Trevor’s testimonials.
‘Instructor Trevor was really engaging with us and made the session very interesting with informative discussions. The session was helpful for me to understand certain aspects which were useful for my role, highlighting the importance of safety and ways to consider how actions can impact ourselves and others and what measures can be used for a better outcome.’
This 4 days IKON training was excellent. The restraint techniques were perfectly shown, explained and we had plenty of time to practice them. They are both safe (for the person restrained and ourselves) and adequate for our job. The legal aspect of our actions was also taught, which is an excellent point as many security officers are not fully aware of the implication of restraining/removing someone from the premises. The importance of a good report writing was also emphasized, with what elements to put in it. At last the trainer (Trevor) and his trainee (Jude) were fantastic. They were very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. They made us feel at ease and confident in what we are doing.
“It was a great experience, glad we got this training. We actually used the training in a situation we were put in a few hours later, definitely helpful in that moment with a difficult tenant.”
‘Breakaway Disengagement Training is training all clinical professionals should be provided mandatorily.’
‘Trevor was an excellent trainer who adapted his style and approach seamlessly to ensure everyone in the session remained engaged and able to fully grasp the content. His relaxed, fun, and personable delivery made the session both enjoyable and accessible. I particularly appreciated how he created an inclusive and supportive environment, making even complex legislative aspects easy to understand and relate to. As a senior manager within the group, I was especially impressed by the sense of ease Trevor brought to the session. His natural charm and humour helped remove any perceived barriers, creating a space where everyone felt empowered to contribute and share openly. His energy, enthusiasm, and ability to connect with the group made for a truly refreshing and impactful learning experience. Well Done Trevor!’
‘I recently attended the Breakaway Disengagement Training with IKON as part of the Affiliate Trainer course, and it was such a positive experience. The trainers, James and Trevor, were absolutely brilliant — they covered every detail of the course so clearly, while creating space for group discussions and the sharing of real-life experiences. It really refreshed my knowledge and gave me a big confidence boost to continue training our amazing team at Lexrae Support. I’d highly recommend this training to anyone in a similar role.’
