At Firebrand, we specialise in accelerated training that helps you become competent, confident, and certified at twice the speed.
To accommodate the needs of our learners, we're introducing 3 Firebrand Study Modes to choose from:
- Residential
- Online Live
- City Centre
Regardless of the one you choose, you will be taught through the same Firebrand Lecture | Lab | Review method by certified instructors who leave no question unanswered. Our courses also include exam vouchers covered by your Certification Guarantee.
Which Study Mode is right for you?
Let's take a look.
1. Residential
First, you can choose to train at our purpose-built centres in the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, and Northern Europe.
Whether you live nearby or are travelling, our distraction-free environments help you immerse yourself in the curriculum and achieve your exams.
Residential study includes hotel accommodations from the night before your course starts, meals, and 24-hour lab access, among other perks!
Who is Residential for?
- If you want to train efficiently in a distraction-free environment,
- If you prefer an immersive learning experience away from your daily routine,
- If you're travelling and want to maximise your time in the UK, Germany, and the Netherlands,
Residential study could be for you!
2. Online Live
On the other hand, if you want to have our efficient, award-winning training experience from the comfort of your own home, you could benefit from Online Live study.
This study mode is not watching pre-recorded videos or death by PowerPoint—it's an engaging experience taught live on our online platform. You can watch the instructor in real time, see their computer, ask questions, listen to your peers in the classroom where this is being taught, and contribute to all study activities.
Who is Online Live for?
- If you cannot travel or prefer not to,
- If you live far from physical training centres,
- If you need to balance the course with other commitments such as work and parenting,
Online Live could be what you need!
3. City Centre
Finally, if you need to balance work with personal commitments but would prefer to learn in a classroom environment, we recommend City Centre study.
These courses are taught from 9am to 5pm at the modern facilities of our parent company, BPP, in London and Manchester.
Who is City Centre for?
- If you live close to these major cities and would prefer to commute rather than live at the training centre for the duration of your course,
- If you prefer a less intense study experience without extended hours,
- If you need to juggle personal and professional commitments and would prefer to keep your evenings free,
City Centre could be for you!
