5 star training
As a company, we have used CTS for all our training courses for the last 2 years. The CTS team are highly knowledgable and any questions we had were answered. All courses were interesting and as a company, we keep staff updated on courses which CTS provide. A 5* service from a 5* team.Highly recommended and will definitely be using them again.

Thankyou, what an amazing review, so glad you enjoyed the course and hope to see you again soon.
AMAZING!! First aid at work experience
I did a 3 day First aid at work course with one of the trainers Shaun through my job. The training was amazing, practical scenarios, PowerPoint and videos were so informative and Shaun went above and beyond to make sure all questions we had were answered and any thing that could ever happen was covered. He had loads of supplies, scenarios and different teaching techniques that accommodate to the different ways people learn.
To summarise I would highly recommend this company!! I will be coming back to further my knowledge and training with them soon

Karla, thanks for the review. Your existing knowledge, alongside your willingness to get involved made the course easier to teach. A great bunch of workmates you have and the course flew by. I look forward to seeing you in the future when you come back to further your knowledge by doing a FREC 3 course.
ILS Course 21st October 2023
Attended an ILS course in Leeds with Shaun and was very impressed with his attention to all of us on the course and the manner the course was presented.
The fact that instead of a manikin a real person was used to demonstrate real wounds during the trauma management part of the day was a great touch which we all enjoyed.
Well done Shaun :-)

Quick and Efficient Service
This week I had a quick exchange with Shaun regarding ID Cards.
I sent him pictures, logo and information required along with a brief outline and within 24hrs they were made, checked and sent out.
Today I received them 1st Class signed for via Royal Mail.
The ID cards are excellent quality, and include holographic imaging to prove authenticity.
Reasonable price and quick and efficient service.
Thanks again, Jamie @ Biggar Response

Was struggling to find a FREC level 3 refresher, when Shaun came to the rescue! A brilliant interactive course with lots of discussion, role play and an excellent trauma/triage exercise. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to do a FREC level 3 or refresher course.

Knowledgeable trainer
Would highly recommend CTS and shaun ( trainer ), Went into this course with little first aid experience, shaun taught with enthusiasm and energy.
He didn't bore you with power points.
His experiences and expertise made learning a pleasure not a chore.
Would definitely recommend CTS
Thanks shaun

FREC 3 with Shaun @ CTS
Been on a course with Shaun, by far the best and most enjoyable course i have done .
Shaun teaches in a very relaxed style that is not death by PowerPoint, his teaching methods are extremely effective. He has a vast amount of skills and knowledge that makes his teaching style enjoyable.
Cannot reccomend him enough.
