"A fantastic instructor and I acheived a pass on foundation and practitioner having done no pre-reading or revision, just on his guidance alone. The lessons covered the whole syllabus in a 3 day period at a level which was easy to digest and understand. Instructor was throughly professional throughout and I look forward to learning from him in the future. A*"

"The Prince2 training with Fierbrand Training is one of the best on the market. During my foundation and practitioner course I had collegues from the EU as well. The training is intense, but Firebrand Trainging has exceptional trainers. Practically is no hidden corner of the book, or a complex Prince2 problem, which our instructor can't explain on a layman language. Thank you very much Firebrand! "

"Having never experienced this type of training before I wasn't sure what to expect. You immerse yourself in the topic for a number of days with an experienced and extremely knowledgeable trainer, along with fellow IT Pros who help out when required. Sure the days are long but you are covering a lot of topics in a short time and you can't fail to learn more than you ever thought you would. If you are serious about learning then there is probably no better way to learn."

However, we had an instructor whom made the best use of the time, giving frequent breaks and had a learning style that helped pass time by being so engaged. Our instructor was interesting and knowledgeable. He delivered training in an engaging manner which helped get the important details across, whilst providing relevant context which led to his experience shining through."

Exceptionally gifted."

"Very impressed with the dedication from the instructor and how well structured the sessions are. The course is very intense since it's only 3 days long, however, the quality of the training makes it worthwhile. I'd recommend going in person since you will find it much easier to focus and likely get more out of the course overall."

This was a resit for me, and I can confidently say that his efforts have helped me to affirm my knowledge and understanding.
