Dynamics AX Advanced Developer Certification Testimonials

"The Firebrand concept of intensive training away from the potential distractions of day to day work and home life is very effective. Everyone involved is very professional and it is all about the certification. The days are intensive but the instructor was very well able to balance the content so we were not completely exhausted by the end of the week, but ready to take the test. I believe all course attendees successfully attained formal certification from the awarding body at the end of the course - you can not get more effective and efficient than that!"

"Der Kurs ist sehr hart, sehr viel Wissen in sehr kurzer Zeit. 15-16 Stunden taeglich. Es ist sehr hilfreich breite Vorkenntnisse zu haben. Ein sehr grosser Vorteil ist, dass die Teacher Praxiserfahrung haben und wissen worueber sie reden. Vor allem das nicht alle Antworten richtig sind, sondern in der Praxis falsch. Im Gegensatz zu anderen Anbietern wo reine Theoretiker sitzen, ist dies ein sehr grosser Vorteil. Die kleine Kursgroesse traegt dazu bei, dass das Lernen sehr effizient ist."
Thomas Freyer, Atos Worldline Processing.

"Good to be located outside of town. Will come back here as soon as needed."
Raymond Bleser, Mastercard.

"Great location, built in to the course environment. The detail and instruction was spot on and very good."
