CompTIA - IT Project+ - Prerequisites

Experience

IT Project+ certification provides an independent validation that the project manager has mastered the foundation-level concepts applicable to IT and traditional projects. IT Project+ certifies knowledge mastery equivalent to 2,000-hours project-management experience.

We interview all applicants for the course on their technical background, degrees and certifications held, and general suitability. If you get through this screening process, it means you stand a great chance of passing.

Firebrand Training is an immersive training environment. You must be committed to the course. The above prerequisites are guidelines, but many students with less experience have other background or traits that have enabled their success in accelerated training through Firebrand Training.

IT Project+ - Testimonials

"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.

"I had a really nice time and 13 days have past really quickly. Didn't find this course as intense as the MCSE back in 2006, but there were many new topics to cover like Windows 7, IIS7, IPv6 and Hyper-V. It was great to have a refresher in regards to AD and DNS. I feel that I have done extremely well and even though I did not pass all the exams, I can take much of what I have learnt and apply it the real world. I would highly recommend Firebrand Training to friends and colleagues. However, I would say that it really helps to have a good understanding in the topics before applying for a course. "
Ian Maxey, States of Guernsey.

"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.

"Once again the Firebrand experience has given me a lot of knowledge in such a very short space of time which has contributed to my certification. Much better than conventional, spread out courses."
Neil Hamshaw, Norfolk County Council.

"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.

"I will reflect on this post exam and provide further feedback through the website."
G.H, Not given.

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

"Intensive, but gets you up to speed quickly."
R.B, Unemployed.

"The training was outstanding, something i have not yet experienced at any other training centre. Definately worth the time and the effort."
Marko Tisler, NIL.

"Without a doubt the courses were fast and intense. But, I have really learnt and grasped the concept of the courses, especially the foundation course. I will strongly recommend friends, who wants to learn web development to attend Firebrand. The trainer is very attentive and clear which makes settling down to the courses much easier. I have thoroughly enjoyed it."
Danny Lim, NA.

"I came, I worked, I conquered!"
Cary Hendricks, Primalis Ltd.

"A very intensive but effective way to learn. I attended the MCSE course with Firebrand Training cause I had used them previously for my training needs."
P.A, John R Weir Ltd.

"Great SharePoint Professional course, great teacher!! The facilities were very good and being immersed in a subject for five days is a good way of learning it. Exams are never nice to take (unless you're an exam junky) but being immersed means the exams are very relevant and are taken when everything is fresh in your mind."
Darren Phipson, Clarita Solutions.

"Good training courses offered in a comfortable environment conducive to maximum learning with minimum fuss. I enrolled on the MCITP Enterprise Support Technician course because it was very well defined and has given me the qualifications I was after at this time with the minimum disruption to my life."
M.K, None.

"Excellent facility with a very good balance between the learning techniques employed. I chose Firebrand Training for my CCNA course because of the cost, course date, availability and on-site facilities (although not used)."
S.B, Royal Navy.

"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.

"Overall i had a positive experience and felt I learnt a lot and appreciated efforts by all the Staff."
Ian Colcomb, Netasq.

"As per usual you guys were great. Came knowing little and really only wanted to learn and wasn't that bothered with passing the exam - it was only important that I came away knowing more than I did at the start. Aced the exam though!"
Dai Williams, Howden.

"Excellent .NET 3.5 course content, learnt loads. Expect lack of sleep."
R.M, Agresso.

"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.

"I came, I worked, I conquered!"
Cary Hendricks, Primalis Ltd.

"Once again the Firebrand experience has given me a lot of knowledge in such a very short space of time which has contributed to my certification. Much better than conventional, spread out courses."
Neil Hamshaw, Norfolk County Council.

"Overall a very good learning experience and test taking experience."
A.K, AVEVA Solution Ltd.

"Once again the Firebrand experience has given me a lot of knowledge in such a very short space of time which has contributed to my certification. Much better than conventional, spread out courses."
Neil Hamshaw, Norfolk County Council.

"I felt that Firebrand were excellent from start to finish."
C.M, MOD.

"Initially I felt the VERY long hours and extended periods between theory and labs were counter intuitive. I must be wrong as I went from almost no SQL background to passing the exam. I couldn't be happier. The Firebrand Training was a superb lecturer too. If you have experience in the subject, and you're enthusiastic enough to eat / drink / sleep it, you'll do well at Firebrand!"
James Taylor, The University of Warwick.

"The accelerated learning CCNA course will develop existing skills but the speed of delivery of material is such that without prior experience you are unlikely to succeed. Take time to gain some experience and knowledge in the area of study prior to enrolling on a course."
J.E, MOD.

"Initially I felt the VERY long hours and extended periods between theory and labs were counter intuitive. I must be wrong as I went from almost no SQL background to passing the exam.

James Taylor, The University of Warwick.

"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.

"Fantastic experience, exceeded my expectations. Long days and hard work but was amazed at how much learnt in such a short time."
Shafeeq Norodien, BFI Ltd.
