Shout out to Casey for making the first aid course probably the most fun 90 minutes Ive ever spent in Osbourne park.

Very inflexible, system wouldn't let me complete online training.I arrived on the day and was turned away, was unable to complete practical and sort theory later, even though I'd previously completely the course multiple times.Rude staff onsite too, wouldn't even hear me out, just repeated the same sentence, cutting me off.Unable to refund.Don't use them place. More hassle than its worth

One of the better places that I have done first aid & CPR related training at. The trainer was good and they try your best do give you quality training.

Shout out to Alicia who, pardon the pun, completely breathed life into teaching First Aid! Courses like First Aid and CPR aren't particularly 'exciting' for anyone, but Alicia's fresh approach, knowledge and bubbly presentation of the course really brought it to life and kept students engaged and informed. Can't recommend her enough! The course itself was a few hours of theory online and then a few hours of practical assessment in person - really convenient. Thanks guys!

The whole of the training experience was quite informative. From receiving all our material to learn online to where we could park was a nice touch. Our instructor Jodie made the whole day enjoyable and informative as she allowed us the opportunity to discuss how we could take what we learnt and use it in our work environment. Overall I would have no hesitation in recommending RTS.

Although odd location the email sent out prior to course gave clear instructions on available free parking and directions. Offices were clean, all staff friendly and thoroughly enjoyed the CPR refresher by Casey Malone - very efficient with getting through the contents and demonstrations. Certificate came out within an hour and will come back again. Cheers

Best CPR and LV Rescue training course I have attended. High energy, on point conversations make the training engaging and fun.Tip - type RTS training into maps not the address, easier to find.

Had a good laugh to lighten the mood! Practical was easy to do and adequate supply of resources. Factual, to the point and relevant!(12/01/22) I've just done my first aid refresher (HLTAID012 - Child Care First Aid) with RTS and I love how they never fail to impress me! I can't recommend this RTO enough. Content is context relevant and Casey was great at connecting with all participants! Instead of dreading renewals, I always look forward to them! Even better now that more content can be accessed online for training. Keep it up guys!

Wasn't easy to find. Took me 10 minutes along drake st to finally find the roof top parking.. Would have been a whole lot easier to say the roof top parking it is approx X metres from Scarborough beach road on the right. Would have made it much easier. The unit is actually a fair way from Scarborough beach rd, closer to Howe st.However, apart from that, the course was great, informative. First time i did it like this, mostly online then prac class session.

Excellent trainer and training course. The prework was detailed and a good refresher. The in class training was great too. I was lucky enough to be in a class of my own but even with a couple more people (as there is a 3 person limit for advanced resus) it would have been good. All elements were covered and we even finished early. Thanks Alicia and RTS :)

A training service that is straight to the point! Only the important practicals to refresh your skills and jog your memory from the online learning. You get in, you get done and your out. Very happy.Would be nice if they could be registered with a construction or training fund so that workers could get a rebate.

The best ever. Better than any training facility. Quick, professional and simple. I won't forget my training because it was taugh in a fast and efficient way. Other training providers got it completely wrong thinking that writing papers all day or being interrogated and tested is the way but that only builds pressure and confusion. Welcome to the new way of grasping knowledge and learning first aid. Best provider ever and the price is worth it because its not too cheap or too expensive. The cheap providers make you sit all day and the expansive ones also. RTS is a perfect balance

I completed my Provide first Aid and CPR with Alicia on Friday 1/10/2021. I found the session extremely informative. Alicia was very knowledgeable, approachable and she supplied lollipops. Online learning was very easy to follow and learn from. Highly recommend RTS Training Group to everyone wanting to learn First Aid and CPR.

I attended the CPR refresher course and everything was so smooth and professional. The trainer took us through everything we needed to know and I learnt a couple of things I had never heard of before. Will definitely go back for my next yearly refresher!

I am proud of RTS Training Group. I had the opportunity to refresh my first aid and also CPR course. I also give thanks to Casey for her time and passion to equip me with the necessary current learning skills. She teaches with passion and able to reach people with English as their second Language. Casey also respect diversity and teach with wisdom and knowledge. I therefore entreat all those who are looking forward to complete their first aid and CPR course, to register with RTS Training Group. They are the best in WA.

Casey was lovely, very approachable and took away all the nerves I had for the day. She had a great sense of humor combined with a lot of knowledge and real world situations. Being able to do the learning content online and the practical assessment in person was also a great benefit to fit around my work schedule. Definitely recommend the courses here!
