Ross was fantastic - engaging, funny and truly passionate. His enthusiasm was infectious and inspired a really positive atmosphere. I was so impressed by his deep and varied knowledge, and especially by the well thought out range of props and scenarios we went through every day. A very hands on experience that made me feel prepared to deal with a genuine scenario.

I really enjoyed this course and find the practical side of it helps me to remember the information and procedures much better. Also the calm no rush manor of Tom and Dave when delivering this course makes it easier to ask questions and practise skills without feeling pressured.
