Benefits

The unique accelerated learning model created and used by Firebrand Training allows you to learn faster and retain information longer. It's the most efficient and effective way to learn, because it blends mixed visual, auditory and kinesthetic-tactual delivery systems to:

  • Customise the educational process to your individual learning style
  • Enhance retention through accelerated learning techniques that focus on long-term memory
  • Deliver the highest exam passing percentages in a fraction of the time

Other accelerated training providers rely heavily on lecture and independent self-testing and study.

Effective technical instruction must be highly varied and interactive to keep attention levels high, promote camaraderie and teamwork between the students and instructor, and solidify knowledge through hands-on learning.

Firebrand Training provides instruction to meet every learning need:

  • Intensive group instruction
  • One-on-one instruction attention
  • Hands-on labs
  • Lab partner and group exercises
