Testimonials — reactions from past course attendees


Great to have a course taught by someone with credibility from real world experience of trauma.  Bruce has the ability to translate book knowledge on trauma into understandable concepts for all.  I so appreciate his ability to instruct such a difficult topic with humour that allows for greater learning.  An awesome instructor.

Bruce said this was a “life skill” course.  Absolutely correct.  As a counsellor, I wish I had gotten this course in training there.  Nothing like it and there certainly should be.

The most important training I have ever taken as a fire fighter.  It opened my eyes to understanding the impact of trauma in my life at work and at home.  So vital to have an instructor so experienced and passionate about helping anyone who has to deal with trauma in the workplace.

Please invite Bruce to come back.  The best instructor I have ever had.  The course material was delivered with humour, passion and compassion.  Everyone I spoke with was astonished with his ability to make you feel he was teaching just for you.  I would take any training class delivered by him.
