Testimonials
Fantastic course! Really enjoyed it and learned a ton! 🙂
Working case scenarios was a brilliant way to set examples!
I think first aid should be like riding a bicycle or learning to swim; you should only need to learn it once in your lifetime – This class was very good! Loved it!! 🙂
An incredibly huge thank you to Debbie for the course that she provided our employees with! She made it fun and gave us real life scenarios. You can tell she was passionate about the information, and all of us walked away confident in our abilities to help administer first aid.
Catapult Environmental Inc. recently contracted Debbie Chene to conduct an in-house Red Cross First Aid/CPR Training. Catapult incorporates safety as a core value in our daily operations, and would like to thank Debbie for what I believe as one of the best real life First Aid Training/CPR courses I have ever taken in my 20+ years in the oil and gas sector. Debbie was able to bring the training to a level that I know will impact and potentially save a life. Her training made it simple to remember what’s truly important for a First Aider, the ABC’s.
Thank you Debbie for your training expertise and impacting each and everyone at Catapult Environmental Inc. Your course has given us both the basic skills and the confidence to potentially change the outcome of an unfortunate event.
Loved all the interaction and enthusiasm! 🙂
Great course and presentation! Easy to digest information.
Very informative fun class. Thank you!
Class was great! Best First Aid course I’ve attended!
The class was fun and very engaging! I learned a lot.
Loved her way of teaching, enthusiasm and the Jeopardy game. Overall the course was fantastic!
What a difference creativity makes! Our employees are used to the same old First Aid Class where they can hardly wait for it to end. Debco’s training class was unique in presentation, using props to create realistic trauma situations. As a result the employees were more engaged in the class and all walked away feeling like they actually received quality training. For the first time the word to other employees will be “you should take that training if you can” not, “it was just the same boring training we always get”. Thank you Debco – you are “FIRST CLASS” with Blue-Con Excavating Ltd.
Great Class! Best I’ve ever been to.
When entering the room and meeting Debbie the instructor, she made the class feel warm and made it easy to learn with the subjects at hand. When asked a question about something, if she didn’t have the answer, she would have it pretty quick. She is very easy to deal with and also made it fun to learn. I had never taken first aid before, and I felt it was focused on the topics of first aid and learning how to save someone’s life when needed. Debbie is a great teacher and has a lot of information in the matters of first aid. She knows how to slow someone down to ensure the student knows what to do without panicking when someone needs help. I would take the course again if Debbie was the trainer.
This was the funnest First Aid course I’ve ever taken! Great refresher, Thanks!
Thanks for the best first aid course I have ever had! Loved the real scenarios and thinking through the skills.
This was the best First Aid course I’ve ever been in! You kept our attention – good job! Thank you!
Ms. Debbie is a terrific instructor. I love how hands on this course was. She kept the class motivated, active, interesting and fun at the same time. I finished the course feeling completely confident with what I learned.
Best class ever! Very interactive.
Really great presentation with lots of relevant scenarios and info. Really liked the personality of the instructors, the humor and for providing us with real life demonstrations!
Instructor was extremely knowledgeable, made the course super fun, interesting and motivating!
Debbie makes the course interesting & enjoyable. Encourages questions and is extremely engaging. Her personal experiences add to the effectiveness. Thank you!
Great course! The time just flew by! Deb kept it interesting by having lots of practice and different situations that might occur.
Thanks again for a really enjoyable class!
Firstly, I would like to thank Debbie for the fantastic session that was delivered – I was really impressed. Debbie was very friendly, and it was obvious that she was extremely knowledgeable and confident in delivery of the session and answering any questions that were given to her. The length of the training was perfect, and she was able to keep everyone engaged. I feel very confident about what I have learnt. The training was well delivered by Debbie and tailored to meet my need and she kept it fun and interactive.
Debbie is absolutely amazing! Extremely professional and knowledgeable. Great to have a member of the Cottonwood family teaching us skills! 🙂
Debbie was very engaging and knowledgeable. Really enjoyed the story telling!
I loved how hands-on the course was, especially the scenarios.
The class was great! Deb & Devan were clear & thorough and made it fun for us all! Thank you for your time today.
Best course yet! Great scenario training. Awesome Job!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate you putting on the course for us on such short notice. It was fantastic!
Fantastic & enthusiastic instructor! Highly recommended.
The course was presented in a very interactive and intuitive manner. Very well done!
It was absolutely interesting! I never realized how important first aid is. I was very thankful that you gave personal stories of situations that you came upon. I thought it must’ve been very hard for you to talk about them. So I want to thank you for sharing. Honestly I have no negative points at all. I’m very grateful that you have chosen this path it really does show your passion.
Great Enthusiasm, great examples, cool attitude; very tolerant of horseplay which ironically made folks listen more.
I really learned a lot in this course and feel confident I can do something if a situation happens in front of me. I appreciate Debbie, you are amazing!
You were super energetic and great to learn from!
This was the best first aid I’ve attended. It was more detailed, hands-on and lively!
This course helped me be more confident to help others in need!
I really enjoyed how she explained everything and made it really easy and fun. Really caught my attention on ways to save someone’s life.
Very good class, liked the hands on training the best – gives you better confidence in acting in a true situation. Great Job Deb!
Debbie is an excellent instructor! Very informed & professional.
Deb was able to bring first aid to life with great hands-on exercises and great interaction from start to finish. People learn in a variety of ways and Deb used multiple complementary methods to keep us engaged, she added humour and personal experience, and made the two days a great investment for us all. Well done!
Debbie kept the class interesting with plenty of practical skills & scenario demonstrations. Great class!!
Applying what we learned into scenario situations was awesome! I hear…I may forget, I see…I may remember, when I apply the skills…I do understand!
Debbie, Thanks again for the wonderful training session. We all enjoyed it and learned so much!
I enjoyed the scenarios and how they allow you to see what things would be like in a real life emergency setting. I thoroughly enjoyed it and learned a lot!!
Very informative and interactive course!
I really liked the individual scenarios that tested all the skills together. Really great!
The course was excellent! One of the best I’ve had in years!
Awesome course! Kept us engaged.
Awesome class! Very fun!
Super fun class. Very interactive!
Fantastic course! Fun with the scenarios and props. Jeopardy game was a blast too!
We had an amazing day with Debbie. She made the subject matter easier to understand and not so overwhelming. I felt she gave us 110% and did a great job! I highly recommend Debbie’s class.
Wow! What a great course. I had never taken a first aid course before and I was shocked with what I didn’t know. Debbie was a great instructor, the scenarios were realistic, and it truly gets you prepared for situations you can encounter any day. It was also incredible timing as I was preparing to be a new dad and I feel so much better (same with his mom) having this training before he was born just in case anything were to happen. I highly recommend Debbie for this course and your confidence will increase after you take it.
Thank you!
Great class! Would recommend to anyone.
Great Class! with review and highlights on major safety points.
Best First Aid instructor I’ve ever had!
