Manual Handling Training

From my personal point of view I thought the course was excellent and well delivered by Alan.  I would recommend it to anyone who was considering doing the same course.

I thought everything went well. The trainer Alan Reed has a good commercial sense that sometimes certain manual handling tasks are unavoidable and we just have to find the safest way of doing a particular job.

I have seen some trainers who just say 'you shouldn't be doing that' and Alan discussed the task with the employees and worked out what should be done.

So very good from a business point of view.

What did you like about our trainer’s delivery?

 

Alan’s delivery of the course was fantastic, the communication was excellent and his knowledge on the training was by far one of the best we have had here. All attending the course with Alan praised him highly and every question asked was answered with no hesitation.The training is highly recommended by us all.

 

What areas does our trainer need development in teaching skills?

We were more than happy with the skills displayed.

​

Were there any times that there were challenging attendees, & if so, how did our trainer manage them?

 

We had a trainee that was struggling with writing, but Alan ensured that a multiple choice assessment could be conducted which suited the employee.

 

Can we make improvements to the course structure, organisation, presentation & delivery?

 

Again apart from trying to ensure that we could remember everything in the 2 days, the course was the best we have had on site and will highly recommend to our other sites.

​Just a quick not to say thanks very much for your excellent course. I was particularly impressed with your refreshing attitude to the problems in our manual handling environment and the exercises you gave me to assist in my daily routine. Though sceptical initially you certainly gave me some valuable advice which I will be putting into practice in my everyday work and home life.

Attendee feedback:

 

What did you find most helpful & why?

Explanation on how and why using wrong handling techniques damage our body and the lasting effect that has on us. I though the content and training were very good.

The way the course was presented, by an experienced person instead of the usual HR type. I found it was adaptive and helpful to learn with plenty of resources that we can use and pass on. I have re-read the course notes and watched the videos again and it's helped me to deliver back to my colleagues.
