Read What Our Participants Have to Say About Their Experiences With Our Courses
Trish Le ProuDecember 19, 2024 Our organisation has been using Safe for Children for years. Cant recommend HIGHLY enough. Donna and her team are fantastic to work with, very professional, always quick to respond and provide training material which is very relevant to our industry. Deborah CocksAugust 12, 2024 I liked the welcome from Donna, I found Lyn very informative and easy to listen to. The course notes were also well-designed and so helpful" CampbelljanelucyAugust 3, 2024 I signed up for this course by myself as there was a gap in my training in health and safety, and sometimes it is easier to hear it than read it. Donna has such a lovely way of explaining things and I came away with lots to share with my team on how we can always improve on our systems and practices. Safe For Children always deliver, and if you are unable to make the online time for the course, there is the option to receive a recording to watch at a more convenient time, do the quiz and get your certificate, all in the comfort of your own home. Chris Procter-AbrahamAugust 2, 2024 "Passionate, easy to listen to speaker. Lived experience. Tons of great information and links to learn more. Good pace to the presentation" Frances BritzJuly 22, 2024 Relevant, up to date, and accessible PD on a range of specialist topics, all presented by knowledgeable and confident specialists. Each session is followed up with useful and informative documentation to enhance the learning and provide resources for future use. Highly recommend any of the many PD options! Fiona NichollsOctober 2, 2022 Great webinars that have given me many opportunities for keeping my teaching professional development updated during Covid (Child abuse/protection, Autism, ADHD, coping with challenging behaviours). Especially good to be able to access the sessions out of school hours. Would heartily recommend to all teachers and parents - this is vital information for everyone, clearly presented by people who want to help in a practical way. Jess RutherfordJune 21, 2022 A well presented, meaningful course. Very inspiring and motivating. Andrea WishnowskyOctober 7, 2021 I did the online Autism (ASD) Masterclass today and it was great! The communication leading up to the class was very good, no risk of forgetting or missing it. Despite 18 years working with children with autism, I still found the class worthwhile, and it reminded me of a few pointers I’d forgotten about and was still relevant to children I currently work with. It is driven with a positive mindset, managing children in a positive manner and designed to help understand the complex needs of someone with autism. The information was clear with clutter-free slides to support. I’m really pleased I did it! Cari MatthewsAugust 19, 2021 Donna Bouzaid and Cathy Sweet delivered an outstanding course today: "Te Reo Masterclass for Beginners". Donna's warmth and enthusiasm was so welcoming and Cathy’s course content and manner of delivery was so rich and accessible. Their Aroha for us as new learners made us really feel “he waka eke noa”. I learnt so many new kupu Māori and developed greater confidence in pronunciation. Thank you to you both and I look forward to the follow up course.Google rating score: 5.0 of 5, based on 11 reviews
