Australian Training Institute (NSW)

They lost my assignment work so I paid and did it all for nothing. Be very careful with this company and make sure you don’t do any live videos for the assessment and that you pre-record everything in case they lose your work.

A First Class Learning Environment – . Verity was a true professional and made everyone feel at ease. Her subject knowledge and teaching process was second to none. I thoroughly enjoyed my time and came away with renewed knowledge of the CPR process

Amazing – My instructor, Tash was amazing. Fantastic training! Very friendly and helpful. Training is very detailed and relevant to selected course. 10/10 would recommend this training institute

Highly Recommend – I Had Tash, She was Fantastic, full of energy, very informative, Tash made the training very enjoyable and fun.

Excellent training and outstanding trainer – I completed a CPR update and Tash was my trainer. I was impressed how quickly Tash made me feel comfortable and capable of completing the assessment. Tash is very knowledgeable and presented the information in an easy to understand method. I really enjoyed when positive feedback was given while the learning and assessment was being performed.

Highly recommended – I completed my CPR refresher course with Tash. Tash is extremely knowledgeable and whilst learning, she made the course enjoyable and loads of fun.

Informative First Aid – Tash was fantastic informative and passionate. Will do this course again. What a great teacher.

Simply the best! – As a recent participant in a first aid course with the Australian Training Institute, I can honestly say it was truly incredible. From the moment I walked into the training facility, I was greeted by friendly staff member who made me feel at ease and excited about the course. One of the first things that impressed me was how interactive the… Read more

course was. Gone are the days of sitting in a classroom listening to a lecturer drone on and on. The Australian Training Institute's first aid course was hands-on, engaging, and tailored to suit various learning styles. We were actively involved in practical exercises, role-plays, and group discussions. This interactive approach not only made the learning process enjoyable, but also ensured that the knowledge and skills we acquired were easily retained.

The trainer assigned to our course was simply the best I have ever encountered. His expertise, passion, and ability to deliver complex information in a clear and concise manner was truly commendable. He had a wealth of real-world experience, which they seamlessly incorporated into the course content, making it relevant and practical. Our trainer was incredibly patient and answered every question thoroughly, ensuring we fully understood the concepts being taught.

The course covered a wide range of first aid topics, including CPR, wound management, fracture immobilization, and emergency response procedures. The content was comprehensive, and the practical scenarios allowed me to apply theoretical knowledge effectively. It was reassuring to know that I was being trained by an expert who took the time to ensure that I would be confident and capable of handling various emergency situations.

Overall, my experience with the Australian Training Institute's first aid course was exceptional. It exceeded all my expectations, and I left feeling empowered and equipped with life-saving skills. I wholeheartedly recommend this course to anyone seeking high-quality first aid training. The Australian Training Institute truly sets the benchmark for excellence in first aid education.

ATI - Aweseome Training Course – My son and I completed our White Card with ATI, they were very professional and great to work with.

Excellent First Aid training – This first aid training course was very informative and useful and introduced new information that enhanced my first aid knowledge. Yalcin was a great instructor who engaged in discussions with us which helped us to understand the concepts more easily.

Practical and useful First Aid Course with an amazing instructor! – Very engaging training course packed with practical and relevant information and life-saving tips that I feel will really help prepare me for my future career. Yalcin was a great instructor who provided valuable information, answering our questions and concerns, and made the course engaging. The skills and theoretical knowledge were clearly covered in enough detail so that we understood the key ideas.

Provide First Aid at Hurstville – I did the First Aid course with Natasha (Tash) at ATI Hurstville and I truly loved it. Natasha is a great teacher. I haven't only learnt many things but I actually enjoyed the whole day.

Truly awful – I did a first aid course today and it was truly awful. Our trainer, Tony, kept interrupting people while they were talking, including when the person was answering a question Tony had just asked that person. He started the day with atrocious comments and generalisations about people's cultural heritage. He got people to come out the front to… Read more

show what they would do in a certain situation, then stopped them about 5 seconds in and said, No, then took over, leaving the poor person standing there feeling like a goose.

On the incident form, he said to circle gender. I asked if we needed to write 'gender' or 'sex at birth'. He said, 'I just want you to write down their gender - male or female. That's all I want.' I saw a comment above, about him asking what a person's favourite food was, for the Choking section. That happened with us - twice - they said they liked sushi - to the first person, he said, How about we make it Thai?, and to the second, he said, Let's make it steak.

Medically, he said, ‘acetone’ instead of ‘asystole’, ‘defibalator’ instead of ‘defibrillator’ and ‘tracheotomy’ instead of ‘tracheostomy’, and talked about ‘Ventolin’ instead of ‘puffer (not all reliever drugs are Ventolin, and Ventolin is a brand name, not a drug name – short answer, not everyone uses Ventolin). And he said (I kid you not), ‘If they’ve got a spinal injury, we don’t touch them.’ Even after I asked for clarification, that, surely we would immobilise the head and neck, he said, yes, sure, but, if they’ve got a spinal injury, we don’t touch them.’

On an annoying point, Tony kept saying, ‘Is that clear?’ after giving information, in a slightly-too-loud voice, and then, again in a slightly-too-loud voice, ‘Write it down,' when he wanted us to take particular note.

And he also asked me to 'put away your computer; I just want you to focus on what I'm saying', even though I was just taking notes.

With a finishing time of 3:30pm, he announced, at 2:30, that we don't have time to go into cuts and burns, but we could stay back if we wanted to. Then, at 2:40, we were finished. Except that at the end he said that he just wanted to make sure he had all our names spelt right. Someone said, No, mine’s not right. Tony answered, interrupting them, that they’d have to tell the people out the front. (As in, not his problem.)

Also, they didn’t give us a feedback form to complete. (Maybe they already knew what they might say…)

Oh, and the disabled toilet was locked, so I had to wait for them to call the building manager, to come and open it. (But I was first told that the building manager would be happy meet me on a different floor, and open that toilet.) (I know this is possibly not within ATI’s control, but still… Don’t do this course if you have a mobility impairment and might be busting for the toilet.)

First Aid course at Campbeltown – I did the First Aid course today with Natasha (Tash) at Campbelltown. Ive never done a First Aid course before so wasn’t sure what to expect. I learnt so much and enjoyed the whole day all thanks to Natasha !

Excellent – Today, I did the First Aid course with Yalcin as our school requires this every year. He is an excellent teacher. His assistance was a nice lady as well. They are very serious about their work. They care about time and make a good use of it. The most important thing is that they do not tell old silly stories to make audience laugh and to waste… Read more

time. The participants' evaluations were genuine and were not given unless you deserve to pass. The CPR equipments were all advanced as they gave light indicators if you doing the job accurately or not which was very helpful. Covid safe was linked to the content very well and to the last update of NSW health institution.

Be careful – I did certificate 3, 2 years ago and finished 1 year ago. But I have never get certificate. I don't know why. Teachers were terrible as well. Very poor training.

Great First Aid Course with Australian Training Institute – I did the First Aid course with Yalcin. He is an excellent teacher. Helpful and instructive. The structure and layout of the course is excellent, whereby you complete the Online Workbook first and attend the class for practical work and knowledge refreshment. Great experience, fantastic service. Highly recommended Australian Training Institute and especially the teacher, Yalchin.

Accommodating and welcoming – I’ve sat the class with Yolcin and my 14 year old son with adhd anxiety and Aspergers did first aid , Yolcin was very kind and considerate of my son but also light hearted and funny with a fab personality . If you like dry boring people don’t do this course, I loved it so did my son . We will be back . Very enjoyable , Yolcin is passionate about what he does and full of info

Beware of policies – I have used ATI multiple times but this time I had an injury that prevented me attending the course and I wanted to change the date. Called ATI two days prior to course and told I would need a doctors certificate, explained that I could not drive my car to doctors as I was on crutches and that doctors will not email certificates. Explained that I… Read more

did not want to cancel but change the date but supervisor was adamant no doctors certificate means no changes. I lost my money and will never use them again.

Lacks professionalism - low teaching standard - very basic content – If you’re looking for a Professionally delivered course with respectful & proficient instruction this is not the course for you!! This is especially true if you’ve had a lot of experience with First Aid Courses & have a broad frame of reference. Although it’s a very basic and inexpensive course definitely choose St John Ambulance training for a… Read more

MUCH higher standard of training and content delivery. The owners at Aust Training Institute are all related too so it’s also futile to provide any negative feedback to them directly. [name removed] (the owner) approached his role in a very flippant manner and not at all professionally. He commenced on a very negative note saying that the course was boring & that he would try to get through it as quickly as possible. How disrespectful of a training process that could potentially save a life!! He was arduously trying to be funny instead of focusing on delivering the content with a sincere, professional & proficient communication style. He firstly regaled anecdotes about his mother and this wife; very inappropriate in a teaching environment and quite insulting for those poor ladies. At one point he pretended to resuscitate a demonstration mannequin torso that did not have a head attached to it. Again very disrespectful of the training process & of human life and was in extremely poor taste; very inappropriate. He was also condescending and sexist towards the younger male & female participants in the group and perpetuated gender stereotypes in some of his hypothetical incident story lines & explanations regarding first aid provision. Appalling!! Additionally, whenever he was questioned about the content, or about his demeanour, he rolled his eyes after answering while the questioner had their head down writing notes. Disgraceful! He smirked & murmured smug sarcastic comments under his breath in response to very valid observations from some of the participants in the group and when he was challenged about his gender biased/sexist comments he then appeared to have a problem when referring to the injured person (as he described a first aid scenario). Saying sarcastically: “I don’t know now… should I say he or she”…This was a completely misplaced & irrelevant comment and again said in a sardonic manner. He could’ve simply used the terms “casualty” or the “patient”, when referring to an injured party; that is what a professional trainer would’ve done. Towards the end of the training his energy level had plummeted and he became increasingly annoyed when asked questions about the exam or any other question which challenged his opinion. Clearly very emotionally immature and needs to be counselled about these issues regarding professional teaching. Yalcin ought to seriously consider his behavioural choices if he continues to teach in this field and focus on being Professional, Sincere, Genuine and Respectful to all the participants as well as to this very important topic of First Aid.

Very informative course. Highly recommend – Very informative and helpful. Friendly and open attitude towards questions and sharing information. Relevant information shared. Excellent course to make you feel prepared for emergency situations. Highly recommend to a friend!

Very educational first aid course – Was a fun day, informative and clear course. Instructor was funny and easy to communicate with, practical component was also good, clean equipment and clean training rooms. Good value for money. Would recommend

First aid made simple and fun with Jake! – After my mum attended this course with the instructor Jake, I also attended with high expectations which were easily met. Jake made the training very relatable and had an interactive approach that left plenty of space for questions. We finished the course with plenty of time to spare but covered every topic well. I never knew learning about first… Read more

aid could be so fun too! I also no longer have any anxiety about attempting first aid, it's about trying and giving that person a chance at life that matters the most.

Most in depth first aid course i have ever attended. Yalcin was very knowledgeable and friendly. All – Teaching was very clear, detailed and comprehensive.Engaging and interactive instructor. Very impressed with level of detail and knowledge of educator. would highly recommend and return for refresher. Difficulty level was average. Need to participate and have the required knowledge to pass but not very hard to do so.

Highly recommended – Just had my first aid and cpr training. Jake made the subject as interesting as possible. The training focused on relevant skills which helps me identify ways to build on my current knowledge and skills. Overall, I a.m. satisfied with my training.

Excellent course! – I enjoyed this course and learnt a lot, Yalcin Or is excellent, explains everything very well and encourages you to ask questions and participate. I highly recommend it, and make sure you book it with Yalcin, although I’m sure the other guys are good too, i just speak from my experience in his class. :)

Fun and engaging – I have just done my security course and have found the course to cover everything I expected and it was also fun.

Great course, would recommend! – Have had a great experience and plenty of education in first aid training, Yalcin made the whole process enjoyable and great demonstrations

Excellent – Great course and excellently demonstrated and taught by Yalcin. I learnt more from Yalcin than the 3 other times combined when i have done my first aid training.

I don't recommend ATI – I work at a large public swimming pool and did a first aid and cpr course at ATI to get a more responsible job. I found the ATI instructor pretty arrogant and not very helpful. I just wanted to learn. I was not very satisfied with what I learnt there and ended up doing a full first aid training course at St Johns which met my requirements. Close to where I live.
