"The course was very hard going but very good. The centre, all the staff and the food were all excellent. The only thing that I would advise is that you have a very good understanding of computers and IT before you come. This was a complete career change for me and I had very little computing knowledge when I started, unlike everyone else on the course, but I worked hard and manged to get my first IT qualification. So it can be done. Would definitley recommend Firebrand Training. "
