"The level of knowledge and insight provided by the instructor was fantastic. I really enjoyed the way he taught away from the Powerpoint, and drew diagrams and explained things fully."

"I feel the instructor is a fantastic trainer using real world examples to help explain key terminology. even though there were many slides very little time was spent looking at them and it was more engaging by his own written examples and demonstrations. I hope I get the instructor as a trainer on my next Firebrand course."

"Having just completed a week of intense but enjoyable training, for the EC Councils Certified Ethical Hacker v9 at Firebrand Training Ltds Wyboston Lakes facilities and passed the exam on the final day.
I can thoroughly recommend the company, facilities, support staff and World Class Instructors at firebrand. I successfully studied and completed my ISC2 CCSP there previously and once again the overall package could not have been bettered anywhere.
I have recently experience training with another very well known supplier and frankly Firebrand is in a totally different league with every regard. If you want to obtain IT or Cyber certifications then I suggest you train with the best at Firebrand Wyboston Lakes.
I shall be recommending to my colleagues, that they don't even consider this type of training elsewhere. I cant recommend them highly enough. Thanks again Firebrand."
