Great day spent at LifeShield! Kyle is an excellent instructor, and shares amazing stories and asks thoughtful questions that kept everyone engaged. I really appreciated that Kyle tailored the session to the professions of the students/professionals he had that day! At no point was I bored during the course. Amazing instruction! 🙂

Erin was our teacher. She was fantastic- very clear and taught in a way that we were able to easily recall the information. She put everyone at ease. She also gave time for questions and listened well to everyone. The space was very well managed in our pandemic time. Everything was cleaned and wiped down per government protocols! WELL DONE ERIN!!!!

Our instructor, Kim, was phenomenal. She kept everyone so well engaged and gave amazing encouragement. No-one felt dumb or embarrassed when it came to doing the demos or answering/asking questions. She created a GREAT, NONJUDGMENTAL environment. I left the two days of training feeling confident that I could help save a life if faced with that situation..

Kyle is a fantastic instructor. Very educational, relevant and informative. I would recommend this course to anyone and everyone who would like to feel more confident understanding what to do in an emergency. The best CPR/First Aid/BLS course I've attended by far!

In all honesty, this was one of the best BLS-HCP training sessions I've attended. The instructor possessed a wealth of in-the-field knowledge that was invaluable. And what was most refreshing about the session was that we walked through "what" we do in a scenario but also "why" we do it... Class and equipment were clean, social distancing was maintained. Would highly recommend LifeShield.

Larry is an awesome instructor. His use of humour, visuals, repetition, and participant engagement is refreshing; and conducive to a great learning environment. I have to recertify CPR-C annually, and I learned a few new things I am pretty sure I hadn’t heard before. Great job!
