96,08% have said Firebrand exceeded their expectations:

"Firebrand training are a fantastic company for training. The lecturers are great, the company there is great, and with so many other students around the amount of knowledge is really high. My course only had 3 people on it, Meaning I had alot of one to one time with the lecturer. This is far better than any other course I've been on. Sure the hours are long and tiring. But unlike other courses, Where the lecturer leaves at 5, These guys are around all evening, Eating with us everytime allowing great interaction. I view the instructor as more of a colleague than a lecturer. Fantastic course, Ran by fantastic people!"

"The training was excellent and the instructor made what can at times be very dry material interesting. I have trained in some of the topics previously and struggled. However on this occasion I found the explanations concise, clear and comprehensive. Topics were brought together so that each discussion reinforced earlier comments and this really helped clarify what was taught."

"Firebrand have a great setup in Wyboston. It's a nice area where you can walk around the gardens and think over the days lessons and grab a couple of moments to take stock. The accommodation is great and the firebrand building is right next door. I attended the CCNP training, the instructor is clearly an expert in Cisco and really put the hours in and was happy to go through any queries and offer explanations. While you're there, the exams are scheduled for you during the week, however there is a lot of flexibility. Most of the guys I was with stuck with the schedule and passed all their exams. I realised I needed some more time to let the information sink in, I decided to sit one exam, which I passed, and prepare a little more in my own time. I was able to do this as Firebrand offer you the option to pick and choose when/which exam you want to sit, if you don't take them when you're there, then you can take the vouchers and use them when/where you like. I'm seriously considering using them again, I've learnt so much, far more than if I had stuck with self cert and I now have good revision structure to stick to. My brain hurts, but it was worth it! "

"This is my third course at Firebrand. The training received here is top notch. The instructors are experts in their field of teaching. The 24 hour accesibility of the labs is really helpful. The labs are made up of actual equipment, not simulated equipment, which gives you the actual hands on experience needed to pass the lab portions of the tests. Intense training, but well worth it. On the down side. The food could use some variety. Potatos for every lunch and dinner meal is a little monotonous. Overall though, the food was good."

Why is Cisco at Firebrand different?

Firebrand’s accelerated CCNA course offers you access to more equipment than most of our competitors

There are many Cisco training providers and the equipment used can vary greatly. Several use remote labs where you never see the actual equipment but do exercises based on a connection to a rack of equipment “somewhere”…

At Firebrand we see things differently. We believe that in your first exposure to Cisco you should see, feel, and touch the kit. You need to know about interfaces and ports, but not by seeing a PowerPoint slide or a diagram, rather by actually connecting cables to the router or switch.

You’ll work in pairs and share a “pod” of equipment located in a rack. You have your own 2811 router and 2960 switch, access to additional equipment such as a Frame-Relay switch, along with additional routers and switches should you wish to tinker.

The equipment we supply, alongside 24 hour lab access, gives you the tools to prepare you both for the CCNA exams, more importantly, the real world.
