CompTIA A+ - Only 4 Days
Seven reasons why you should sit your A+ course with Firebrand Training
- You'll be A+ certified in just 4 days. With us, you’ll be A+ trained in record time
- Our A+ course is all-inclusive. A one-off fee covers all course materials, exams, accommodation and meals. No hidden extras
- Pass A+ first time or train again for free. This is our guarantee. We're sure you'll pass your A+ course first time. But if you don’t, come back within a year, and only pay for accommodation and exams. Everything else is free
- You’ll learn more A+. A day with a traditional training provider generally runs from 9am – 5pm, with a nice long break for lunch. With Firebrand Training you’ll get at least 12 hours/day quality learning time, with your instructor
- You’ll learn A+ faster. Chances are, you’ll have a different learning style to those around you. We combine visual, auditory and tactile styles to deliver the material in a way that ensures you will learn faster and more easily
- You’ll be studying A+ with the best. We have won the Institute of IT Training’s "Training Company of the Year" a record three times. As well as winning many more awards, we’ve trained and certified 30,000 professionals, and we’re partners with all of the big names in the business
- You'll do more than study A+ courseware. We use practical exercises to make sure you can apply your new knowledge to the work environment. Our instructors use demonstrations and real-world experience to keep the day interesting and engaging

The A+ is an internationally recognized course that teaches hardware and software skills. It is developed directly from the CompTIA A+ and reflects the type of skills that are needed to excel in the role of a Computer Support Professional.
Reasons for A+ certification include career advancement, personal improvement, skills enhancement, and higher salaries:
- Certifications tend to lead to higher wages.
- Increased customer satisfaction and decreased support costs through improved service, increased productivity and greater technical self-sufficiency.
- Excellent return on training and certification investments by providing a standard method of determining training needs and measuring results.
- Reliable benchmark for hiring, promoting and career planning.
- Recognition and rewards for productive employees by validating their expertise.
- The combined CompTIA A+/Net+ certification can be utilized toward the achievement of Microsoft's MCSA certification.
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:
- 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 training. Courses that include certification come with a certification guarantee. Pass first time or train again for free (just pay for accommodation and exams on your return). We do not make any guarantees about personal successes or benefits of obtaining certification. Benefits of certification determined through studies do not guarantee any particular personal successes.
