Microsoft MCTS .NET - Web Applications Training - Benefits

The MCTS Web program is a highly interactive 7-day developer class designed to teach Web Developers how to build intranet and Internet Web applications that use ASP.NET 2.0.

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.

They provide an excellent environment in which all your needs are met such that you can focus soley on the task in hand - namely learning.

"The course was very difficult (not hard, just draining), you dont know until you are actually there, but it is well worth it. I learnt so much more than any other course I have been on (over a dozen), and the environment and tests encourage you to push yourself further. Unless you are already an expert in the technology without extra reading you will not pass the exams, and preparing for them helps to cement the knowledge in your brain. The food is good and you do not go hungry with all the snacks provided. "
Christopher Gray, E-on UK.
Microsoft MCTS .NET - Web Applications (7 Days) (10/12/2007 to 16/12/2007)

"Very very intense, just when you think your day is done (usually when your evening lab is completed at 9pm) - you then get another 5 chapters to read for the following day. Total immersion that I have never experienced before; funnily enough after 2-3 days I became acclimatised; wil probably miss it when I get home : )"
Tony Clarke, Self Employed Contractor.
Microsoft MCTS .NET - Web Applications (7 Days) (10/12/2007 to 16/12/2007)

Michael Barber, Independent (contractor).
Microsoft MCTS .NET - Web Applications (7 Days) (29/10/2007 to 4/11/2007)

"When they say intensive they mean it! 8:30 to 8:00 every day and 3 or 4 hours of homework every day. I have not worked this hard in a long long time. The breaks we did get meant eating the very good food, far top fast to enjoy it! Bring your MP3 player if you need music to study as it's quiet and beautiful surroundings are sometimes a bit too quiet!"
Richard Young, UBS AG .
