Sarah Perkins, Snikrep Consultants Ltd.
PRINCE2 Foundation/Practitioner (5 Days) (30/6/2008 to 4/7/2008)
"The whole Firebrand setup is very much focused on zero distraction learning. They provide an excellent environment in which all your needs are met such that you can focus soley on the task in hand - namely learning. At times it can be tiring, even exhausting, but if you are prepared to put the work in, the rewards are potentially massive. I would certainly consider taking another Firebrand course but not until the intensity of this one has faded from memory!"

"It was a well spent, long 4 days but worth it for the end result. I would definately come back again for future courses as you learn so much in such little time, wheres as self tutition is a long process and laboures. Where as here it is done in so little time."
Ryan Harrison, TNT Express ICS.
CompTIA A+ (4 Days) (30/6/2008 to 3/7/2008)
"A boot camp is never going to be easy but having a great lecturer with real world experience and advice is invaluable. It is also a benifit to have all meals provided and scheduled into the day so that you can concerntrate entirely on the course. The people I met on the course were great and have kept in touch with them. To ensure sucesses make sure you do some proper study beforehand but at minimum what you get sent. I did hardly any and still passed but I am sure I would have got more out of it had been able to schedule bit more work.
"
Richard Whjght, TSG.
Microsoft Dynamics NAV (6 Days) (28/7/2008 to 2/8/2008)
"I did not know what to expect, as I had not been on a boot camp before. The experience was good, the focus was on learning and getting certifications. It was very hectic, lectures from 8.30am till 10.30pm every day with 2x45mins breaks for food, studying afterwards till early hours. An objective that was realised in comfortable inspired surroundings. "
AO, Gyrosoft Applied Solutions Ltd.
Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 (8 Days) (20/7/2008 to 27/7/2008)

Passed my exams with flying colours and I put that down to the great instructor as well as the constructive atmosphere. I will definately return for more!"

Jez Draper, Harland IT Solutions Ltd.
EC-Council CEH (5 Days) (23/6/2008 to 27/6/2008)
"This is not a course for people who struggle to pick up new ideas quickly, the pace is very fast and the exams really test your knowledge. Our trainer was outstanding and answered all the questions we could throw at him, and also gave us lots of valuable advice from his real-world experience. He also contribute to a fun and positive atmosphere amoung the group. Lessons last all day from around 8:30am to any time in the evening (our earliest finish was around 10:30), with occasional short breaks, making the course very intensive. However, I believe everyone in our group has learned a huge amount and I would recommend the course to any IT professional who learns quickly, isnt afraid of some hard work and can function on little sleep!"
Karen Newitt, Prior Analytics.
Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 (8 Days) (20/7/2008 to 27/7/2008)

Mark Stead, GE Healthcare.
CompTIA A+/Network+ Certification (7 Days) (30/6/2008 to 6/7/2008)
"My experience at Firebrand Training, provided a highly focused review of the key exam topics. I would readily recommend this form of training to individuals that have a fundamental understanding of networking concepts and Cisco Technologies; for those new to the industry, however, pick up a book before attending: the speed and intensity of the course will otherwise kill you."
Gordon Speck, Stockport College.
Cisco CCNA Certification (6 Days) (30/6/2008 to 5/7/2008)
"Certainly this was an experience and a half. Never done any boot camps before, but once you are in there the intensity of it all does hit you at first, then you adapt and focus yourself to the training/studying.
Relaxing/chilling out was very little as you are constantly working. If you want an environment to study without disruption, then Firebrand Training is the place, but be prepared it does knacker you out though!"
SM, Ascribe Plc.
Microsoft Exchange 2007 (7 Days) (7/7/2008 to 13/7/2008)
"Instruction and training facilities were excellent and provided a great learning environment. A very friendly atmosphere."
Owen Griffiths, Salford City Council.
EC-Council E|CSA & L|PT (5 Days) (7/7/2008 to 11/7/2008)
"Firebrand offered me a great method of training with good assurance of passing the exams. The course was outstanding and the trainer has to be the best I have ever experienced. His knowledge and expertise was unbelievable and this made him the perfect trainer. I would definately come back here again for future courses. The food and hospitality was excellent."
Chris Roche, Unemployed.
PRINCE2 Foundation/Practitioner (5 Days) (7/7/2008 to 11/7/2008)
"Firebrand Training have way exceeded my expectations. I never imagined I could describe such an experience as enjoyable, but it has been GREAT, even if incredibly tiring. I could not have been better prepared for the exam in any other way. I absolutely would not hesitate to recommend Firebrand."
Rudy Taylor, Me.
