What People are Saying
Hi Shelley & team!
I just wanted to take a moment to thank you so much for the great advice and training you have provided me! Not only did you take great care in explaining how the course works, but also all the little tips to help with success. I found the practice session so beneficial especially with a smaller group and not having the additional pressure of an official recruiting session. I was able to get very positive and practical feedback from you and your team. I was able to apply the feedback and techniques to the PREP and shuttle I recently ran with my local police department that I have applied to. I am happy to say that I was successful in both the obstacle course and shuttle run!! It was not an official run but it definitely got me on their radar and headed in the right direction!! I highly recommend your course to anyone curious about their fitness level in regards to a benchmark for policing, and also a great way to practice. I even found myself giving tips to other people who found them helpful as well!!! Thank you again and I’m sure I’ll be back for some more info, practice and feedback!!

Shelley and her staff are great! I had a circumstance come up where I needed their help on finding a PREP test on very short notice. She worked around my crazy tight schedule and took the time to keep consistent communication with me whenever I had questions. Despite her and her staff being busy with all the other things going on at the time, they all took the time out of their day to make sure to guide me and assist me through the PREP exam. We’re talking busy as in they had to basically move every piece of equipment in the gym due to new flooring. She even took the time to write up a document to bring to my employer to show proof of the completed test which was way more than I could have asked for.
In short, Shelley and her team ROCK!

The team at Emergency Services have been phenomenal. I started my fitness journey with them in January of 2022. Since the very first test day to my last I have been met with a friendly face, educational advice, tips and overall sense of acceptance.
My beginning time started off at 5:20 and ended at 4:31. This journey has shown me that to succeed you must accept failure to build upon your goals. Shelley and Anthony have been very supportive in this process, taking a little extra time after each session to go over my run. This truly helped me isolate my goals and areas I needed to work on.
I am happy to have completed my fitness requirements with Emergency Services and I highly recommend them to anyone looking to achieve their law enforcement fitness goals..

Shelley and her team are phenomenal. Shelley is an absolute gem as a trainer and personal cheerleader – she wants you to pass more than you know, and her cheering me on through each obstacle gave me that extra boost. Shelley coached me on the push/pull machine and taught me the techniques of completing that portion, she was always encouraging and didn’t let me give up. She is a true leader and I am so happy I completed my test with her and her team at Emergency Services Training! I highly recommend their training facility. Thank you again Shelley & team!

I have taken the PARE and PREP test in many different locations across Ontario. I can gladly say that Emergency Services Training is by far the most organized, supportive, and clean facility I have taken the testing with.
The staff were extremely friendly, informative, and professional. If I ever need to complete this testing again, I would drive straight back just so I know I have the most comfortable experience possible!

Thank you to all of you for your great attitude and positive energy. My greatest appreciation and thank you goes to Anthony who pushed me beyond my limits using three simple words ‘Just Do It’.
I passed the test today because of Anthony and those words. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Good morning,
I just wanted to say I had a great experience doing the practice PARE test and running the official test last weekend.
Your staff team was very friendly and gave me some good advice on both days; and that helped me feel motivated that I was capable of passing this evaluation.
I would definitely recommend your facility for others interested in the CBSA.

If you’re looking for somewhere to do your PARE test. Book this place. I was recommended Emergency Services Training by a friend for the spot to do my Pare test and I would not recommend any other place. Shelley and her team are incredible and push you to your limit so you can pass the test. I did one practice, the WEST workshop, and my test and I highly recommend it. If you have time. Do the practice a few times to learn the obstacle course.

Hey Shelley
Thank you for running the PARE for us all yesterday. The tips your team gave me in March worked!
I also wanted to say that I did my psychological tests on Friday and some of the people there had also done their PARE with you, and everyone (me included!) thinks you are a great help to the people taking the test, and your kindness has been mentioned many times. Thank you!

A big thank you to the Emergency Services Training team – Shelley, Anthony, Joanne, Lauren, Adam, and Joanna—for their encouragement, tips & tricks, and pleasant disposition in helping me be successful at my PARE test. The team was very observant and offered advice, tips and tricks to help me along the way during my preparation for this – from ways to increase my cardio and muscular endurance, to calming my nerves and ‘getting out of my head’. The team is committed to helping individuals succeed at their PARE. During my PARE Test session, I received encouragement from my PARE Administrator to keep going when it appeared that I would give up. I persisted because of their encouragement and it eventually led me to successfully complete my test.

Dear Shelley and the Emergency Services Training Team,
I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional support during my P.A.R.E practice and test
sessions. The structured approach and realistic simulations provided invaluable insights, ensuring I was
well-prepared for the P.A.R.E test.
The P.A.R.E practice allowed me to familiarize myself with the equipment and understand the test’s
intricacies. Running laps of the obstacle course, engaging in PUSH/PULL components, and concluding
with the torso bag exercise were key components that contributed to my confidence during the actual test.
Your team’s dedication to tailoring practice and test sessions to individual needs is commendable. The
attention to detail and commitment to excellence undoubtedly played a crucial role in my successful
P.A.R.E performance.
Thank you for empowering candidates like me and contributing to our journey towards our career.

I have recently used the Emergency Service Training to practice the PREP test. It was a fantastic and informative experience! Shelley and Joanne were amazing coaches. They could answer any questions I had, helped with technique, and even built confidence in me. I would HIGHLY recommend Emergency Service Training to anyone about to do the PREP test. Many thanks to Shelley and Joanne once again!

I would like to start off by saying thank you Shelley and your colleague’s determination to help out your students. You ladies thoroughly explained the process while accurately writing it down on the grading paper which would allow participants to know which areas they would need to improve on . Even after the sessions are done , you would spend the time to help out 1 on 1 to whomever may need it and let them try out any of the machines. I went from 3:05 timing on Pursuit/Restraint on June 3rd to 2:30 on July 26th. With your feedback, I was able to take the necessary steps to correct my mistakes and conduct the Pursuit/Restraint with little to no issues. Thanks once again for your service.
I think that may make a good testimonial.
