Firebrand Stories

Jon Bentley's Story

Hi, my name is Jon and I’m a freelance Consultant working predominantly in Security and Architecture for Public and Private Sector clients. My career started back in 1993 and most of my learning back then was self-study, I managed to break into Telecoms and Networking, passing exams and learning on the job installing Cisco, Nortel and Avaya systems I also experienced quality training and recognised the value expert trainers can bring.

I decided that 2017 was going to be my re-certification year as my career and technology have moved on and I wanted to gain current certifications and prove myself in new skills. The perfect partner for me was Firebrand, I needed a training partner able to give me the information I needed and coach me in a short and intense time frame in order to sit exams and gain certification.

As I pay for my education and have to not work when I take a certification course I need optimal support. Firebrand provides this with expert tutors and materials, labs and fellow students who are there for the same reason you are. The days are long but they are filled with challenging, engaging and exciting content, the time flies. The tutors coach you to optimal exam readiness by the end of the course and being on site with all your needs taken care of why would you go anywhere else. First class results and I do frequently recommend Firebrand as the training school of choice, I’m back next month myself….
