Castleford Training Solutions Reviews 

I was on mental health first aid course on Friday . From start to finish the course was very helpful with everything explained in a clear way also giving you time to give your views from passed experience. Shaun is a very knowledgeable teacher on the subject matter. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him for any training needs.

**Review for Castleford Training Centre - Level 3 First Response Emergency Care Course**

I recently completed the Level 3 First Response Emergency Care course at Castleford Training Centre, and I can confidently say it was an outstanding experience. The training was designed with a realistic approach, ensuring that all scenarios presented were applicable to real-life situations. This focus on realism made the course not only engaging but also incredibly beneficial for those of us looking to enter the close protection circuit. The curriculum was well-structured, providing a thorough understanding of emergency care that is essential in high-pressure environments.

The facility itself was impressive, equipped with modern resources and a supportive learning atmosphere. Our instructor was not only passionate about the subject matter but also demonstrated extensive knowledge and expertise in emergency care. Their ability to connect the training content with practical applications made the lessons resonate deeply with all participants. I left the course feeling more confident and prepared to handle emergencies professionally. I highly recommend Castleford Training Centre to anyone seeking a comprehensive and relevant training experience in first response emergency care.

Cheers Shaun

Just completed my frec 3 course with Shaun and it’s been absolutely brilliant. Shaun made everyone feel at ease and presented the course very professionally. Really enjoyed this course and would defo recommend Shaun. The practicals were a really good insight to actual scenarios. It was great and we learnt so much in these 5 days. Thank you Shaun x

Absolutely brilliant! This is the first time we've used Castleford Training Solutions for First Aid training at York Barbican and Shaun really could not have been any better. The team were completely engaged throughout and actually learnt how to care for someone in trouble as opposed to learning to pass a test. It was quite clear that Shaun has a wealth of knowledge, backed by years of experience and lots of his own learning. Our team now have real confidence in our knowledge and ability to help someone should we ever need to.

I have just completed my FREC3 course with Shaun. It was a very interesting, very interactive course. Shaun made you feel at ease. The knowledge and equipment that Shaun has is emense. And let's not forget his wife's Oscar winning performance in one of the scenarios. I won't spoil it for people booking on, but it was top quality.
If you need any form of training then this is the company to come to.
Thank you Shaun and Jen.

I have attended the frec3 course with Shaun this week. Excellent delivery and use of examples and simulated exercise's especially the cat bleed! Shaun is like a textbook of knowledge, I am thrilled to have picked such a great company and person to ensure I am confident and competent to take my new skills and knowledge into my work environment. Thank you for a great week! Hopefully there will be many courses to come. Naomi 😄

Absolutely fantastic frec 3 course, Shaun the instructor was great, i now have a greater understanding of cpr, cat bleeds (the scenario was so realistic) also burns of different types and many other aspects of the course. I would recommend this course to anyone wanting to learn what to do in different types of emergencies. I would definitely rate this course as 10/10.

the best training ever i learned so much i was very nervous at fist with being dyslexic but the support that was given to me helped me relax and get on and enjoy the training i would recommend this training to anyone shaun as to be one of the best trainers i have ever had the pleasure of meeting

Shaun made this training extremely enjoyable. I'm a British forces medic, and thought I wouldn't learn much on this course. Oh how I was wrong!

Excellent trainer and fantastic experience!

Recently attended the Level 3 Supervising First Aid for Mental Health course with Shaun.
A really great course with a great instructor.
Shaun had a wealth of experience and his teaching still is spot on.
A really well delivered course with lots of group discussion and scenarios to talk about.
I would highly recommend Shaun and Castleford Training for any of your training needs.

Absolutely brilliant course learned things I new nothing about and came away with the knowledge I never thought possible. the trainers were brilliant I would 100% recommend CTS to anyone thanks again.

very Professional team, friendly, and highly skilled in BLS and ILS training, I recommended this team for your training in your business.

We attended a EFAW course (Emergency First Aid at Work) and it was perfectly presented to us. Full of interesting and new information that will help me in the future. Amazingly taught!!!

Anyone going on this course are in for a treat!
The hands on experience of how the heart works and understanding the whole mechanism of blood flow in and out of the body is valuable for any body considering further education in the anatomy which was added with easy to read slides.
The course tutor was both friendly and informative

I recently did the Understanding the Heart & ECGs course with CTS.
The course was exceptionally ran with expert tutelage by a University Paramedic tutor. His knowledge and enthusiasm was of a highest of standards, and the course has become an important part of my CPD as a first responder. I highly recommend CTS and will be doing future courses with them.

I absolutely loved this course. Wasn’t sure about doing it but I’m so happy I did. Shaun is a great trainer. He even answered my millions of questions and answered them all in a way that I understood and I feel I’ve learned so much over the past 5 day. Thanks Shaun.

This comprehensive 5-day course is designed to fulfill the competencies outlined in the Qualsafe First Responder Emergency Care 3 framework. Here's what you can expect from this course:

Course Overview:

The FREC3 course covers a blend of theory and practical aspects. It caters to individuals who are often the first to respond to potential first aid emergencies. Participants include Police Officers, Firefighters, Emergency/Community First Responders, Door Supervisors, Close Protection Operatives, Security Guards, and those working in high-risk environments (such as the military, power stations, agriculture, and manufacturing centers).

Instructor Experience:

Your instructor, Shaun, stands out from the crowd. He doesn't rely on mundane PowerPoint presentations. Shaun's teaching style seamlessly blends theory and practice, making the days flow smoothly. His wealth of experience shines through, evident in the numerous practical examples he provides. Shaun possesses an extraordinary talent for explaining complex concepts in a fresh and accessible manner.

Scenario-Based Learning:

On day 4, a pivotal moment awaits: a scenario that should be compulsory for all emergency workers. Without giving away spoilers, let's just say it's the most detailed and well-planned scenario I have ever encountered. Even with 5 years of experience in emergency services, Shaun managed to leave a lasting impact.

Navigating Heavy Topics:

The nature of emergency care can be intense, dealing with life-threatening situations. Yet, Shaun deftly balances the mood by injecting appropriate humor. His teaching techniques ensure that everyone in the room grasps the material thoroughly.

Tests and Confidence:

Throughout the course, there are assessments and tests. Shaun's approach puts participants at ease, ensuring they understand the material thoroughly. By the end, you'll feel well-prepared for any test thrown your way.

Conclusion:

I wholeheartedly recommends this course to anyone working in emergency services or public-facing roles—be it police, ambulance, security or any industrial role.

In summary, Shaun's expertise, engaging teaching style, and the impactful scenarios make the FREC3 course a valuable exlperience for those on the front lines of emergency care.

I attended CTS's course on Understanding ECG's Presented by Harry Vines on 30/03/24.the course was well present by Harry and i came away with bucketfull of new knowledge.the reason for attending the cource was to have a bascic understanding of ECG's and how to start reading them,before going on to do my Frec4.The course was reasonably priced for a days training and i will certainly signing up for the next part of the course.Harry's approach to presenting the course makes understanding the medical subject a lot easyer.
