"Our lecturer had a very good insight into C# and and other areas like SQL and went into a lot of detail which is helpful when trying to learn, he did a good job in clarifying understanding and helping others when questions were asked. Course was well structured and not too much theory or information with a good balance of practice to embed information "

"My experience with Firebrand has been very positive, with all the information that is given to us attendees of the course being very useful in the long term. Its also very nice to have a teacher that you can speak to during breaks about non-related work stuff so your brain can take a break from IT as well, which is something I did not experience when at school and sixth form."
Josh Durant, Custard Technical Services. (22/2/2021 (Monday) to 25/2/2021 (Thursday))
"Great course, I have learnt a lot. I would recommend it to everyone."

"Knowledgeable, well spoken and relatable instructor. The instructor explained difficult concepts clearly and provided good examples to help us understand the material. He also discussed real-world examples to help solidify how the concepts are applied in the field.
There were a few technical issues with the remote learning and remote labs, but overall a great experience, especially so when considering the current situation with COVID-19."
JE, Mitchells & Butlers. (4/5/2020 (Monday) to 7/5/2020 (Thursday))
"I would highly recommend taking up a course with Firebrand because the way the course is delivered is very helpful and useful for someone who either has no knowledge or some knowledge. The instructors do everything they can to ensure everyone is learning and is always on hand to help anyone who is struggling with anything. Everyone on the course is also very helpful and in the same position as they want to learn to. So there is not just the instructor but the class as a whole to assist. The facility is very nice and I will definitely be coming back for any future courses I attend. "
