MCITP Business Intelligence Developer - Testimonials

"Accelerated learning is something which I think works for me and Firebrand Training sold and delivered this concept very well. Overall I was very impressed and would definately use Firebrand Training again for courses in the future."
Gareth Withers, Forth Ports PLC.

"The facilities and the location were excellent. All staff were friendly and very helpful - I would recommend Firebrand training to all interested in a career in IT. During my stay we had some young students in the CompTIA A+ class - who were clearly not interested in IT and their actions were disruptive to the studying process and other students (including my colleague) who did want to study found it very difficult. But it is a testament to the instructor that the course continued and stayed on track. I would suggest that only students who are interested in pursuing a career in IT should attend "
Lee Adler, TNT.

"Well, this is my third experience at Firebrand and without a doubt it is the best experience I had to study for all my certifications. Teaching = Highly Informative Learning = Accelerated/Intense (but its all worth it) Thanks to all the training and operational staff."
Suleyman Kandanli, Smartodds Ltd.

"Great SharePoint Professional course, great teacher!! The facilities were very good and being immersed in a subject for five days is a good way of learning it. Exams are never nice to take (unless you're an exam junky) but being immersed means the exams are very relevant and are taken when everything is fresh in your mind."

"A very effective learning method for those who prefer a high intensity, shared environment and for those with limited time"
Mark Chilton, Draypool.

"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."
Damian Conrad, Microsoft.
