Very friendly experienced and knowledgeable teacher. Very relevant teaching in terms of the actual questions that come up in the exam. Nice and tide hotel room. Amazing breakfast.

F-2-f Session was really helpful.

Would have been so hard to pass my exam without Firebrand. They brought my months of learning together and gave me the confidence I needed to walk in there and smash it.

Great trainer, content, classmates, and location.

Great accommodation and study facilities. The Firebrand team at De Ruwenberg were polite and helpful (as were all the hotel staff). The instructor was also excellent and obviously knew his subject (as well as many others).

Excellent instructor for CCSP training!
I think the best I ever had.

My instructor/tutor was really good, they have got a nice facility as well. The staff was hery helpful.

The classes were very good and definitely made a positive difference.

Excellent training materials and trainer. Was the best Certified Data Protection Officer Training I could find and was not disappointed. Highly recommend their courses and their trainers.

A big slot of learning compressed into 3 days sounded daunting. But with extensive materials delivered in advance, on line copies and importantly a great tutor with energy and pace; we were engaged and learning despite the long days.

I was absolutly not pleased with the instruction or instructor. I felt unprepared for the exam. I have attended other Firebrand training before with other instructor, and was very pleased. But not so this time.

Great content and very good teacher

Duaglas was an awesome trainer and had great content.

Well thought out session. Instructors were knowledegable and the surroundings supported an intensive week. I achieved my objectives so I would have no hesitation recommending Firebrand for training requirements.

Firebrand provides very thorough training and an atmosphere that's easy to concentrate. I would definitely recommed them.

I had a training in a luxury hotel in a peaceful environment. The trainer is very skillful and knows how to keep the trainees involved.

I attended the 5-day Lean Six Sigma Green Belt course at Firebrand Training in the Netherlands twice, taking advantage of the school's offer to retake the course in case of exam failure. Regrettably, neither session met my expectations.

The course material was presented ineffectively and lacked coherence. Both instructors, including Peter Cox who led the course on my second attendance, seemed unprepared. Peter appeared to have experience with Lean Six Sigma methodologies, but his teaching skills were subpar. Interaction with students was minimal, and he failed to address or adequately answer about 80% of the questions posed.

Time management during the course was also poor; the first three days were spent on overly detailed explanations with unnecessary examples, while the last two days rushed through slides in an inappropriate hurry, leaving no time for questions on the most substantial topics.

It is particularly disappointing that despite clear negative feedback from students about the November session last year, no improvements were made before the May session this year. Alarmingly, none of the twelve participants passed the exam after last year's training, despite the school advertising a 75% pass rate after the first 5-day course.

I am profoundly disappointed with my experience at Firebrand Training. I hope my feedback will be considered for future improvements to the course, ensuring better outcomes for future participants.
