We caught up with their Digital PR Manager Annabelle Earps to see how High Speed Training’s courses have been used to upskill their team and keep their staff safe.


How did you find out about our courses, and what made you choose High Speed Training?

We discovered High Speed Training while searching online for reliable and comprehensive training solutions. Their course offerings met our needs perfectly, providing a range of topics that were relevant to our industry and designed to fit the flexible training schedule we required.

Which courses have you and your colleagues taken with us?

Our team has completed several courses with High Speed Training, including First Aid, Fire Marshal, Mental Health Awareness, Banksman, Warehouse Safety, and Manual Handling. These courses have covered a broad spectrum of essential skills and knowledge areas for our workforce.

Were there any specific needs that you were trying to address with our courses?

We needed a convenient and effective way to train our staff that accommodated both their schedules and the operational demands of the company. The courses offered by High Speed Training provided this flexibility, allowing our employees to undertake training at times that suited them best without disrupting their work.

What was your experience of the courses?

Our experience with the courses has been very positive. The content was easy to understand, highly informative, and visually engaging. This made the learning process smooth and enjoyable for our staff, ensuring they retained the crucial information presented.

Were there any specific elements that stood out for you?

One standout feature was how the information was segmented into well-organised sections. This breakdown made it easier for learners to absorb the material in manageable chunks, enhancing comprehension and retention.

How has the training helped you and your organisation?

The training has significantly improved our organisation’s health and safety proficiency. It has raised awareness about safety practices among our employees and instilled a stronger culture of safety in the workplace, ultimately contributing to a safer and more efficient work environment.

How important do you think training is within your industry?

Training is incredibly important in our industry as it can literally save lives. Proper training ensures that employees understand how to perform their duties safely, reducing the risk of accidents and injuries, and maintaining a secure working environment for everyone.

I would highly recommend these courses to other organisations. For anyone considering this type of training, I would say that the courses are not only informative and comprehensive but also designed in a way that is easy to watch and understand. They strike the perfect balance between being thorough and engaging, making them an excellent choice for professional development.
