EFAW Training...

We had Kevin join us here at People's Postcode Lottery to train our team on a one-day Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) qualification. It was clear from the start of the session that Kevin had vast knowledge and experience regarding first aid. His delivery and teaching methods are really engaging and interactive which supported the group when completing group and practical exercises. I can't recommend this training highly enough and that is down to Kevin's training style and willingness to see people succeed.

This is the most impactful first aid course I have taken

This is the most impactful first aid course I have taken, haven taken away more information and value that any other course.
This is a great refresher for those who have done first aid before but are looking to learn more, and it is a fun, informative introduction to first aid for those doing it for the first time.

Skillzone -First Aid With-Kevin Lynch

The Skillzone is a very well equipped first aid learning environment with Kevin Lynch who is a very knowledgeable articulate and professional Instructor.
Having been on numerous courses before this is the first hands on practical training experience with a Defibrillator and Epi Pen .
Which has given me the confidence to use in my everyday work life if ever required .

First Aid training with Mr Kevin Lynch

Very informative course within a comfortable environment. Kevin lynch was very patient and skilled at delivering his training. I enjoyed hands on training at delivering CPR and learning lots of procedures about administering first aid. This course has definitely given me confidence and would highly recommend this training.

Kev is a genuine down to earth great guy who has a great way of teaching people through a relaxing and enjoyable environment. He has great knowledge of first aid and is keen to share that knowledge with others. His techniques of showing how to do first aid is flawless and well executed. He explained everything really well and has given me the knowledge and confidence to help someone who is in need of first aid.

Fabulous First Aid training from Kev

Fabulous First Aid training from Kev, made me feel very relaxed when I was anxious about everything I had to learn. He made learning fun, easy and enjoyable bringing all participants in the group together where we had a common goal. The atmosphere was one of open questions and nothing was an issue especially when some of us needed elements of the training repeated. I didn’t think for one moment in my past that I would ever be a First Aider yet here I am thanks to Kev.

Review

Kev is a great guy with tremendous talent and attitude. A Thoughtful, sympathetic guy who’s shows empathy when required. Students feel at ease during his session and take a huge amount of information in from Kev, using his own experiences as examples. Keep up the good work.

Instructor Lesson Observation

I had to do a lesson observation as part of his external moderation process as an instructor, I was very impressed with his subject matter knowledge, attention to detail, and the overall standards of the venue, Kevin has went above and beyond to make the course relaxing, informative and above all else enjoyable, I would recommend to anyone looking for a realistic First Aid experience, to contact Kevin at the Skillzone.

Shout out to Skillzone

Firstly Kevin is a gifted public speaker and knows how to put a team at ease, me and my colleagues will no longer will feel anxious in a first aid situation. I feel everyone should have at least a basic knowledge in this area! Skillzone delivers the info and skills in an informative yet fun way. 10 out of 10.

1st aid training

I enjoyed it. Not too much reading on the slides, you kept it engaging. I get quite bored with trainers that don’t engage but was interested kept focused. Practical parts were fun, thought the bell activity was a good idea, kept us on our toes n kept the mood upbeat. Spot on, really enjoyed the day and meeting Kevin.
