"Intense CCNA training course led by excellent instruction, comfortable lodgings and nice food. I chose Firebrand training because exams were included at the end of training, rather than booking them yourself some time later. (or not)"
David Stafford, dstl.

"Very hard work, but well worth it if you are prepared to make the commitment. "
Andrew Wojcik, Soltec Computer Systems Ltd.

"I wasn't prepared for how intense the course was going to be. I had read the previous testimonials from other people and felt that because I was used to working long hours I would be prepared for how hardcore the learning environment was going to be... but I wasn't. You need to be prepared to be cut off from the rest of the world for the whole week!!"
Natasha Rupniak, The DX Group.

"Their training and facilities motto and advertising was all definitely lived-up to! No doubt."
Mike Bird, NTL.

"an excellent course. Fast Pace!!"
Brenda Worger, health industry.

"A very good training company."
Harry Bergen, IBS AG.

"I came here to learn something and I certainly did. The facilities and the stuff were extremely supporting. Thanks guys! It s a lot of work - but worth the time and money. "
L.K, ZHAW.

"The lecturing/delivery of the SSCM course content was excellent. However I feel the 3 day course duration is way too short for what should be at least a 5 day session. The experience was very depressing and draining due to the simulation material and the nature of the slow and excessive lab simulations that I found very frustrating. I so very nearly flew home before start of play day two."
Rickard Robilliard, States of Guernsey.

"The Firebrand Training is a really good instructor. Very helpful and knowledgeable. The course itself is really hard going though and I really needed to study beforehand to pass the exams which I didn't realize until I attended. I saw some feedback saying that it was 12 hour days - it was more like 16-17 hour days."
B.M, Marathon Oil.

"Good training. Made me more aware of the security side of IT"
A.W, Morrisons.

"Firebrand and specifically our trainer were fantastic, and the formula enabled me to achieve the qualifications I came for and set me up to complete my MCPD."
Thomas Payne, Myself.

"Due to my hectic work schedule working around the world for Honeywell I do not get the opportunity to dedicate random days over a long period for training in centres or self study. Firebrand was the only company I found who was able to supply a bootcamp environment with training and accommodation in Europe that met the training and exam criteria for the MCITP(EA). This 13 day course is not a course for the 9 to 5 worker. To pass the exam you require hard work and dedication from yourself and your instructor. Firebrand was able to supply the right facilities and people to do the job. I chose Firebrand Training because of bootcamp training and the ability to do exams directly after the course."
Kurt Forster, Honeywell.

"The course was very hard but very well managed. Microsoft recommend 42 weeks of training for the MCSE. Firebrand has managed to fit that into 2 weeks without missing a step."
G.H, Not Applicable.

"Excellent facility with a very good balance between the learning techniques employed. I chose Firebrand Training for my CCNA course because of the cost, course date, availability and on-site facilities (although not used)."
S.B, Royal Navy.

"Its been a hard but rewarding week! We have had some fun but the course has Phil has made this course a good learning experience. Thanks very much "
Philip Zeligman, AZENT Ltd.

"Firebrand has exceeded my utmost expectations in training. The Cisco Certified Network Professional course instructor was of an incredibly high standard of both professionalism and technical expertise. "
M.M, ITPS.

"Initially I felt the VERY long hours and extended periods between theory and labs were counter intuitive. I must be wrong as I went from almost no SQL background to passing the exam. I couldn't be happier. The Firebrand Training was a superb lecturer too. If you have experience in the subject, and you're enthusiastic enough to eat / drink / sleep it, you'll do well at Firebrand!"
James Taylor, The University of Warwick.

"My Firebrand experience was tough. You need a good foundation of knowledge and the ability to learn quickly to go with it. The classes sometimes feel that they are going at 100 miles an hour. If you can keep up it is great. The trainers really know their stuff and bring together all of the components in such a way that it makes really good sense. I learnt loads, over and above my considerable industry experience, and of course where else can you achieve MCSE in 2 weeks?"
Martin Bowker, unemployed.

"The accelerated learning CCNA course will develop existing skills but the speed of delivery of material is such that without prior experience you are unlikely to succeed. Take time to gain some experience and knowledge in the area of study prior to enrolling on a course."
J.E, MOD.

"Excellent course with well informed and helpful instructor."
Fergus Prone, The Danwood Group Limited.

"I found the training experience to be challenging but ultimately very highly satisfying, it was carried out in a professional manner by an instructor who clearly had a comprehensive understand of the Windows Server 2008 technologies he was teaching. I chose Firebrand Training because I had received recommendations from associates who had previously attended the MCITPEA course."
Chris Moignard, Ogier.

"While I did not gain my MCITP EA (yet) i did pass all the 4 pre req modules. This has given me a lot of certification for a 24 year old! I will be back in January to resit the big exam. It is very hard work, but you are given the best possible chance. I look forward to returning to Firebrand Training to get that final elusive exam pass."
Robert Baxter-Kaneen, Kingshott School Trust Limited.

"As per usual you guys were great. Came knowing little and really only wanted to learn and wasn't that bothered with passing the exam - it was only important that I came away knowing more than I did at the start. Aced the exam though!"
Dai Williams, Howden.

"What a great couple of weeks - but not for the uncommitted. I achieved more than I thought I would, but not quite as much as I would have liked. Got one more exam to sit as I complete this, so heres hoping! If passed I'll be one Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) off the MCSE (and only missed that by 19 points - due to tiredness more than anything else). Still, the ground work is all there, and the knowledge is not going anywhere! Would strongly recommend the Firebrand way to colleagues and friends, but go into it with your eyes open, and give it your all!"
John Goult, Myself.

"Excellent! Effective and focused learning with certification a bonus."
E.D, British Energy.
