Stephen Joy, Peavey Electronics UK LTD.
Microsoft MCSE Vista & XP (14 Days) (23/6/2008 to 6/7/2008)

"Firebrands training method is addictive! Good balance of practical & theory - useful for the real world, as well as the exams. This is my 3rd course with you, and although I'm neither bright enough nor fast enough to keep up, I still learn far more than I'd imagine possible in the time available. And enjoy the mental challenge! Having achieved CCNA & MCSA with you, the insight into MCSE helped me to see whats involved, so that I no longer hanker after an unattainable dream!! And the wild rabbits outside my bedroom window each morning are an added bonus!"
Christine Schofield, Bromley Libraries.

John Painter, Plan-Net (contracted to NM Rothschild).

Nabeel Naeem, OPS International Ltd..
Microsoft MCSE Vista & XP (14 Days) (9/3/2009 to 22/3/2009)

"My background - 10 yr domestic 5 yr commercial IT support. I attended the 2 week MCSE and without a doubt it was tough, learning from 8am till 11pm is taxing but well worth it. I paid for the course myself and it was worth every penny, no regrets. MCSE in 14 days is not for IT noobs but I think the MCSA would be achievable to anyone with a passion for IT. I already have my sights on my next Firebrand Training course. Bring it on! "
Mark Judge, Myself.

G.H, Not Applicable.
Microsoft MCSE Vista & XP (14 Days) (12/10/2009 to 25/10/2009)

"This was my second time at Firebrand Training as I came back to upgrade my MCSA to a MCSE. I did 6 weeks pre-reading beforehand which helped me stay on top of the workload. My instructor was excellent - always staying behind after class to answer any questions. He has a real good teaching technique, making the most complex concepts make sense. And whats more he is a real friendly down-to-earth chap, who deserves a pint! The accommodation and facilities are really comfortable and the environment is excellent for accelerated learning as there are no distractions. If I can get the boss to stump up for the CCNA course or Server 2008 Upgrade, I will return (but not before a few months to relax first)."
Matt Courtman, Cromwell Community College.
Microsoft MCSE Vista & XP (14 Days) (23/6/2008 to 6/7/2008)

"I would reccomend Firebrand to anyone that wants to fast track their MCSE certification. The instructor had a good balance of real world and classroom experience and he was a good laugh outside of lectures. The food is fantactic, overall everyone works hard to make your life as easy as possible while there. It was hard work though! "
Kris Wolton, Orchard House Computers.
Microsoft MCSE Vista & XP (14 Days) (19/11/2007 to 2/12/2007)

"It is a brilliant course, but the intensity of it should not be underestimated. It is a long hard two weeks. The instructor was exceptional, using analogies to explain the difficult areas, and taking time to re-explain areas that weren't sinking in. All the staff are very helpful. "
Michelle Golightly, BAE SYSTEMS.
Microsoft MCSE Vista & XP (14 Days) (16/2/2009 to 1/3/2009)

"If you are looking for a company that knows how to deliver quality training in an enviroment condusive to learning then Firebrand would be the one I would recommend every time."
Tim Power, Power IT Solutions Ltd.
Microsoft MCSE Vista & XP (14 Days) (3/3/2008 to 16/3/2008)

"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., self-employed.
Microsoft MCSE Vista & XP (14 Days) (28/4/2008 to 11/5/2008)

"Dedication to training, focused course training and objectives, great learning environment made everything attempted positive and productive. "
Daryl Joyce, No-one.
Microsoft MCSE Vista & XP (14 Days) (15/9/2008 to 28/9/2008)

"This has been my second visit to a Firebrand training course, each time my experience has been productive, and beaten the competition hands down."
Mark Phelan, Take Two Interactive Software INC.
Microsoft MCSE Vista & XP (14 Days) (30/3/2009 to 12/4/2009)

"As I could not be out of the office for two consecutive weeks, I was able to split the training course in two parts. I have completed the first week and passed all three exams - an excellent way to achieve the qualifications I sought. You do need real world experience though as this course is too intense for beginners."
CM, Edenbrook Ltd.
Microsoft MCSE Vista & XP (14 Days) (23/6/2008 to 6/7/2008)

"A good way to learn subject in such a short space of time, be prepared before you attend, the more you read the easier it is when you are here. I enrolled on the MCSE course with Firebrand because I've been on a course before and was impressed by the delivery of the trainers."
N.K, EDS.
