How wrong could I be! The PMI course content and the instructor was fantastic. The grounds and the setting were perfect for my training experience.
The food was absolutely first rate too along with superb staff.
I will definitely use Firebrand again and will highly recommend the course to others
Thank you ever so much for a first rate job."

"A good course with an excellent and highly capable trainer. Allow lots of time for the pre-reading. Spend some extra time reading up on network security, and also plenty on DNS, since the make up large and very important parts of the course that relate highly to ALL the modules. Dont be mislead into thinking that you will walk away from it just ticking all the boxes to get the MCSE, it is a lot of very hard work. It has provided me with a very good foundation upon which to complete my certification.
My Thanks go to all the staff and of course to the trainer, who went through plenty of hoops and midnight oil to give us the best possible chances of coming away with the most we could.
