This was my second training with Take Action CPR, and it was even better than the first. Bob is incredibly knowledgeable, and I walked away having learned so much, and had a lot of fun in the process!
We had Bob as our instructor and our class was great he made class fun and made sure that we understood everything. Class was very informative and hands on. We look forward to having Bob as our instructor again.
Jonathan and Barb did an amazing job covering a lot of material in a relatively short amount of time. Presentation of the material is clear and left me feeling more prepared to act in the case of an emergency.
Our team had a spectacular experience with Take Action CPR. Barb was organized and informative from our initial interaction and Jonathan was an engaging and highly professional instructor. 10/10 recommend!
Bob was the best CPR renewal we've ever had! Super practical and he made it fun for the office as well. Look forward to his renewal soon!
The class was very informative. Sebastian did a great job of going into detail. I definitely enjoyed the class. Now I know how to perform proper CPR.
We had a great CPR training session with Bob from Take Action CPR! He was incredibly engaging, knowledgeable, and made the training fun and interactive. Highly recommend Bob and Take Action CPR for any training needs!
I've taken many CPR classes over the years, and none have been nearly as comprehensive as this class. It was thorough, engaging, interactive, and I learned new information!
