About us

Real Response is an RTO that specialises in simulation based training. Since its inception, Real Response has trained tens of thousands of people in Australia and around the world through some of the most engaging and realistic training available.

Our Story

The story of Real Response starts in 2009 when Ben Krynski founded a boutique first aid training company called Phoenix First Aid from his parent’s garage.

A year later, Motti Blum joined Ben as a partner and co-founder. For about 4 years Ben and Motti ran sporadic traditional first aid courses for businesses and other organisations around Melbourne, whilst they both focused on other goals.

By 2014 Motti and Ben realised there was an acute need for engaging, interactive and realistic first aid training in Australia.

At the end of 2014 they launched Real First Aid, a company that specialised in delivering realistic simulation based first aid training.

Each course incorporated role play, props, fake wounds, flashing lights, sirens, smoke, odours and an answering service designed to simulate 000 calls.
