I attended the paediatric phlebotomy course with Edd which was very thorough and informative.
I very much enjoyed it and would highly recommend Edd and his team.

I completed the phlebotomy course which was very informative. The faclitater Dana was was knowledgeable and enthusiastic and tbe group was very supportive. It also enlighten me how much opportunities are available.

“My phlebotomy training was a great experience from start to finish. Dana and Ed were fantastic trainers — professional, approachable, and very reassuring. The practical sessions were thorough and really helped ease my nerves and build confidence. I learned so much and feel ready to move forward thanks to their guidance. I would definitely recommend this course.”

From booking onto the courses to attending them the team were absolutely fantastic. Highly experienced trainers that delivered the perfect balance of theory and practical. Highly recommended and I will be booking more courses.

After working in NHS admin and taking time out to raise my children, I wanted to return in a more clinical role. I came across Bloods and Beyond, did my research, and decided to take their phlebotomy course. I’m so glad I did! The training was thorough, hands-on, and delivered in a real GP practice setting. Edd’s teaching style is clear, approachable, and makes learning so much easier.

Just two months after completing the course, I secured a phlebotomy role at a local GP, where they’re also training me to administer immunisations. I truly believe the knowledge, skills, and confidence I gained from this course helped me land the job. I also went on to complete extra courses like wound care, observations, first aid, and safeguarding, which built on my skills.

I couldn’t recommend Bloods and Beyond highly enough to anyone wanting to start a career in phlebotomy!

From initial contact right up to practical training day, communication was great. Angela was really helpful at answering questions about various courses and booked me in. The online content/handbook was really informative. It was really good to actually see the trainer on the training videos, it offered a more personable experience and made it more familiar on the practical day. The practical training was delivered brilliantly it was a super relaxed environment, friendly and Edd was really knowledgeable and patient. My only slight negative was that it was quite a distance from me, but hey a night off and away for a break was part of the experience. Highly recommend iNTraining.

I recently completed the Phlebotomy course and Paediatric Phlebotomy with BLS, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. My trainer, Ed, was absolutely brilliant — knowledgeable, supportive, and incredibly engaging throughout.
The online course and face to face day was well-structured informative, which really helped build my confidence.

I recently completed a phlebotomy masterclass with Edd and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The course was thorough, practical, and clearly delivered. Edd’s teaching style is both professional and approachable — he made sure everyone felt confident and supported throughout. I now feel fully prepared to incorporate phlebotomy into my clinical work. Highly recommend to anyone looking to upskill in this area!

I have had a live venepuncture and cannulation training which was really good for me. Theory part was nailed it gained so much through it. Definitely I am looking forward to go for the similar courses.

The trainer is very competent

Thank you for a great, informative teaching session, made even better by the change to practice the skills learnt and even to practice on a patient. Would thoroughly recommend the training to anyone that needs venepuncture or cannulation training

I had my doubts at the start but I actually drew live blood at the end of the course! Very pleased with my progress.

Really enjoyed the Venapuncture, Advanced Venapuncture and Cannulation.
Edd Tillen was easy to understand, knowledgeable and full of hints and tips to make me a more rounded Phlebotomist. Would definitely recommend.Thanks!

Edd is absolutely fantastic! I recently completed their training program and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Edd was incredibly knowledgeable and made the learning process enjoyable. He provided hands-on practice, which gave me the confidence I needed to excel in my future career as a phlebotomist. I highly recommend Phlebotomy Trainer to anyone looking to pursue this field. You won't be disappointed!" 🩸✨

Edd was a great trainer for this intensive, two day phlebotomy course, engaging the class with his friendly, humorous and interactive manner. The lessons, theory and practicals were all explained simply but in detail, with time made for questions, demonstration and repetition. This was especially appreciated during the practical exam and also the live bloods module some of us took on the second day. Such components often require extra time and care for trainees to be thorough and Edd was very reassuring to all of us.

He was also kind enough to have a conversation with me a few weeks before the session so I could ask questions to prepare and has been very helpful with employment, cpd and theory advice post-course.

I'd recommend anybody working in or interested in the medical/clinical field to get in contact with Edd at In-Training and see how they can help with continued professional development for you and your clinical staff or getting started in a totally new career entirely.

Grateful for the experience and now onto employment. 😊
