"My eight days at Firebrand on the Dynamics CRM course was an intensive and extreme learning experience. Long days, with huge amounts of information to cram in, but all made possible by the instructors engaging, enthusiastic and well balanced approach to training. I couldn't recommend Firebrand, and especially this course, highly enough. The accommodation was good, the food great and plentiful, the staff helpful and courteous. There was also a much needed, never ending supply, of coffee. So overall, a brilliant experience, and I leave Firebrand knowing rather more about Dynamics CRM, than I did on Saturday the 6th of February. I chose the Dynamics CRM course with Firebrand because it was recommended to me internally at Microsoft by a number of people."
