PRINCE2® Foundation / Practitioner - Testimonials
"I had a great experience on my Prince 2 training course. The instructor was clear, exact, friendly and fun. Would recommend Firebrand to anyone."
Steve Psaila, Self Employed.
PRINCE2 Prince 2 Foundation / Practitioner (5 Days) (19/1/2009 to 23/1/2009)
"The course was exceptional for its quality and attendence to detail. Initially I was unprepared for the intense style of learning and it was a bit of a shock. The pace was very fast, but once you got used to it it became a lot easier. It was a very good way of tackiling a difficult subject."
EW, SELF.
PRINCE2 Prince 2 Foundation / Practitioner (5 Days) (25/9/2006 to 29/9/2006)
"With my work load it is impossible to get any certification done on my own. After learning about the 5 day boot camp and going through it I would strongly recommend it to everybody. "
Ranjina Wali, Tech Mahindra.
PRINCE2 Prince 2 Foundation / Practitioner (5 Days) (23/4/2007 to 27/4/2007)
"My Prince2 course experience met expectations, and I have never worked so hard in five days! Anyone thinking this is a holiday will be very upset, but will be very happy when you find everyone in the class passes the exams! On the one night off after the Foundation, we had two beers and everyone went back to their rooms to sleep! Great venue, great teacher and plenty of food and drink to keep you going!"
Paul Underwood, Ostrich Media Ltd.
PRINCE2 Prince 2 Foundation / Practitioner (5 Days) (22/10/2007 to 26/10/2007)
"Great Course, great instructor, very intensive but worth every penny."
R.P., DHL Exel Supply Chain.
PRINCE2 Prince 2 Foundation / Practitioner (5 Days) (28/4/2008 to 2/5/2008)
"Again the course and accomodation was excellent as expected and I will be returning in the near future. Thank you very much."
Andrew Leslie, DFID.
PRINCE2 Prince 2 Foundation / Practitioner (5 Days) (5/11/2007 to 9/11/2007)
"My experience at Firebrand* was overall positive - the fact that I could do the course on a residential basis meant I feel I got much more out of the course. I would use it again."
D.M., Martell Consultants.
PRINCE2 Prince 2 Foundation / Practitioner (5 Days) (19/12/2005 to 23/12/2005)
"If you have never considered this option before do not hesitate. The organisation, facilities and structure of the course was first class with a fabulous location setting. Although the course is very hard work, being residential allows you just to concentrate on the course and forget your normal day to day issues and the normal commute. Firebrand* was not the cheapest option but i think you will find the benefits outweigh any additional cost. Be prepared to work hard and then reap the rewards."
Simon Hessey, Redundant.
PRINCE2 Prince 2 Foundation / Practitioner (5 Days) (15/1/2007 to 19/1/2007)
"Isolation from work environment allowed me to focus on the training. The instructor was extremely knowledgable in his subject area. On the whole a pleasant learning experience."
AM, UTI wordwide (UK) Ltd.
PRINCE2 Prince 2 Foundation / Practitioner (5 Days) (9/6/2008 to 13/6/2008)
"The week of training was both intensive and challenging, I did enjoy every bit of my stay."
Michael Pedro, Kings College Hospital NHS Trust.
PRINCE2 Prince 2 Foundation / Practitioner (5 Days) (17/7/2006 to 21/7/2006)
"The trainer was excellent, I dont know how he did it but I kept on absorbing knowledge like a sponge even when I felt sure I couldn't take in anymore!!! The PRINCE 2 course is hard work but achieveable if you put the effort in - If I haven't passed it will be through no fault of Firebrand* who prepared us as fully as possible. My tip would be, just when you think its becoming impossible keep going and suddenly it will all slot into place."
Cheryl Eaton, T Mobile.
PRINCE2 Prince 2 Foundation / Practitioner (5 Days) (10/9/2007 to 14/9/2007)

Further, the course was designed to enable you to pass the exams without you getting too lost in what the material is all about.
The facilities and location were superb, allowing for a very comfortable environment in which to learn. Highly recommended."

Mike Wakler, Chromedata Limited.
PRINCE2 Prince 2 Foundation / Practitioner (5 Days) (31/10/2005 to 4/11/2005)
"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 Prince 2 Foundation / Practitioner (5 Days) (20/2/2006 to 24/2/2006)

The whole staff is here to help and make you successful."
