    "Adam and crew made this training fun and most importantly hit on all topics that were very informational. They didn’t skip a beat and kept the entire class engaged through out the entire training. These guys are a must hire for all CPR/AED trainings."

    "Great, friendly instructors! They came to our office in Indiana to do on-site training in our professional office environment and did a fantastic job. As a firefighter/ first responder already, it was nice to have the refresher course available to me. I loved how they were open and honest about real- life situations and encouraged discussions, rather than only showing videos. Would definitely recommend."
