Tho I took this course 3 years ago with another company. It felt like it was my first time again. My instructor was both entertaining and informative. I learned so much and there was no question I asked that he couldn’t answer (and I ask a lot of questions). Hats off to Amit and SOS First Aid for making the course so much fun to learn.read more

This review is for the Brampton First-Aid CPR course taught by Colin. Firstly, the course is well organized and although it is only 2 days long, there is a wealth of knowledge that is learned to handle many situations requiring first-aid or CPR. Colin is a wonderful instructor who has real-world experience as a working paramedic. His expertise and experiences helped to prove points and demonstrate different techniques during the course. If you are in doubt about selecting a course that is affiliated with Red Cross, do not hesitate with SOS and Colin as the instructor. Thanks!read more

I took my Standard First Aid recertification course with SOS First Aid and Safety Training, and it was wonderful. The instructor was extremely knowledgeable and used her past experiences to relate the course materials to us. The instructor knew how to teach the material in a very interesting and fun way, in which everyone enjoyed and understood, making the day fly by. I highly recommend SOS First Aid and Safety Training.read more
