"The training was excellent. The instructor did a great job at keeping us all interested throughout the 5 days. The balance of presentation/practice questions/group activities was spot on. The practice questions Jack had generated were harder than those in the exam but I think this was really good as the more challenging questions encouraged us on to study hard and prompted us to refer to the course materials which helped reinforce what we were learning. I really appreciated that on the last day the instructor ran through some easier questions just before the exam, this gave everyone some confidence and put us in a positive frame of mind ready for the exam. The instructor is a credit to Firebrand and I could not have asked for a better trainer. In addition to providing an exceptional level of training, his warm personality and great sense of humour helped make the week a really positive and enjoyable experience. His strong interpersonal skills really helped in keeping everyone calm and engaged in an intense environment. Overall brilliant experience!"
