Please ensure that you know what you are doing before you embark on this training! It is a roller-coaster of highs and lows, constant study and "red" eyes. Please, please understand that you simply must have experienced the subject matter for a while before you go on this course.
I did not know what the course entailed and left Firebrand very disappointed! The training is 1st class, there is NO better place to do MCSE BUT - Dont be under the illusion that you can come with little or no experience and pass. You will be in for a shock!"
