Brilliant course

I done a course a couple weeks ago for Fire door inspections and this course was very educational.
What made this rightly so difficult course digestible for myself was the Teacher/Assessor Joe who was engaged with the whole class and passionate about what he was teaching, and we was learning.
Further more he was just a all round lovely guy and made it enjoyable for me to be there. To say he is a Asset to Fire safety would be a understatement so I would like to extend my thanks to him and wish him the best.

I attended a substantial amount of training throughout my carrer so far and I must say that this particular one, Level 3 passive fire protection, has been one of the best. Very thorough, complex, well balanced info v interaction within the participants and the trainer, good quality content and at some stages even self explanatory. A real credit to Joe Bromfield who guided us throughout the 5 days training. Well knowledgeable and friendly. I would definitely recommend this training. Thank you.

Hi great training

Hi

We have just had a 2 day course on fire stopping and fire doors run by Joey.

I have been on lots of training courses but none as good as the one joey held.

He made a 2 day course fun, skilful and the information gained is invaluable and i even used it today on a job.

I've done lots of fire training courses in the past but never had one run so professionally that gives so much information and i learnt so much from this one.

Please pass on a massive thank you from me.

I recently completed the Fire Stopping Inspection E-Learning Course offered by IFI Group, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. As I've taken on larger projects involving installations in large aquariums, my need for extensive knowledge in fire stopping has significantly increased. This course was incredibly helpful in expanding my understanding of fire stopping products, especially those required for penetrations on walls, doors, and ceilings.

The course content was thorough and well-structured, providing me with the essential knowledge I needed for my projects. The practical insights and detailed explanations made it easy to apply what I learned to real-world scenarios.

I also want to extend my gratitude to Reece Jenner for his exceptional customer service. Throughout the entire process, Reece was quick to respond and immensely helpful in guiding me to choose the right course for my needs. His dedication and support made a significant difference, ensuring I got the most out of the course.

I am now looking forward to enrolling in the Level 3 classroom course in the near future to further enhance my skills and knowledge.

Thank you, IFI Group, for providing such a valuable learning experience.

Level 3 Inspection & Testing Of Fire Stopping Installations

I attended the Level 3 Inspection & Testing Of Fire Stopping Installations.

It was a brilliant course, with a brilliant assessor. Joe was really helpful and full of knowledge about the course he was teaching.

Overall the course was intense and required a lot of concentration, however this was more than achievable due to how the course was planned over the week. With sufficient breaks, a knowledgeable teacher who answered all questions and a well structured course.

The planning before the course was great as well. Reece was in constant contact for every aspect of the course. Whether there were any changes in room location or general preparation for the course.

I would recommend anyone who is willing, to attend any courses from IFI, as they have helped me improve my fire protection knowledge and confidence within my job.

I recently attended a Level 3 Award in the Inspection & Testing of Fire Door Installations

I recently attended a Level 3 Award in the Inspection & Testing of Fire Door Installations from 22/1/24 to the 26/1/24. I found the course to packed with all the information needed to pass the final exams. The venue was in the Double Tree Hotel in Lincoln in one of their well catered for meeting rooms where daily lunch and snacks were provided throughout the day.
I have to thank the trainer Joe Bromfield for his excellent knowledge of the subject and his witty approach to delivering the course.
Thanks Again Joe.

Great training courses and communication.

We are putting our engineers through some training courses with IFI and have found them very straightforward and easy to use. Feedback from the engineers is good. Jordan has been very responsive and great communication. We will be continuing to book more through them.

Level 3 Award in the Inspection and Testing of Fire Stopping Installations. IFI Group Ltd Lincoln LNI 2LR

Although the course content was intensive and somewhat disassociate to my general day to day remit that was more a consequence of the lack of anticipation and foresight of my employer and not a criticism of the course itself, instrumental for any person looking to advance within this specific industry field it would prove invaluable.
In regard of lecturer delivery, I can only offer the highest of praise for Joe Bromfield his knowledge both was and is exceptional, and his easy-going affable approach helped put all the candidates at ease. As I was personally struggling with some of the content involved he took time out to fully explain the particulars and necessary details in a wholly patient, sympathetic manner I really can’t praise him highly enough, he is a credit to the organisation involved.

exceptional and engaging.

Firestopping inspector course.

Both the e-learning and classroom courses are broken down into bite-size sections which is extremely easy to digest.

Joes delivery in the classroom was exceptional and engaging.

Booking the course was also an easy and stress free task. So much so we are currently booking other members of staff on to multiple courses.
