G.T, Britax.

Martyn Thomas, Alterian Technology.

"Intense"

Friendly, professional and competent staff and a distraction free environment mean you have every chance to make your goals a reality. For the MCSE - the days are long and you have to be prepared to work hard - but its oh so worth it... Highly recommend the whole Firebrand team and experience!"
Nick Abbott, The National Youth Agency.

"Long days, intense training. Best way to study. Firebrand Training gives this with a smile."
David Mock, Global Crossing.

"Highly experienced instructors led a very structured and informative condensed course. They were always on hand for questions and the review sessions were excellent, leading to myself passing the exam."
Jonathan Hayden, Chas A Blatchford and Sons.

"Very positive experience overall. But I would have achieved more if I had met or even exceeded the pre-reqs. The overall importance of this was NOT really made clear to me before I attended the boot camp. "
Simon Waldron, Applied Princiles.eu.

"It has been tough two weeks, but I enjoyed it. The instructor was very knowledgeable and with a sense fo humour. I feel the holes I had in my knowledge have been filled and am looking forward to getting back to work and trying out all the new (for me) and exiting stuff I learned here. Many thanks to the Firebrand Training instructor."
Victoria Avane, Self employed.

David Mock, Global Crossing.

"Very intensive course, very hard. Quite interesting. "
Juan Jose Laplana Rodriguez, EDS, an HP company.

"An excellent course, I learnt so much. Although it was an intensive course it was worth putting the effort in to gain so much knowledge. "
Christopher, Serco.

"The course provided an indepth and detailed explanation of all the major components in SQL 2005 and condensed it into a 4.5 day period in lightning speed. A shock to the system the learning style initially is questionable and difficult to get to grips with, but as the days move on I can feel myself learning and absorbing more information, if anyone would have told me I would be able to digest a 10 day course in only 4.5 (with any degree of competency)I would have told them they were mad, But the course delivers exactly what it says on the tin, efficient, speedy and indepth learning."
Kevin Kinsella, Xerox UK Ltd.

"The Firebrand Training instructor is a great instructor! I only want to take classes taught by Firebrand Training instructors. "
C.A, 123345456.

"The course was very well run with an excellent instructor. Two of us went on the course and two passed. We would not of passed without Firebrand."
Keith Gyford, First Connections Limited.

"Very intensive course, very hard. Quite interesting. "
Juan Jose Laplana Rodriguez, EDS, an HP company.

"It was really great experience but to be frank we need to be well prepared to learn more as we have very less time in hand to prepare the entire concepts."
V.N, Nil.
