Day Course
Microsoft MCTS .NET 2.0 Training - Overview
If you are developing .NET Framework 2.0 applications that use Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 or creating Web applications that use ASP.NET 2.0, the Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS) credentials highlights your job role, featuring your specific area of expertise. Now you can easily distinguish yourself as an expert in Windows development, Web application development, or distributed applications development. There are three MCTS certification paths:
Technology Specialist: .NET Framework 2.0 Web Applications
You will have the skills necessary to build interactive, data-driven Web applications that use ASP.NET 2.0 for both intranet and Internet uses.
Technology Specialist: .NET Framework 2.0 Windows Applications
You will have the skills necessary to build rich client applications that target the Windows Forms platform using the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.
Technology Specialist: .NET Framework 2.0 Distributed Applications
You will have the skills necessary to develop, implement, and deploy XML Web services, .NET Framework remoting, Enterprise Services, and Message Queuing technology.
Our twelve-day (12) Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS) Training Camp
- Allows you to achieve your certifications in a fraction of the time of 'traditional training' while delivering industry-leading exam passing percentages
- Helps students grasp complex technical concepts more easily by identifying and catering to individual student learning styles through a mixed visual, auditory and kinaesthetic-tactual delivery system
- Enhances retention by employing accelerated learning techniques focused on committing information to long-term memory
Microsoft MCTS .NET 2.0 Training - Benefits
The combined MCTS program is a highly interactive 12-day developer class designed to teach Web, Windows, and Distributed Application Developers how to build interactive, data-driven middle-tier and client applications, targeting the Windows Forms platform using the .NET Framework 2.0, produce intranet and Internet Web applications that use ASP.NET 2.0, and develop business and data layer applications that use such technologies as Web Services, Remoting, Enterprise Services, and Queuing.
Other accelerated training providers rely heavily on lecture and independent self-testing and study.
Effective technical instruction must be highly varied and interactive to keep attention levels high, promote camaraderie and teamwork between the students and instructor, and solidify knowledge through hands-on learning.
Firebrand Training provides instruction to meet every learning need, including
- Intensive group instruction
- One-on-one instruction attention
- Hands-on labs
- Lab partner and group exercises
- Question and answer drills
- Independent study
This information has been provided as a helpful tool for candidates considering certification. Benefits of certification determined through studies do not guarantee any particular personal successes. Firebrand Training provides a guarantee of obtaining certification at the camp, but does not make any guarantees about personal successes or benefits of obtaining certification.

Matthew Shoebridge, Hampshire Medical Services.
Cisco CCNA Certification (6 Days) (22/9/2008 to 27/9/2008)
"I arrived at Heythrop armed with warnings and general foreboding of people who had trodden the path before so had read the course manuals and played about with CRM before arriving.
The course is intense yet rewarding. 17 hour days were initially a shock but by day 7 are second nature. The instructor was top notch and full of real world advice. The attendees were from a wide range of backgrounds yet everyone pulled together for revision sessions which helped massively to pass the exams. In short, hard work but rewarding. One tip, do not arrive without preparing."
