AI summary of reviews

Consistently knowledgeable, patient and engaging trainers are the provider’s clearest strength, making complex theory accessible through humour, real-life examples, discussion and hands-on practice. Attendees value the safe, supportive atmosphere, clear explanations, thoughtful adaptations and opportunities to ask questions and repeat techniques until confident. Courses are generally well structured and paced, with useful breaks, and learning transfers directly to workplace practice and everyday situations; a few attendees find some sessions longer or more repetitive than necessary.

Was again very engaging, Barry did amazing with the presentations of break aways and gave us a really good understanding. Making the warm up fun and engaging, making us switch on enough to pick the break aways up fast.

A really great course delivered by a highly competent trainer Ben. More than just learning the techniques. Lots of theory and reflection around proactive strategies. I really enjoyed the day.

I would highly recommend this behaviour training. It provided a comprehensive understanding of how to recognise early indicators of escalating behaviour, identify potential triggers, and implement appropriate proactive strategies to de-escalate situations before physical intervention becomes necessary. The training was informative, practical, and delivered to an exceptionally high standard. The trainers demonstrated a wealth of knowledge, professionalism, and a clear commitment to ensuring that all participants developed the skills and confidence required to manage challenging situations safely, effectively, and with dignity. What particularly stood out was the trainers’ willingness to go above and beyond what was expected of them. Their dedication, patience, and commitment to ensuring that everyone fully understood the principles and practices covered were evident throughout. They demonstrated genuine passion for their work and a clear understanding of the importance of prevention, early intervention, and the use of the least restrictive approaches wherever possible. Their professionalism and dedication made a significant contribution to the overall quality of the training. It was evident that their priority was not simply to deliver the course, but to ensure that participants left with valuable knowledge and practical skills that could be applied confidently in real-world situations. A truly outstanding training experience, delivered with exceptional commitment, professionalism, and dedication. The trainers went above and beyond expectations, and their efforts are a credit to their profession. My sincere thanks and appreciation for the quality of the training and the genuine commitment they demonstrated throughout. I have been teaching 26 years and this has been by far the best training experience I have had. I wasn’t looking forward to it at all. A round trip of 68 miles per day to be disappointed. This was not the case, I was ‘hooked’! I am actually sorry it has come to an end. These trainers are a credit to the company! Thank You Liam and Ben 😊

Response: Thank you, Alison, for such a thoughtful and generous review! To hear that this stood out across your 26 years in teaching is an incredible compliment. We’re especially delighted that a course you initially felt hesitant about became one you were sorry to finish. Liam and Ben will be absolutely thrilled to read your words. They put so much care into helping people understand the thinking behind the approaches and feel ready to apply their learning with compassion and confidence. Having that effort recognised means a great deal. Thank you for making the journey each day and for recommending us so warmly. We’d love to welcome you back! 😊

A great course covering everything around PBS, de-escalation techniques, focusing on traumas and the arousal cycle. Both trainers were exceptional and delivered the training professionally and always checking in with us. Good to always refresh my skills and knowledge.
