CCENT - Testimonials
"I wasn't prepared for how intense the course was going to be. I had read the previous testimonials from other people and felt that because I was used to working long hours I would be prepared for how hardcore the learning environment was going to be... but I wasn't. You need to be prepared to be cut off from the rest of the world for the whole week!!"
Natasha Rupniak, The DX Group.
"As a returning student I was pleasantly surprised with the welcome and support I received. We were all old friends. All my needs were met and it was a pleasure to attend the MCSE course. I did not expect to get new enrollments of Measureups and extra stationary, but thank you. The new facilities certainly make it an enjoyable study venue, well done."
K.H, Unemployed.
"The Firebrand Training instructor was exceptional - his knowledge was 2nd to none and he was able to apply the knowledge into working practice.
His teaching methods are excellent."
David Fraser, CBF Consultancy.
"Good training. Made me more aware of the security side of IT"
A.W, Morrisons.
"Excellent course with well informed and helpful instructor."
Fergus Prone, The Danwood Group Limited.
"An excellent facility with highly qualified Prince2 trainers which leads itself to the accelerated learning environment. I would highly recommend."
Nicola McIlroy, air products.
"The days are crammed with content. There are TVs in the bedrooms but I didn't see the point as I never finished my revision or labs until midnight most evenings. "
Anthony Jackson, XMA Ltd.
"Intense, demanding but very rewarding. I enjoyed the whole experience and would strongly recommend to anyone with a thirst to learn and an ability to detach from the rest of the world and focus."
Robert Camm, Birmingham City Council.
"The lack of experience in this field of work and previous poor experiences relating to accelerated learning courses filled me with dread prior to attending the A+ Network+ CompTIA course. However, the instructor and the methods he employed to relay useful and relevant information, whilst at the same time making a geeky subject seem fun, totally changed my outlook on Firebrand Training. I would however recommend a break between the A+ and N+ courses for those of limited or no experience. Thanks to Firebrand and the instructor. "
Ryan Townsend, Armed Forces.

David Fraser, CBF Consultancy.
"I would definitely use the service again as the accelerated learning minimizes the impact on my time."
R.G, Covidien Ltd.
"Due to my hectic work schedule working around the world for Honeywell I do not get the opportunity to dedicate random days over a long period for training in centres or self study. Firebrand was the only company I found who was able to supply a bootcamp environment with training and accommodation in Europe that met the training and exam criteria for the MCITP(EA). This 13 day course is not a course for the 9 to 5 worker. To pass the exam you require hard work and dedication from yourself and your instructor. Firebrand was able to supply the right facilities and people to do the job. I chose Firebrand Training because of bootcamp training and the ability to do exams directly after the course."
Kurt Forster, Honeywell.
"Second time visiting. Firebrand Training seem to be going from strength to strength."
Will Sheldon, kings college school.
"The boot camp style CCNA training course, allows you to remove yourself from your everyday responsibilities and helps you to concentrate on the training."

"Firebrand Training for me was total immersion into a pool of learning presented by an instructor that had an amazing depth of knowledge all at my disposal. I felt comfortable and supported diving straight into what ended up being an intake of the most information in such a short period of time that I have been in for many years.
At this moment in time I cannot fault the whole experience and I passed my CompTIA A+Network+ course :D"
Michael Wilcox, myself and friends.
"The Firebrand instructor's superb wit and entertaining course delivery, was surpassed only by the tremendous level of relevant and topical course content. Clearly a professional, clearly very knowledgeable, clearly top of the range quality. I chose Firebrand Training because of the speed of qualifying for an MCSE. "
A.F, Rabo.
"A very good training company."
