I recently went on one of FM First Aid courses via my new company and I couldn’t recommended them enough. Our tutor Faisal was fantastic, the way he presented was so engaging for everyone I really learnt a lot. I would love to go on more and I will defiantly be recommended this company to others. Thanks for a great First Aid Course Faisal.

I took my first aid course with Faisal and I could not recommend him more! He was patient with any questions we had and explained everything in such great detail! Will definitely do my course with him again when I need it!!

Can not recommend this company enough! The course materials were of a very high standard and Faisal welcomed and answered all of our questions with so much knowledge, taking the time to make sure we were all comfortable and confident at each stage of our course. For me, it was the perfect balance of learning important skills with the right dose of humour. Thanks Faisal

Fantastic course today. Faisal delivered the content in a fun and engaging way, gave lots of individual feedback and encouragement. The repetition of the practical stuff was really helpful and I actually feel that I might remember what I've learnt! Highly recommended.

Amazing learning experience! It's great to now have the knowledge and confidence to actually help if the situation arises. Faisal was a very good trainer with tons of insight and he was hugely patient as due to childcare issues we had to have children and a dog running around while he was teaching us. Honestly, that man has the patience of a saint and very professional! Would highly recommend! Thank you! :)

Dani Miller

Surprised to say I really enjoyed my Emergency First Aid at Work course. Faisal delivered the training in a fun but professional manner which helped me to remember the key points and hopefully not panic in a real emergency situation. I would definitely recommend FM Training and they offer good value for money compared to other training providers I have used in the past.

Alison Young

Great training course - Faisal delivered the content in an engaging way which hopefully will help me to remember everything. There was the right level of information, practical demos and humour to keep everyone's interest for the 7 hours. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Faisal.

A day I thought was going to be a boring first aid day, really wasn’t boring at all! Thoroughly enjoyed it. I had Faisal come into the work place which was great, he tailored it to our needs with being a fitness facility and really gave us a bunch of confidence if a accident was to occur. Thank you Faisal for being so helpful pre and post course also. Highly recommend

We had a fantastic session with Faisal today who explained everything thoroughly and mixed both theory and practical work brilliantly together. Faisal kept everyone in the group engaged throughout and I would highly recommend him and use him for any training needs in future.

Taking the opportunity to update my First Aid qualifications, I was hugely impressed by the professionalism and easy manner of the trainer, Faisal. He created a productive and encouraging atmosphere for a very mixed group of participants. He communicated with ease and clarity. He also offered very effective practical opportunities for us all including the use of an AED, Highly recommend FM Training to anyone seeking a knowledgeable facilitator who can successfully engage his class and encourage learning in a very important subject.

I have recently done a first aid course with Faisal. He is very knowledgeable and engages well with participants. Getting people involved in these things can be tricky but he created a good atmosphere and made sure there was enough participation and repetition for people to learn and remember the skills. Would highly recommend!

I completed a Level 3 course today with FM First Aid Training for my job, and I am very happy with how it went. The trainer I had was Faisal Mahmood, and he was extremely kind to me. I get very squeamish when anything blood-related comes up, sometimes to the point of feeling like I’m about to faint. Faisal picked up on that immediately and took me to one side to see if I was alright. With his support and encouragement, I was able to successfully complete the course. Aside from that, he explained everything clearly and professionally, let us ask all our questions, and put a humorous spin on quite a few aspects which has helped me remember them a lot better. It’s a fantastic course and I have come away feeling much more knowledgeable

I have just completed a First Aid at work level 3 training day with Faisal Mahmood as the trainer. I have completed first aid training before but this was run so that it was informative and still interesting. Faisal was very knowledgeable and able to answer any questions. There was a mix of practical and theoretical work. I have come away feeling like my own knowledge has really been refreshed and added to. Great use of equipment too such as using a defibrillator and a choking vest which provided fun learning opportunities too!

Sue Carroll

A thoroughly enjoyable course. My first aid certificate was soon to expire so Faisal’s course today made me feel confident in carrying out first aid should the need arise.

Martin Smith

19:46 03 Sep 19

An excellent course that met all our needs. Faisal made the day fly by with a good mix of practical and theory work and explained things in a superb manner. I feel confident that if I needed to implement any of the training I could. I would definitely recommend FM First Aid Training.

Jennie Wilkinson

Great first aid training. Written and practical. Covered CPR, burns, bleeding, bandages and much more. Trainer was extremely knowledgeable and interesting. Highly recommend

Just completed level 3 First Aid at work, the training was delivered by Faisal Mahmood who was excellent. It was very informative and delivered very well. He spoke clearly and made it fun too. There was plenty of opportunity to ask questions and lots of practical experiences which has helped me feel confident in delivering first aid should I ever need too. I would highly recommend!

As youth worker I am first said trained but recently becoming a new parents I was nervous of my lack of knowledge on first aid for young children and babies. Due to work and a young baby my husband and I were unable to get to evening classes locally so I contacted Faisal directly who came to our home to do the 2 hour session for us and our parents. I cannot recommend him enough. He is very professional and committed to ensuring we got what we wanted from the session and as a result we feel ready and prepared should an emergency happen. FM training is great value for money and excellent delivery.

The level 3 is thorough, interactive and really engaging. Faisal approaches the subject with complete professionalism but is able to make a difficult topic fun to learn. There's plenty of support, encouragement and opportunities to practicse the techniques during the day so that you'll leave feeling confident that you can help in a medical emergency.

Yet again another fantastic first at work course. Faisal makes first aid training fun and enjoyable and the time just fly's past. We can't recommend Faisal enough!! He is a great trainer to work with and learn from.

Penny Sadie

I found the 1 day first aid training session informative and engaging. Faisal was a very calm and knowledgeable trainer and I left the session feeling that I would be much more able to help in an emergency. Thanks.

Melissa Brown

22:06 23 May 19

Initially I was intimidated by the idea of a full day first aid course as the only newbie in my group but the session was led in an informative but laid back fashion and everything started from basics so I wasn't playing catch-up. Faisal was very thorough and knowledgeable and I learned so much in one day. Truthfully I wasn't initially looking forward to it but I was fully engaged as the session was fun, varied and interesting. Would highly recommend!

I received training from FM First Aid Training at Buckinghamshire Music Trust. This was a coherent, informative, and engaging day with clear and well-paced delivery from Faisal. One of my colleagues also mentioned that Faisal was a very good instructor during the session. Thank you. I would recommend courses from FM First Aid Training.

James Nicholls

16:25 20 May 19

Fantastic training course! Not only was Faisal a great instructor but he made the day fun as well! Highly recommend to anyone who wants to get their first aid qualifications.

I’ve been on many first aid training courses and can honestly say that this course was up there with the best of them. The course was personalized for the attendees’ work places and information was delivered in a variety of ways. I particularly liked the clever way that the information was repeated through talking, visual aids, practical exercises, written questions/answer sessions, practical assessments, refresher quick fire quizzes, and simulated scenarios. I feel the different approaches helped me recap and retain the information. In addition the approach gave everyone the opportunity to clarify any misconceptions and for Faisal to deliver the latest advice in first aid practises. This was the first time I had seen an opened DFib and welcomed the opportunity to have a go at using one in training mode on a manikin. I highly recommend Faisal, he is very knowledgeable, excellent at engaging his trainees, caring and sensitive to the information shared within the group, and professional.

A big thank you for such a fun session. It was informative, professional and relaxed and we all learnt so much in such a short space of time - we now feel so much more confident. Faisal is a fabulous instructor and he clearly loves what he does. He certainly made the course enjoyable and it was very helpful to hear about his own experiences.

This was the best first aid training I have ever been on and I’ve been on many during my working life I would highly recommend Faisal as a trainer he is super professional without being stuffy or boring he really knows his subject and is really approachable when asked any questions etc. The day was full of practical assessments which by the end of the day meant I felt so much more confident if I was to ever be in a situation where I needed to administer CPR or first aid. Thanks so much for a great day

On behalf of cloudDNA - thank you for the training Faisal! We all found the session incredibly useful and it is great that we have all become certified.

Liz Hall

19:52 06 Nov 18

Having attended first aid training previously I wasn’t expecting to enjoy the day as much as I did or to learn as much as I did. Faisal is an extremely good trainer who I would highly recommend. I came away from the course feeling quietly confident that I would know what to do in a number of situations especially CPR which we practiced and came back to several times throughout the day. Faisal was professional, friendly and sensitive to any concerns raised. It was the best First Aid course I’ve been on. I don’t feel overwhelmed with information and I feel that what I learned will stay with me.

James Patch

Having had a private training session with a group of 6 people I can highly recommend this. Not only is it necessary and ideal for work it is a great for personal us day to day for confidence in case it was ever needed. This particular session was better than others I have previously done due to Faisal and his great ability to train in a knowledgeable and efficient way. We progressed through the day, asking many questions, it was extremely useful and informative. Definitely recommend this particular course.

Emily Peasgood

A really informative and practical day of training. Faisal was a great trainer - very knowledgeable, professional and engaging. It was great to continually practise things like CPR and the recovery position. I now feel confident to respond appropriately if required. I thoroughly recommend the course. Great value compared to some of the big companies. Thanks Faisal.

Natalie Marson

I did the level 3 first aid course today. Faisal Mahmood was our trainer and he was excellent! Plenty of practical and theory work. Not boring at all. I am now confident that I could save a life if needed. Thanks again Faisal

Minella Palich

Faisal is an engaging facilitator who knows his subject matter inside and out! I had a fantastic day completing my Emergency First Aid at Work training with a small group of 11 (full class size) which meant we got plenty of practical, hands on experience. The training session was conducted in a modern, light filled office at Spaces Marlow with a deli in the building offering great food and tea/coffee. The price of Faisal's course is hard to beat as well. Highly recommended.

Simply Purple

14:44 06 Apr 18

We would recommend FM Training for your First Training. Simply Purple attended the Level 3 Emergency First Aid at Work Course on 04/04/2018 We found the trainer, Faisal, to be very knowledgeable and professional. He gave clear precise instruction. By using a number of different techniques to check our knowledge, he ensured we understood each area of the course. This gave us confidence that we would be able to use the skills learned. Thank-you FM First Aid Training

Yesterday morning I attended a First Aid course taught by Faisal. He excelled in being highly professional, engaging and thorough. In addition, and perhaps more importantly, Faisal oozed the warmth and empathy needed to make all of the attendees feel comfortable, which created an atmosphere that was perfect for learning.

I attended a First Aid course in March 2018. I found Faisal to be a fantastic trainer. He is highly dedicated to his work and has an excellent, easy to understand teaching manner. The course was very informative and I learned a great deal. I would have no reservation in recommending FM First Aid Training and will certainly undertake another similar course in the not to distant future. Vanessa White

Faisal is a very professional trainer. This is the third Emergency First Aid at Work I have been on (required as a sports coach) and it is by far the best one I have attended. Lots of practical, focused topic areas and generally enjoyable and informative. Faisal is an accomplished trainer. Highly recommended.

Nigel Allen

08:27 07 Dec 17

Excellent training. Enjoyed the course. Faisal provided excellent advice to someone who was totally new to First Aid. Would certainly recommend.

Mark Aspinwall

Faisal was an excellent trainer, very approachable and answered any questions. Have booked three of my staff on the next course after just having done my Level three with FM Training - Highly Recommended!

Anna Lamb

Excellent course. Informative and educational yet delivered in a personal and enjoyable environment. Extremely pleased I chose FM training as my first aid training provider!

Faisal has delivered first aid level 2 qualified training at my workplace, in a relaxed but very professional & knowledgeable manner. I have attended first aid courses in the past (other providers/trainers) and would probably say today was the best to date. Although the comprehensive content was serious and potentially life saving knowledge, that we all hope to not have to use, it was actually an enjoyable day. He had excellent interpersonal skills & taught us in a friendly way, that made us all feel comfortable to both ask & answer questions; bringing a humour with him & useful memory methods too. The balance between theory & practical was spot on and having repeated the most important aid several times throughout the day, by 4pm we all felt more confident and that we’d learnt a lot. Faisal was patient and went at a pace to suit us but ensured he kept us on track to professionally finish on time. We will all be recommending him. Well done Faisal & thank you FM First Aid Training!

Bethany Englefield

10:52 26 Sep 17

I found the training more than helpful. Faisal is very professional but also creates a friendly atmosphere. I hope I will never have to implement the skills I have acquired however I'm reassured in knowing I have the knowledge! I would highly recommend this course to anyone :)
