  7. You'll do more than study MCPD .NET 3.5 courseware. We use labs, case studies and practice tests to make sure you can apply your new knowledge to the work environment. Our instructors use demonstrations and real-world experience to keep the day interesting and engaging.

"MCPD certification in 2 weeks... a lot of hard work but it is amazing, the amount you can learn in a short time. It is due to the excellent location and facilities but mainly our instructor. He is an excellent instructor who really knows his subject inside out." Andrew McGibbon (Firebrand MCPD certified)

"Firebrand provide a fantastic working environment and I can not speak highly enough of both the course instructor and all the other Firebrand employees. The food is top notch and definitely a highlight! William Marshall (Firebrand MCPD certified)

MCPD .NET 3.5 Enterprise Applications Developer - Testimonials

"Its a very tough and intensive 14 days. But the satisfaction you feel when you pass the exams is awesome. Firebrand Training does everything they possibly can to help you pass and make sure you understand the topics. I have learnt so much that its unbelievable."
Haroon Mohammed, Contractor.
Microsoft MCPD .NET 3.5 Enterprise Applications Developer (14 Days) (15/2/2010 to 28/2/2010)

"I decided to take the Microsoft MCPD Enterprise Developer course with Firebrand Training, because of the fact that it is an immersive study environment and also because the teaching staff was said to be very knowledgeable (and are, at least for the one we had)."
Racine Conde.
Microsoft MCPD .NET 3.5 Enterprise Applications Developer (14 Days) (4/1/2010 to 17/1/2010)

"Excellent course, very intense but to be expected on an accelerated course, very impressed with the course and the teaching."
Dave Mills, Steria LTD.
Microsoft MCPD .NET 3.5 Enterprise Applications Developer (14 Days) (10/5/2010 to 23/5/2010)

"A very hard 14 days work, but the quality of the instruction was second to none. "
Anthony Mason.
Microsoft MCPD .NET 3.5 Enterprise Applications Developer (14 Days) (10/5/2010 to 23/5/2010)

"I came very sceptical about what could be achieved in 14 days but had an amazing experience that exceeded my expectations. I am leaving today with my MCSE - nuff said! It's all down to a great instructor who left us with far more that just a piece of paper at the end of it and a great bunch of lads in my course who all pulled together to get through the collective highs and lows. Do your prereading and don't kid yourself this is easy - 8am till midnight in the labs every day is required - but put the effort in and it can be done. It's certainly not for beginners but if you have a good understanding of the concepts before you come you can do it. I wish you luck!"
Chris Dodge, Penta Consulting Ltd..
Microsoft MCSE 2003 (Windows 7) (14 Days) (17/3/2008 to 30/3/2008)

"I anticipated it would be tough but I didn't realise that 4.5 to 5 hours sleep a night would be the most you would get for two weeks. So be careful if you don't think you can hack two weeks without much sleep don't apply. Like the sign in the corridor says "only the committed should apply" Putting that aside the facilties and the extreme quality of the training, the enhusiasm, encyclopediac knowledge, the real-life experience, and the extreme focus of the instructor cannot be faulted. I cannot speak highly enough of the instructor. Not only is he a great teacher but he also was a brilliant man manager who ensured he got the best out of every delegate."
Rowland Keable , Self Employed.
Microsoft MCSE 2003 Certification (14 Days) (28/6/2004 to 11/7/2004)

"Food and accomodation was of a high standard, again! The instructor was a technical guru and kept the lesson fun. It was my second time here and yet again Firebrand have been exceptional!! Many thanks to you all!!!"
Mike Jones, Myself.
Microsoft MCSE 2003 (Windows 7) (14 Days) (20/4/2009 to 3/5/2009)

"You might not think it is possible to cram the whole MCSE into 14 days but believe me at Firebrand they manage it. Every day is 12-14 hours and after an exam is done you get very little time to recover before getting back into studying for the next one. This is not an easy course and is not for the faint-hearted. You need conviction and determination if you want to succeed. That said, the surroundings at Heythrop Park are beautiful, the staff are all very helpful and the food is amazing. If it wasnt for the all the learning and exams it would probably make for a nice holiday! I would definitely consider using Firebrand for my future training and development needs."
N.B..
Microsoft MCSE 2003 (Windows 7) (14 Days) (28/4/2008 to 11/5/2008)

"I was impressed by Firebrand*. I'm surprised by how much I can remember."
Anon..
Microsoft Certified Application Developer (MCAD) (7 Days) (8/12/2003 to 14/12/2003)

"Learning via Firebrand trainging is indeed very immersive and certainly accelerated. If you need to know a topic and you need to know it now then Firebrand is definately the training provider you should choose. It is not for the faint of heart... you have to sit an learn for the entire time you attend the camp... but that is an excellent way to get to know something quickly."
SD, Dolphin Music.
