Student Reviews & Feedback

I completed my first aid at work course with Skills Training Group at their Manchester office. Alan was the most enthusiastic first aid trainer I’ve had. In fact, I’ve attended a few first aid courses now and this is the best one that I’ve been on! I’d recommend Skills Training Group to anyone. – Katie Parker

For anyone needing their first aid certification, I’d recommend the guys at STG. The first aid venue was easy to get to and the price was the best that I could find. Top guys, thank you! – Simon Walter
