"The combination of a master trainer, exceptional facilities, very effective training methods and "depravation" from environmental factors (e.g. travel, social etc) have contributed towards this being the most beneficial training experience I've ever had."
Christoph Malherbe. (1/11/2010 (Monday) to 10/11/2010 (Wednesday))

"It was an intense few weeks and if you don't do the work on a daily basis, then I would still suggest coming along to the course and deferring the exams as there is a lot of extra information that is not in the exam books that you will find very useful."
Neil Poole, Central Networks. (2/11/2009 (Monday) to 12/11/2009 (Thursday))

"The MCPD course is full on. There is not much time to think as you have to cover a vast amount of information in a short time. Expect a lot of late nights. Do a bit of pre-reading. But be assured though that the staff are excellent and do everything in their power to get you through the course. If your are having a late night so are they. Highly recommended. Cheers "
I.M. (21/9/2009 (Monday) to 1/10/2009 (Thursday))

"I found the Firebrand Training experience to be rather more taxing than I had believed possible, the word intense really does mean intense."
Paul Foley. (21/9/2009 (Monday) to 1/10/2009 (Thursday))

"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. (21/9/2009 (Monday) to 1/10/2009 (Thursday))
