A comprehensive two day training course is available. The course covers hands-on usage of the FB2700 series including the various optional features that are available on the FB6000 series.
The course is aimed at anyone who administers and deploys FireBricks, whether an SME IT department or a broadband ISP.
In order to be become an accredited dealer for FB2500, FB2700 and FB6000, your company must send at least one person on the course. Accredited dealers are expected to provide first line support to their customers, and so should ensure a sufficient number of support staff have been on the training course.
The course assumes a good understanding of IP - if you are unsure of any aspect of IP then we also run a one day IP4&6 introduction course.
The courses are hosted by Andrews & Arnold Ltd at their Bracknell offices. The course is a two day event and usually starts at 9:30 and finishes between 15:00 and 16:00 depending on questions, etc. Lunch is included.
Visit the course booking pages for more details.
The cost is normally £750 (+VAT), including buffet lunch. There is a £250 discount for existing accredited FireBrick 105 dealers.
The accreditation process includes the training course. On completion of the process a newly accreditted dealer can request a credit on their account for the dealer margin on products purchased at full retail price in the previous 3 months. In the case of FB6000, the dealer prices only apply to units purchased for resale. The credit can be used towards future purchases.
The course is held in the Andrews & Arnold offices at Enterprise Court, Downmill Road, BRACKNELL, RG12 1QS (Map)
