"A great training centre and a focused way to learn MCSE if your willing to put the effort in."
P.D, NYK Logistics.

"Great SharePoint Professional course, great teacher!! The facilities were very good and being immersed in a subject for five days is a good way of learning it. Exams are never nice to take (unless you're an exam junky) but being immersed means the exams are very relevant and are taken when everything is fresh in your mind."
Darren Phipson, Clarita Solutions.

"Very good course. I learnt a lot and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Firebrand Training.."
IV, MOD.

"The CCNA course is no doubt difficult to say the least, but with the instructors help Ive managed to pass the CCENT and CCNA, and I've never had any experience with Cisco equipment before! The course is thorough, well taught. Just make sure you cram in enough reading and sleep to perform at your best! 10/10 for this course!!"
Jaimin Rao, unemployed.

"The Firebrand Training experience is not one to be taken lightly. As they say you get out of it what you put in. Be prepared for long days and not much sleep. The rewards for putting in the hours and for making sure you understand the materials will ensure you leave Firebrand with the certifications you or your company came for. Well worth the effort do it!!!"
Daniel Thompson, JENDEV.

"The MCITP Server Administrator course does what it says on the tin......it gets you certified!!!!! but be prepared for late nites, early mornings and lots of hard work!"
Nicholas Jones, South Hook LNG.

"Helpful staff. Clean training center"
V.C, Serco.

"I felt that Firebrand were excellent from start to finish."
C.M, MOD.

"Excellent training environment, in a nut shell PERFECTION."
William Evans, mars chocolate.

"I was very happy with the Prince 2 course at Firebrand. It went very quickly from little/no knowledge to exam passing potential. (I hope - yet to take Prince2 Practitioner exam!)"
Kevin Ball, Ministry of justice.

"Before I attended Firebrand Training, I was a hard worker but i used to show my knowledge when needed and at a certain time.However now i know how it feels to actually go for an exam and putting as much work as i can within a short amount of time could not be really difficult."
Moayad Ahmed, unemployed.

"Second time visiting. Firebrand Training seem to be going from strength to strength."
Will Sheldon, kings college school.

"This course provides a great environment for ‘Zero distraction’ studying. The CISSP CBK covers a huge amount of material that would have taken much longer to cover if you were to study at home (particularly given the demands of work and family). I feel that whilst the marketing material claims that pre-reading isn’t required (and to be honest, it isn’t essential), covering the 10 domains yourself before the course would help enormously. That being said, it is possible to complete the course without pre-reading, just expect to work extremely hard."
Ben Atkins, wirral council.

"Extremely hard work and intensive but if you stand the pace it is a very effective and quick method of learning."
C.P, ScS Upholstery.

"My SharePoint instructor was excellent. I don't remember ever being on a course with such a knowledgeable instructor who knew the subject matter and most related areas too! But take a kettle or book into the Premier Lodge! "
Terry Goff, Self Employed.

"Put in as much preparation as you can before you arrive as there is no time wasted once you arrive! Our tutor did an excellent job of ensuring the long hours and intense effort put in was rewarded. Make sure you are confident you cover the course prerequisites - there is no time to cover any gaps outside of the curriculum."
Juston Buchanan, PrimS Limited.
