"I had a great time. The instructor is very knowledgeable and his training is on point. Two exams in 2 days is a lot. But he makes it doable."
Juan van Gom, Ministry of Defense Netherlands. (19/1/2024 (Friday) to 21/1/2024 (Sunday))

"Excellent teaching structure, giving me confidence and understanding of the course."
Stacie Williams, JMW. (18/12/2023 (Monday) to 20/12/2023 (Wednesday))

"The experience was great, the facilities and quality of training meant everything was optimum for learning. I would recommend!"
IF, Fab Works. (18/12/2023 (Monday) to 20/12/2023 (Wednesday))

"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*"
JM, British Army. (4/10/2023 (Wednesday) to 6/10/2023 (Friday))

"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! "
Anonymous, Institute of Export and International Trade UK. (4/10/2023 (Wednesday) to 6/10/2023 (Friday))
