"Best way to fully focus for complex certifications while benefiting from the real-life experience of the instructor"
Anonymous. (4/9/2023 (Monday) to 8/9/2023 (Friday))

"The instructor has a wealth of knowledge in OT, controls and automation. This especially true within the Oil and Gas industry. The training was significantly enhanced through this real-world experience and his ability interact with the class to cover off syllabus topics."

"Ive used Firebrand several times now over multiple job roles. I found this course GICSP was the most interesting course so far. This was hugely down to the instructor's interaction with the team and his shared real life scenarios. He is very knowledgeable indeed and presents the course in such a manner he made the subject feel much easier than it was. Its obvious that he is both passionate and dedicated in what he does. I look forward to attending onsite next year with him as the tutor"
