“Nick has a fantastic way of teaching that makes the course content easy to understand and memorable, even many months later! The course is run in a friendly way and the outdoor elements are not only a good change from the classroom but is very useful to see the principals in practice on slopes and on hills and the difference this makes. Great course and I will be back every 3 years!”
“I have found the mountain trauma course to be relevant and practical. It has given me fresh confidence to deal with emergency situations and the teaching and evaluation process were top quality. The course met my training needs and I'd recommend it to others.”
“I highly recommend this course. It is very useful to have a first aid course that is so relevant to our needs. The scenarios used were very realistic and matched those we may encounter when out with our Duke of Edinburgh groups. The best in-service training I have had in 14 years of teaching.”
“To be trained by a mountain rescuer was more real and relevant and I am certain I will remember the detail more clearly in an emergency situation.”
“Nick’s ability to tailor a course to our requirements was fantastic. All the boxes have been ticked and our advanced team members have completed the course feeling so much more confident to deal with a real emergency.”
