Reviews from participants after course completion.
Minh Anh
- Previously, my children's school invited Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN to come to the school to teach children and parents some basic knowledge in first aid. Now, I registered to learn CPR (theory and practice) and was placed in a first aid practice class. Practice many good and necessary skills. Vietnamese people tend to help others, but helping people incorrectly often causes more harm to the injured person and themselves. Learn it, it's great. The best part is the practical learning part. There are additional doctors at 115 for guidance.
Huong Pham
- First Aid Education has contributed to a 50% reduction in workplace injuries in Australia since 2007 and we strive to reduce this to 0%. SSVN's training program is being implemented according to Australian standards.

- Having attended a fire prevention class organized by the CA, I learned many useful things about survival skills, so I quite like this training course. Unfortunately, in Vietnam, classes are a bit rare. Recently, I have witnessed many more heart breaking cases just because family members did not have basic first aid skills, leading to no rescue, so I saw information about the class. This Survival Skill was a must to jump into as soon as the information was released a few months ago. When I go to school, I see that there are things I learned from my predecessors that are completely wrong and need to be updated. Many thanks to expert Tony Coffey for taking his annual leave to come to Vietnam to disseminate this knowledge. The next course is expected to open in early 2018.
Son Tran
- Everyone wants to save people, but not everyone knows how to save them. It is true that one day it is necessary to study a wise sieve. Hopefully, the good values of Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN will soon be spread more widely to the community. The basic first aid skills everyone should be equipped with, especially the instructors. Cherished and grateful!
Gia Huy
- Last Sunday, Tue Quang collaborated with Survival Skills Vietnam to organize a training session on first aid methods for children. In order to avoid unfortunate cases due to mishandling, wasting time waiting for an ambulance or transporting to the hospital, SSVN released the mobile app "First Aid" to help people equip themselves with practical knowledge. Please download it here. After this useful activity, Tue Quang and SSVN hope that parents and teachers always focus on equipping themselves with first aid knowledge and always be ready when an accident occurs.
Tue Quang Center for Children with Autism
- After a day of learning about first aid skills with a lot of laughter, we also completed the course. In addition to studying for work, the SGMR team also wants to be able to provide the best support for cases that need first aid in daily life. Thank you very much to Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN for organizing the class.
Saigon Morning Ride
- Actually, before I came to SSVN, I also learned about SSVN, and I saw that this side did a very thorough job from apps, YouTube clips, and courses that I think are essential for everyone. Now participating, you can feel the heart in the operation of this business too. Each course is only somewhere over 1 million or less, and especially Khoa sees that there is a course for children too. These courses can be organized by companies with a heart for these employees and SSVN is free for each school again for parents who want to propose to the school. Or volunteer organizations can organize for people in remote areas. It will definitely support SSVN and everyone can also consider trying to go to free workshops before the appointment.
Trần Đăng Khoa
- One start-up in Vietnam that I find most impressive is probably the social enterprise Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN (also a start-up at the Incubator of UEH Institute of Innovation). With the mission of reducing preventable casualties in Vietnam through international standard first aid education, SSVN has helped more than 55,000 Vietnamese people access first aid knowledge and is also one of the leading social organizations in Vietnam in applying digital transformation to better serve the community.
Thu Ngân
- A course on basic first aid skills is very useful and necessary. Thank you to Friends & Trails and Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN for creating conditions for everyone to participate. Actually, if I meet a person in distress, I want to help them, so I should do my best to save the victim, but if I do something wrong, it is different from trying to harm people, I hope everyone feels that basic first aid skills like this are very necessary and arrange time to participate in courses like this. Dreaming of being lucky to go to school will spread to my family, friends, and especially my Tri An campers.
Nguyễn Hồng Mơ
- Currently, on TV, Youtube, social networks and smart phone apps, there are many useful videos and programs for you to learn. One of the channels is Survival Skills Vietnam. This is a social enterprise (i.e. the profits will mainly go to serve the community), taught by Mr. Tony Coffey, an Australian first aid specialist with more than 25 years of experience in training in Australia and always updated with the latest international knowledge. Mr Tony has spent his own money to fly back and forth from Australia to Vietnam to teach for free to the community for more than 4 years. And Ms. Trang Jena Nguyen is also the one who flew back and forth from Switzerland to support Mr Tony and Ho Thai Binh to connect and develop SSVN.
Hồng Nhung
- A few days ago in Da Lat, Trung completed the training course: Surf Life Saving Australia's Basic Trauma First Aid & Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation in combination with Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN. According to statistics, up to 95% of victims of accidents and injuries do not receive first aid or improper emergency care before going to the hospital, leading to unfortunate consequences. With accidents, injuries, if properly treated, can help increase the chances of survival for the victim. In fact, many people have been saved in time, but there are also many patients who are aggravated due to the wrong initial emergency. Trung will bring this program to Hanoi and Hoi An as soon as possible, a program that is extremely meaningful to each of us and our relatives.
Lê Trung Kiên
- "I feel sorry when I can't help a victim, no matter what the accident" - The non-profit organization Survival Skills Vietnam was born perhaps because of that mission! On weekend mornings, the two brothers were lucky to accompany their training session on on-site first aid knowledge for victims to avoid the risk of death before being taken to the hospital. They guide with all the first aid methods they have learned. We learned quite a bit but the most was their work for the community!
Nguyễn Đạt
- Khoi has played many sports and along with that are always injuries that are never avoided. Looking back, these are only minor injuries compared to the injuries I have seen on professional courts from broken legs, fainting to stroke. With the desire to understand more about these injuries to prevent unfortunate accidents from occurring, I have registered for a first aid course of Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN. I thought it would also be a course on the basics of CPR, skin tears, bleeding, broken legs,... because Khoi had previously participated in a first-aid training session at level 2 to take the exam but did not!! Situations such as stroke, shock, cardiac arrest,... are mentioned together with handling situations. This course will bring a little knowledge to everyone that will be very beneficial in the future.
Khôi
- There are many reasons why I want to learn about first aid. And I am also very lucky to receive the course "Basic First Aid Theory" from SSVN so that I can consolidate my old knowledge and add new knowledge to be a "road baggage" for myself. If you have the same reasons for wanting to learn first aid, start now. There are many related courses or materials that you can refer to. By the way, I would like to thank SSVN once again for giving me the opportunity to access this very useful and really easy to learn course. Hopefully, SSVN can reach more subjects so that everyone can have these valuable "baggage on the road".
Trần
- First aid knowledge is a very necessary skill for each individual to be able to help loved ones as well as themselves. When an unexpected accident occurs, providing first aid before being taken to the hospital is extremely important. Luckily, I learned about the SSVN International Standard First Aid Training Centre and received direct guidance from Ms. Trang Jena Nguyen and Mr. Tony Coffey, which helped me clearly understand and apply seemingly difficult medical knowledge. but it's very easy to practice. Two full days of practice cannot guarantee mastery of this skill. But SSVN always supports, facilitates and accompanies students through quality theoretical lessons on E-learning, YouTube channel, and free practice learning to help spread survival knowledge to the community. copper.
Trần Minh Hoàng Yến
- This morning, Bin just participated in a pretty good first aid class for children from 6-10 years old of Survival Skills Vietnam. When I came home, I told him briefly what I had learned about how to treat haemostasis, how to open the airway, how to handle foreign bodies and food, and how to handle dog bites. Actually, my mother sometimes doesn't know how to handle these things! The program also has a course for adults and invites you to see if anyone goes to school with you. I think the treatment of heart stroke is extremely important.
Lisa Dao
- In order to meet the requirements and regulations in ensuring the safety of students, last week, we participated in a very professional and useful First Aid course at Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN - also a partner of ABROADER with public health courses. Taking this course, we are fully equipped to handle situations in the best way. And this is also the last step to welcome international students to Vietnam, in 2023! Let's wait and join us.
Abroader Vietnam
- Recently, I was lucky to participate in the SCC course of Survival Skill Vietnam, although I studied health medicine, I feel that the knowledge of this course is covered by a specific system, in-depth enough as well as clearly indicating situations to help learners even ordinary people learn easily. Many times I feel that I have new knowledge that even I don't know. Therefore, if you want to know more about SCC as well as professional training to be able to confidently handle unnecessary situations, perhaps the most reliable suggestion is Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN Lastly, I am very grateful for this course, thank you for the enthusiastic instructors, Thank you for the useful knowledge. Hopefully, Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN will facilitate spreading these things to more people. Thank you very much!
Hầu Nguyễn Cati
- Grateful to Ms. Trang Jena Nguyen, Ho Thai Binh, Tran Phuong Thanh, Ms. Danh, Ms. Hien of Survival Skills Vietnam... have sacrificed the whole weekend right at the end of the year to enthusiastically guide and diligently convey valuable knowledge to the members of the CPFAV Vietnam Association of Families of Mentally Handicapped Children. Grateful to Officience for sponsoring the venue & supporting the training session to be a success. Grateful to the volunteers, grateful to the parents for recognizing the importance of first aid & hard work! Grateful for life!
Diệp Mai
- A very useful course from Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN, dispelling all erroneous word-of-mouth concepts about first aid for victims, which can unintentionally take the life of the victim and the rescuer themselves or leave behind remains. more severe symptoms for the victim.
Phạm Thị Ánh Hồng
- In high school, I also studied this subject, but it was very loud. When I worked in a hotel restaurant, I learned again, but it was mainly theoretical, 1 person taught hundreds of people. Until I travel and encounter situations that require first aid or urgent treatment, it is almost all my husband who guides. He said that in Europe, survival skills are taught very well, so they understand risky situations and handle them promptly when necessary. Until I have a child, again, the mother's instinct pushes me to learn hard to protect my child, myself and my loved ones in situations where life counts in seconds! I was lucky to connect with SSVN, a prestigious Australian organization that teaches survival skills. I want to bring this practical course to everyone.
Huỳnh Phương
- Thank you Mr. Tony Coffey and Mr. Ho Thai Binh for building a very practical and useful training program for the community. Helping everyone who participates in learning is also equipped with basic first aid knowledge, minimizing injuries or double accidents. A very useful app for family and society. Thank you very much to the authors.
Teacher Nguyễn Khen
- Dear friends, the course of Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN is a series of very useful information for me. Taught by professional instructors, vivid images, scientific and very detailed lecture system. Not to flatter, but even though I have a certain foundation in First Aid, I think this seemingly basic course provides a very clear and scientific way for my peers. , friends who work in the office or families with elderly people. For those of you who are starting with First Aid, but find it too difficult to systematize the knowledge, and are skeptical about the knowledge provided from online newspapers, this course is for you.
Trương Văn Hoài Khanh
- I feel the need for this First Aid Skills course for everyone. When Vietnamese people know the skills, many people in distress will be saved. I want to spread this knowledge of first aid to my family members so that they can handle emergency accidents because my family has many children and elderly parents are very susceptible to the leading fatal health incidents.
Vũ Thị Hồng
- As the general teacher in charge of the Team, I understand that primary care is very important. Connected with SSVN, I immediately coordinated with the Cu M'gar District Youth Union (Daklak) to organize a training course on first aid skills for teachers and medical staff of the school. I hope that all schools across Vietnam will implement first aid teaching as soon as possible.
Mai Văn Chuyền
- We highly appreciate SSVN's contribution to first aid. I consider this the most important thing, if there is no timely first aid, no matter how modern the ambulance is, it will not be able to arrive in time to support in the golden time of the patient.
Dr. Nguyễn Duy Long
- We want people around us to know first aid skills, so during SEN Charity's volunteer programs, we bring that knowledge to the communities we serve.
Lê Phan Quang Nghiệp
- When I was a grab truck driver, I gave first aid according to folk methods, after being trained by SSVN, I overcame all the barriers and negatives of the prejudice that "only medical students can do first aid".
Phạm Quốc Việt
- A shocking moment for all fans last week occurred when Danish midfielder Christian Eriksen was playing when he suddenly collapsed on the field, lying motionless, causing the match at Euro 2020 to be postponed. After being immediately given first aid by the medical staff, fortunately he regained consciousness. The danger of cardiopulmonary arrest is well known. Cases of cardiopulmonary arrest outside the community are actually not as rare as you might think. So if you, when you meet a completely normal person, suddenly UNCONSCIOUS, what should you do? It is essential to equip yourself with first aid and timely response skills for these cases. Thank you SSVN for sharing this useful information.
Văn Hiếu
- Thank you, Mr. Binh, for your useful sharing this morning for Manulife's customers. Feedback My customers really enjoyed the sharing session.
Võ Thị Mỹ Hằng
- SAVING LIVES IS A SKILL THAT CAN BE LEARNED AND PRACTICED.We cannot predict the unexpected risks that we and our loved ones will encounter and it is impossible to prevent them from happening. We spend nearly 20 years learning the profession so that we can go to work, but it only takes a few hours in exchange for a human life.
Xuân Thủ
- First aid plays a very important role at the decisive moment of life and death, minimizing the consequences for the person in need. Understanding that importance, KPMG has collaborated with Survival Skills Vietnam to organize a Basic First Aid training session. The program helped KPMG Staff learn about the basic principles and procedures for approaching the scene when providing first aid. At the same time, the practical sharing of cases of life saved in the community has contributed to inspiring and encouraging each person to be equipped with more knowledge. We believe that activities are not only valuable for each individual, but also help build a safe working environment and make meaningful contributions to the community.
KPMG Vietnam
- First aid skills are very important skills that we can use in our daily lives to protect ourselves and those around us. But deaf people don't have the information and opportunity to know about this skill and when I announce this program to the deaf community, they are very happy because in addition to protecting themselves, they can save the lives of those around them and their loved ones. This project we have implemented together with SSVN experts to make it suitable for deaf people and this method will create favorable conditions for them to participate in the most accessible and interesting way.
Ms. Nguyễn Trần Thủy Tiên
- The SSVN program is always updated with the latest from the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR). Prestigious teaching team, trained from abroad. Practical content, scientific manipulation, rich application. Especially Mr. Tony's inspirational way, simple, witty and very pedagogical. No training, but holding hands, just practice, repeat, repeat.
Nguyễn Văn Mỹ
- A class is both highly valuable for ourselves and brings benefits to the community, if we are confident in our knowledge to help people who are in accidents around us, we are ready to have a class that gathers students every term.
Trần Phan Thanh Huyền
- The course is very, very good, folks! It is very recommended to go to school! In the past, first aid was important. But I only bought books to read ah, and... infiltrate. After studying, I feel that every penny, and every time I spend is worth it! The course was very well organized. Invite the emergency party 115 to teach with you. With 1 professional class, I thought it would be quite boring, but no, the class surprised me very much, the 2 lecturers were extremely professional and funny, making me laugh continuously, but the knowledge went deep very naturally. And I was able to practice all the teaching topics continuously. So I will remember it longer.
Mai Khanh
- When I was at home, I went to equip myself with more survival skills. Thank you Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN for a VERY VERY USEFUL course. Equipping ourselves with this knowledge is essential for ourselves, our families and society. Learning to practice memorization in class, making first aid much simpler.
Ha Hue
- Did you know that sometimes visually impaired people need to learn first aid skills to help people? In an emergency, we must learn how to give first aid to ourselves and others, as well as perform CPR before the ambulance arrives.
Aikeo Koomanivong
- An interesting and very necessary experience for everyone in SSVN's First Aid class. And it is an opportunity to connect and interact with many brothers and sisters from a variety of professions from all over the country.
Compassion
- I feel very touched by your purpose and mission. Your lectures are inspiring and moving, interesting and useful. We want to express our gratitude to your organization, for your help to the country. So we want things to develop further. I want to organize more useful programs like this for Highlands employees
Mr Le Thai Anh
- The two grandchildren slipped and fell while their mother was holding their child, the baby was bleeding and she showed signs of spinal injury. At that time, I was the only woman at home, I applied the knowledge of SSVN first aid and left my mother on the ironing board on a stretcher, so she did not have spinal damage.
Mrs ViVi Vu
- I found a woman in an accident unconscious on the side of the road. I placed the victim on his side according to the recovery position instructed by SSVN. When he was put into the car, the police assisted in taking him to the emergency room, and he was also lying on his side. Although everyone around me told me to put her on her back, I calmly explained to everyone that if she vomited, the fluid could block her airway and stop her breathing. Indeed, on the way to the hospital, the victim vomited a lot of blood and fluids. The doctor praised me for handling first aid well to help save the victim, and the next morning her family called to thank me. I feel very happy because I can help others.
Mr Duy
- Truly every moment of today's school day is very valuable. Thank you very much for the knowledge, skills, heart, and enthusiasm of experts Tony and Ms. Trang Jena. We hope that all Vietnamese people will know about your programs and courses to equip themselves with truly necessary skills in life.
Mrs Pham Thi Lan Huong
- Very good! Very meaningful! The course is useful for each individual and community. I hope that there will be many supporters so that any Vietnamese person can master this knowledge. It not only helps yourself, but also helps your relatives, friends, and people around you.

- Providing good first aid to the victim before being treated by a doctor will help the victim's future quality of life be better and last longer. That's why I chose SSVN as a place to learn correct and complete knowledge to perfect my own knowledge as well as support my family and those around me if needed. Teacher Tony Coffey's humorous way of teaching and practicing makes the acquisition of knowledge light and exciting. Ms. Trang's interpretation and extensive understanding of first aid helped me understand well and thoroughly the reasons and methods of providing first aid to the victim.
Mrs Tammy Nguyen
- Highly recommend that everyone go to school to have the most basic first aid knowledge and avoid common myths. It's really important to know, even though you never want to do it
Mr Duy Hung
- A social enterprise that really brings practical benefits to the community, support them in bringing these basic skills to the people. A social enterprise really helps the community. As a corporate, please support them so that they can train the survival skills to remote or larger community.
Mrs Helen Ngo
- SSVN provides basic and necessary knowledge about first aid that anyone can practice in life, helping me to break down many things about first aid that were misunderstood before. Highly recommended!
Mrs Mam Dau
- Enthusiasm for the community needs contributing hands. And that's also how we protect our loved ones
Mrs Minh Hoang Nguyen
- I attended SSVN's cardiopulmonary resuscitation class on September 28 and learned and practiced useful contents, which can help those around me in case of emergency. It is hoped that the program will be spread so that more people will be supported and the Vietnamese community will pay more attention to how to handle in case of emergency, not just entrust it to doctors.
Mrs Hong Dao
- I bought a European First Aid kit (SCC) from SSVN and would highly recommend it to everyone to equip themselves. A compact but extremely useful bag! Items ranging from sterile gauze, medical gloves, scissors, tweezers, bandages, including thermal blankets and cleaning alcohol pads are all of very good quality so are quite satisfying to use. Actually, I feel more secure when I put this small bag in the trunk of the car or in my child's school bag every time I leave the house, instead of just telling my child to walk carefully.
Mrs Classic Metronome
- I have sent my daughter to participate in self-defence classes for children aged <10. Although the class was short, it was very useful. I think parents should let their children participate in similar classes.
Mr Manh Thang
- Indeed, those who have once worked with the Survival Skills Vietnam-SSVN team will receive very enthusiastic and sincere learning, care, and guidance. From the first day I was very naïve until today I have changed positively. Know how to respect your health, love your brain, always have a positive spirit and most importantly, direct yourself for the community! I would like to thank all of you for always living sincerely and dedicating your efforts to the community! I'm proud and will try harder.
Mrs Nguyen Thi Kim Anh
Mrs Le Thi Kim Chi
- Truly every moment of today's school day is very valuable. Thank you very much for the knowledge, skills, heart, and enthusiasm of experts Tony and Ms. Trang Jena. We hope that all Vietnamese people will know about your programs and courses to have the skills that are truly necessary in life.
Mrs Pham Thi Lan Huong
Mr Doan Duc Trung
- A very good, rewarding and highly community program, thanks to experts Tony Coffey and Trang Jena Nguyen for bringing this program to Vietnam
Mr Lê Trung
- Extremely meaningful. There are skills that I and those around me have been doing wrong for a long time. Thank you Ms. Trang and Mr. Tony very much!
Mrs Lan Phuong Phung
- Extremely rewarding. The class is dedicated to children, so there should be an interpreter/instructor who is more suitable for children because many technical words are not understood by children.
Mrs Phuong Vpm
- The training is essential for all people. Many thanks Tony and Jena. We have a lot of fun and feel so confident practicing first aid now!
Mrs Julie Ngo
- Great program by great team. I've learnt a lot of useful things that I should learn long before. Thanks Mr. Tony n Ms. Trang, you both inspired me
Mrs Thuy Liz
- Very good! Very meaningful! The course is useful for individuals and communities. I hope that there will be many supporters so that any Vietnamese person can master this knowledge. It not only helps yourself, but also helps your relatives, friends, and people around you.
Mrs Astrid Le
- This is the program that I have been looking for for a long time, hoping that in the future we can cooperate together to bring programs to more people. The program provides students with practical skills to apply to first aid in situations that may occur on a daily basis.
