APMG - Prince2 Foundation / Practitioner - Overview
"Fantastic - I have never learnt so much in such a short period of time. It was hard work, extremely intense but a lot of fun." Melanie Potts, Siemens (Firebrand Prince2 certified)
"By far the best training I have had in both the US and the UK. The price of the course was well worth the money - the facilities were nice, the food was good, and the instructor was great. I have already recommended Firebrand to all of my co-workers!" Dan Sochacki, HSBC (Firebrand Prince2 certified).

PRINCE2 Foundation/Practitioner (5 Days) (8/9/2008 to 12/9/2008)
"I would recommend this Firebrand* environment at Heythorp Park for intense study courses like "Prince 2". I attended the course with very little reading time prior to attending, however the set up here gave me the opportunity to focus, and I passed the Foundation with flying colours and confident that it is the same for the Practioner exam.

PRINCE2 Foundation/Practitioner (5 Days) (1/9/2008 to 5/9/2008)
"Our lecturer had the patience of a saint and found the perfect balance between working hard, and laughing and having fun. At no point did I feel I couldnt ask a question about something I didnt understand. It was the most intensive learning experience Ive ever had, but in over 20 years of education it was also the most enjoyable.
The feeling of satisfaction for completing the course and understanding the material is second to none. It was an intensive week but it was still sad to say goodbye at the end of it all. Firebrand* have got the balance just right and I would recommend them to anyone looking to complete a training course.
And of course I couldnt finish without mentioning the impressive quality of the food and kitchen staff. 3 delicious meals a day cooked to perfection and served with a friendly smile. They certainly are an asset to the Trianing Camp team."
David Hartley, Gurit.
PRINCE2 Foundation/Practitioner (5 Days) (16/7/2007 to 20/7/2007)
"Firebrand* was an experience never to be forgotten. The material and ambience of the center was condusive to learning at the pace that an accelerated learning programme demands.
I was fortunate that I had a great instructor and our group of students got along very well.
If I fail, it will not be because I did not get the proper instruction."
Reginald Abrahams, Accconsult.

The staff, the instructor, the food, the facilities, the course material were all above and beyond my expectations. These all made it easy for me to focus on my goal and concentrate on the work."
Kunle Ibidun, France telecom.
PRINCE2 Foundation/Practitioner (5 Days) (18/12/2006 to 22/12/2006)
"The intensive one week course was ideal for me as home study is not really an option as I am not a studeous person. It is tough, you certainly do the studying that all the other students email says that you will do.
If the class all get on this is great. After our first exam we all ended up in the bar for a well earned beer or several and a few games of snooker. I think it is good to have one night that you don't think about the course, as you tend to forget about the outside world and tend to only think about the course."
Robin Pettifer, Varian Medical Systems.
PRINCE2 Foundation/Practitioner (5 Days) (20/2/2006 to 24/2/2006)
"Although the Prince2 course involved long hours of intense studying, the lessons were delivered in such a way that it was actually enjoyable! I am now Prince 2 qualified, and I have already had encouraging responses from potential employers."
Philip Musson, Self Employed.
