"This is the second training plus certification course I am doing with Firebrand and I have had a great experience. The instructor Richard M. on this CISSP course was great and extremely knowledgable, had a great sense of humour which helped to make this vast and dry topic very interesting. The logistics of the course were well arranged and the staff were extremely supportive, all of which goes towards a great trainee experience."
