"After a bad "Accellerated Learning" experience with a competitor, I was dubious of the claims that Firebrand were making, however I took the plunge and I am glad I did! 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!"
Mark Scott, SEA (Group) Ltd..
Microsoft Exchange 2007 (7 Days) (7/7/2008 to 13/7/2008)

"An excellent course. The pacing was just right, with several long days of lectures, but with time always being made available for additional reading and lab work, which is essential on a course like this. Despite not completing all the exams yet (I decided to defer the Windows 2008 exams in order to get some more hands on experience with some of the areas I had previously had little exposure to), I will leave the course with a lot more confidence and knowledge than when I came. With a little bit more self study I should be able to successfully complete the exams. The instructor was excellent and made the course very enjoyable. He had vast amounts of real world experience which is always invaluable and was more than happy to elaborate on any questions raised. The whole team at Firebrand were friendly and made the whole prospect of being away from home for 2 weeks much easier than I had anticipated. The food was also varied and of a very high quality. Despite being very apprehensive about attending the course beforehand, I would not hesitate to recommend Firebrand as an effective training solution, and I hope to return to do additional courses in the future!"
Michael Dutton, CP Kelco UK Ltd.
Microsoft MCITP Enterprise Administrator (13 Days) (14/7/2008 to 26/7/2008)

"The accelerated and fully immersed learning was fantastic. There is no way I could have been as successful with the exams had I self-studied or been at home with the children every night! The Firebrand training method works. Don't be fooled - its hard work but worthwhile and rewarding."
Ken Thomson, RAF.

CompTIA A+/Network+ Certification (7 Days) (28/7/2008 to 3/8/2008)

"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.
