    The training was great, our staff was very impressed and felt everyone was able to learn new information. Some of the guys told me they were really surprised with the electrical safety part and really enjoyed learning CPR. They were very appreciative that they learned things they can also implement at home with their families. Phil and Jose's expertise and engaging teaching style made the safety training informative and enjoyable. They delivered CPR training with clarity and patience. Our employees feel much more confident and prepared to handle emergencies. I am newer to the safety and compliance manager role and was thoroughly impressed. I would like to build a relationship moving forward with Cardinal for our yearly training and future OSHA training.

    Michaela and Jeff were both great instructors, knowledgeable and informative. Michaela in particular made things as fun as possible. I did feel the some of the exercises were excessive...I wish we would have spent more time on the decision-making part, and how to deploy boom, track spills, etc.

    The instructors were very knowledgeable and experienced which made it easier for them to teach the lecture portion of the class without making it too tedious. The hands-on portion was very interesting. We were given tasks to perform while wearing various types of PPE. The jobs were designed to give us a sense of how hard it is to perform simple tasks while wearing high levels of PPE.

Jeff came out on time for the date of the inspection, did a thorough and informative inspection with all staff, and provided a detailed and comprehensive report to sum up [the findings of] our inspection. Great job Jeff and team!

    My CPR training with Michaela MacRitchie was an outstanding experience. From getting registered. to the digital content to the in-person session, it was informative and professional. Michaela is an exceptional and natural teacher who provides one on one help to make sure students grasp the material and process. Her infusion of personal experiences and stories really help to understand, remember and use CPR techniques.

    Michaela was an awesome teacher. She made everything very easily understandable and was more than open to questions. When I brought up some concerns regarding the suits and health issues initially there was some push back. But the following day I was able to work with her, Rich, and my boss to come to a solution. From then on, she was more than flexible, and attentive to my needs. She continually encouraged and pushed my class to think critically for the best possible result. Jeff had a lot of helpful real-world experience which was a great additive to course. Though I wish he would've broken down some of the topics a little more.

I really felt the scenarios that applied the content is what really got folks engaged really made the training worthwhile. That is when it all started clicking and having the presenter walk around talking through it with us was helpful. Overall, glad our supervisors and managers attended the training.
