Master CIW Designer - Testimonials

Neil Poole, Central Networks.

"Helpful staff. Clean training center"
V.C, Serco.

"I never believed in short-intense courses before and half-way through was not sure, suddenly it all clicked into place and came clear!"
M.K, Delarue.

"I love it."
Joe Brown, PAConsulting.

"I came here to learn something and I certainly did. The facilities and the stuff were extremely supporting. Thanks guys! It s a lot of work - but worth the time and money. "
L.K, ZHAW.

"I decided to take the Microsoft MCPD Enterprise Developer course with Firebrand Training, because of the fact that it is an immersive study environment and also because the teaching staff was said to be very knowledgeable (and are, at least for the one we had)."
Racine Conde, Unemployed.

"Quite regress & effective. The only focus is to study, study & study with no distractions. "
Prashant Mahajan, Citigroup.

"Extremely hard work and intensive but if you stand the pace it is a very effective and quick method of learning."
C.P, ScS Upholstery.

V.D, Cardif Pinnacle.

"Since I started my first course with Firebrand, I cant get any Training company that match the quality and real life business studies. Hard work but great results. No doubt in my mind your the best. Firebrand Training offers good quality training."
Andre Mellet, Universal Telecom.

"Quite regress & effective. The only focus is to study, study & study with no distractions. "
Prashant Mahajan, Citigroup.

"The course, facilities and trainer really provided a great environment for learning in. An intensive but rewarding time!"
Michael Rowe, HSBC Merchant Services.

"My Firebrand experience was tough. You need a good foundation of knowledge and the ability to learn quickly to go with it. The classes sometimes feel that they are going at 100 miles an hour. If you can keep up it is great. The trainers really know their stuff and bring together all of the components in such a way that it makes really good sense. I learnt loads, over and above my considerable industry experience, and of course where else can you achieve MCSE in 2 weeks?"
Martin Bowker, unemployed.

"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.

"Really enjoyed the course, it was long hours but I knew it would be a lot of work. The instructor was really good and I found it amazing how well I absorbed all the information. He came up with really good ways of remembering things. It was well worth all the effort as I'm now qualified after just 2 weeks! Id recommend the course to anyone! I chose Firebrand because I had been wanting to do the MCITP EA training for a while and had been looking at self learning. Due to a lot of travel and long hours with work I couldn't commit to this so knew that a boot camp would be much better suited. I knew somebody that had been on the MCSE 2003 course about 18 month before and he said he would recommend it. K3 have also sent a number of people on Microsoft Dynamics courses and they are on the Firebrand website so going with Firebrand made complete sense. "
Gareth Kee, None.

"Excellent instructor, good facilities."
S.R, Unemployed.

"Expect to work hard in this total immersion environment and you will achieve your expectations. I chose Firebrand Training for my Microsoft SharePoint 2007 training needs as I had a previous good experience with them."
B.B, MOD.

"Even with my limited experience of the .NET Framework and ASP.NET 3.5 I was very impressed with the amount of information the Firebrand Training course enabled me to take in and understand. After attending the course I am now even more enthused to improve my development skills for years to come."
J.P, Auros Limited.

"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.

"Fast and Furious learning but amazing how much did actually go in. I felt completely overwhelmed at first but enjoyed this way of learning."
Jane Letchford, alliance medical ltd.

"Its been a hard but rewarding week! We have had some fun but the course has Phil has made this course a good learning experience. Thanks very much "

Lars Eriksson, Systemasis.

"The training was very professional and delivered by an expert. the facilities exceeded expectation."
Ricky Hare, Damovo UK.

"The word immerse definitely holds, it was a very positive training experience where you can be in an environment that promotes rapid learning with the instructor on-hand pretty much whenever you need. Definitely recommended."
Shaun Whyte, Trader Media Group.

"Firebrand Training is the way forward, whether you are approaching a topic with entry level knowledge or just want to get the qualification for what you already know, this is the place to do it! I've been on four courses at Firebrand now and after each one I've come away with the qualification and knowing a vast amount more than I did. Expect long days and a lot of time in the classrom; but if you can accept that, you will get the result at the end of the week!"
Russ Cashman, Reliance High-Tech.

"Having come from a background of "I'll learn by playing with it", I found this course to be a fantastic eye-opening experience. The pace is fast, but with sufficient self-motivation to keep focused, gliding through the qualifications is a breeze! Its a lot to take in at once, but with instructors who are demonstrably proficient in their field, you know you are covering exactly what you need. I would come back, definitely!"
Guy Bullivant, Nobody.
