What I particularly enjoyed about Craigs teaching of this course, was how with his vast experience he was able to keep bringing us back to the most important aspects of first aid, and how this was extremely empowering for us all…. to have the knowledge and the motivation to be able to act where others would freeze up,
Thoroughly enjoyed the course, the teacher was very helpful and provided all the information and resources we needed to complete our course. Thank you, I will continue to join your course each year.
Great customer service Great trainer fun day
It was such a good course and our teacher was awesome and funny, he really did make you feel welcome.
I completed a course online and found the materials very relevant and the assessments were marked very quickly so I could move onto the next assessment item within the same day.
Your name: JULIACompany/Organsiation: Marine Rescue Port DouglasCourse Location: OnlineRating: 4.5Review: This was a great Course and I learnt heaps from it. I needed to upgrade my First Aid skills as we will doing medivacs on the rescue vessels.I looked at a number of courses but being in far north Queensland there are not many courses available in my area. I originally was going to do the Certificate 2 in Health Care, but after talking to the staff at the College I found that I could do the Certificate 3 completely online. The price was also attractive, as it was considerably less than other Colleges. Many of the practical sessions are completed by video, which was good. The units are well written, very informative and easy to understand. I really enjoyed this course and learnt a great deal.
I did my CPR and First Aid with Alan in Lismore, I enjoyed every second of the day. He created a fun environment that made learning the content easy and enjoyable.10-/10!
I completed a cert 3 in Basic healthcare online through these guys and I am very happy with how the units and course information was constructed. Even the feedback was constructive and easy to understand.
The course that Al facilitated was concise, entertaining and engaging with loads of personal stories included. Highly recommended! I will be back! Many thanks Al and IPC.
Such a fabulous teacher and made it fun and extra informative. Would highly recommend this First Aid and CPR course
I am currently studying with IPC and the support I receive from Craig and his team is second to noneThe online training is well presented and easy to navigate. The learning is relevant to my industry. It helps being able to call the trainers and receive feedback and advice. I look forward to completing my study with IPC and will certainly use them again.
Al was an amazing instructor with plenty of knowledge and experience. I always choose to train with IPC over other organisations because they have a great training structure and skillful trainer/assessors. It was a great day of learning and abit of fun.
One of the best First Aid courses I have attended. Fast paced, highly informative and delivered with real passion.The Trainers knowledge and experience was very impressive and entertaining.
We had a community defib vandalised, rang the College and they had a replacement defib to us within a week. Absolutely fabulous.
This training was engaging and had a really great break up of activities and theory. Also Al is an absolute legend! Highly recommend this training for everyone - such important skills for all of us to know.

I attended the Ballina location. Al was fantastic! A very experienced paramedic who shared clear, practical advice. I learnt a lot in one day. I feel confident having done this course. Highly recommended.
The most engaging first aid course I’ve ever completed, Al is an absolute legend and wealth of information, I highly recommend Al as a facilitator of this course for those looking to complete first aid and CPR in the Northern Rivers.
Completed my 1st Aid today in Ballina with Al as our instructor. It was informative, enjoyable and Al made it interesting. I definitely learnt new things and found the course updated & current. Al's experience gave me confidence in his knowledge and expertise. Would highly recommend International Paramedic College for my work colleagues, friends and family.
David was great and made the class super interesting and informative. Good vibes, everyone was incorporated and I love that he told stories and got everyone involved when asking questions.
Fabulous learning experience. 100% recommend.

I felt at ease throughout the day, and enjoyed the presentations and felt confident with the knowledge and experience gained.
i have done a few first aid courses now,. and i have to say that this was the best one i did yet. Craig was awesome he explained things that no other first aid teacher has. he was so humble and couldn't fault the course at all. i would definately recommend anyone to do their first aid with Craig. great course great man thanks Craig for a great day of learning
Thank you to Alan for the quality of the training provided today in Ballina πŸ™‚ very laid back and relaxed whilst providing all the information required to ensure we are all confident that we would be acting legally and ethically if we need to provide any first aid to persons now or into the future.
I completed my first aid qualification with Alan today at the Ballina training and I must admit I haven’t learnt so much in such a short time as I did today......excellent trainer who speaks in easy to understand terminology and ensures everyone is entertained along the way πŸ™‚
Thank you Alanfor our life saving lesson. Its given me the confidence to deal with emergency situations. I am so glad I did it. It was very informative, it is a great feeling that one can save a life. Again, many thanks.L Zvirzdinas Suffolk Park
I found the instructor thorough in his teaching, his manner to be confident and calm with the right amount of humour. His experience was evident. Much appreciated.
I really enjoy my day at first aid last Saturday and have already put in practice the following Monday at my workplace. I thought our trainer was not only knowledgeable but the course was hands-on. Great tips too! Thanks
Thoroughly recommend this mob. The facilitator, Alan, not only was professional and highly informative but he made the day fun. Showed us funny videos and cracked jokes which made the mandatory work training refresher a pleasure to attend. If you are looking for real life skills with people who make you feel super comfortable then this is your crew. I look forward to next time. Thanks guys. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I have done so many cpr and first aid courses over the years but this was, by far, my favourite. I attended a Ballina class and the teacher was really great - very engaging and funny and just made re-learning the content easy. Thanks for making this day go so quick and effortlessly.
This was a great course! It was comprehensive and time efficient and I left the course feeling safer, knowing that I am now more capable to handle an unexpected situation. Jay was our teacher and she was fantastic! She was very knowledgable, taught well and allowed us to have breaks throughout the day. Highly recommend.
The training was great and the trainer made it easy to remember
I thoroughly enjoyed the course and Lisa the course teacher made the course fun and easy to understand. Will definitely recommend this to others
Excellent course for CPR and First Aid Response in an Education & Care Setting. I was very impressed with the high quality of instruction, thorough and extensive course content delivered by instructors in a very professional, caring, sharing, eloquent and patient manner. I was looking for an excellent First Aid refresher course and the International Paramedic College in Lismore was a great choice for my First Aid training.
Absolutely amazing course, couldn’t recommend it more...the Instructors made me feel a lot more confident about the possibility of having to carry out my training in an actual situation+ even in COVID times we were able to use the manikins that show blood flow to the head with led lights which makes the entire experience a lot more rewarding as we could get a realistic feel for What it takes to successfully carry out cpr !! :))
Thourough and excellently presented training. I found it simple and easy to understand.
Absolutely thorough and extremely helpful with a great teacher in Lisa, would recommend this to anyone I know, day went fast and it was a lot of fun. Well done πŸ‘.
Recommend wholeheartedly. Great trainer with medical emergency background who provided helpful context to first aid protocols. She explained not just what to do but the why behind it.
Such a great course. Easy,fun and informative learning. Having the option to read up and answer some of the questions online due to covid19 restrictions gave me confidence before I went into the classroom setting. Lisa is a fantastic teacher which helped put me at ease and ready to learn. If one of my loved ones,friends, or a stranger needed first aid, I am so happy to know I can be of use and assistance. Thank you Lisa and the International Paramedic College
What an incredible day. I have done this year upon year but I really felt like today I had a deeper understanding of the best way to administer first aid and CPR. The trainer was able to easily apply my knowledge and skills in a childcare setting too. I loved our teacher Fabricia, she was great.
Thank you β€œFabi”for a fantastic day of training - your knowledge and delivery of content is fantastic. Very clear message when trying to understand the foundations of CPR and First Aid. Thankyou
Clear , concise easy to understand.
Fabricia was very patient with all the questions and explained things in a simple way.

Thankyou
I found the First Aid training very interesting, engaging and informative. Fabricia gave a lot of encouragement and made us aware how important it is to step out of your comfort zone and just do what you know in the emergency situation, that can save someone's life. I feel like I know a lot more about what to do and how to deal with a life threatening emergency. Thank you Fabricia, enjoyed the day learning the course, very well delivered.
This was the best First Aid training I’ve ever done - engaging, informative, lots of different learning styles were catered for and our facilitator Lisa was very passionate, energetic and experienced. I can’t recommend it highly enough.
Highly recommended! Everyone should do this course! Craig really makes learning fun and easy! I feel much more confident I could deal with an emergency!
what an amazing trainer you are Craig. my son and I learnt so much from you and your training style was so easy to understand.Thank you for your time today.
I cannot reccomend to do this course enough. Craig was amazing at what he did and made sure all area's of worry were met. He opened my eyes up to alot of things and simplified it all. I would 100% reccomend to do this course as in a short period of 3hours it was amazing how much I learnt.
Thankyou very much!!
I’ve done the First Aid training course 3 times. Today, I’ve had the best one. Thanks Serge, don’t retire! Will want to do it with you next time! πŸ™ŒπŸ½πŸ™πŸΌ
Amazing ways of teaching! Will come back for all my training!😁
Very good First Aid presentation that is lively, entertaining and gets the points across in a way that is easy to understand and take away with you, instilling confidence. Caring support staff and friendly operation in general.
Best First Aid and CPR Course ever, thanks Serge, very informative and entertaining.I highly recommend this training.Thankyou Serge, as a nurse of 35 years, I learnt heaps.
The trainer was very knowledgeable in his content and willing to explain to each member of the class. I highly recommend this training facility
Great day today with Serge, this was my third first aid training course (with different providers) and by far and away the best. It was engaging, interesting, well paced and wonderfully delivered by Serge who's wealth of knowledge and experience is always evident. With a little humour in the mix it's an easy 10 from me. Thank you for an excellent day!
High praise for Serge, he kept us entertained with stories from his two decades of experience as a regional paramedic while teaching us good effective ways to keep someone going until the professionals get there. I feel confident that I not only know what to do in an emergency to keep myself safe and the patient calm, but how to also help the paramedics take over when they arrive.
The best first aid training I have ever attended, and I have attended many.
Definitely the provider to choose if looking to do a first aid course.
If i was a Tasmanian it would be three thumbs!!!! it was up totally engaging and interesting the best 1st aid course i have ever done , Well worth the every cent < and a top bloke too .
