I attended an Emergency First Aid at Work Course, it was delivered very well and I would definitely recommend this business for training. Ottilia was very patient with everyone and kept going over things until everyone on the course fully understood. I really enjoyed the course I attended and I feel confident applying the knowledge which I was taught. More...

As a police officer I received many first aid updates. Most by large companies. I found many of them to be minimum standard. Or just sufficient to tick a box. I found pochat training very well prepared and presented. Covering much more than my previous courses. I highly recommended this training to business or private individual.

Very happy with the H&S course I attended yesterday, very thorough, well paced with well managed break times and non paper based activities to break up the day. Ottilia was very professional and personable and had a great understanding of the subject matter, I have to complete a few different courses a year through work and some can unfortunately feel like tick box exercises, I came away from yesterday with a better understanding and the knowledge that it will make a difference in my workplace, so thank you. The course location at Chesterfield was easy to find, plenty of free parking attached, tea and coffee on tap and a box full full of biscuits - what more could you want? Thank you Ottilia for your patience. More...

Over the years I’ve attended several First Aid courses but although they were all useful this is the first time I’ve actually enjoyed one! I’d definitely recommend Pochat Training, in fact I’ve just booked a place on the CitizenAid training. The Chesterfield (Whittington) venue was easy to find and had free onsite parking which is always a bonus. More...

Ottilia did a practical session at a recent 4Networking meeting which was lots of fun, she demonstrated a great deal of knowledge and understanding but in a very easy to replicate manner. Learning through doing and whilst having a good time is a great way to learn some really important life skills - get her in every school!!, this training needs to be on the curriculum for all kids!!

What do you love most about your job?
I love teaching, and the fact that I can both teach and save lives at the same time is just a great combination!
What inspired you to start your own business?
As a carer, I needed to be able to work from home, so all the admin is done at my home office. Training courses are delivered at different venues in the area.
Why should our clients choose you?
My training is fun and engaging. Whenever most people think of health and safety training, their shoulders sag and their expressions droop to boredom. Not so with my training! You will be engaged, and even find yourself enjoying the course.
