don’t worry! Just contact us, and we’ll happily replace your certificate for you. There is an administration charge for this service, see more information here
