Questions

Your Questions, Answered

Something else on your mind? Call 0845 470 1000 or email enquiries@flane.co.uk.

What does guaranteed to run mean?

A guaranteed date is confirmed to go ahead as scheduled, so you can book travel, cover and exams with confidence. Some dates become guaranteed as soon as one more person books, and the schedule shows which. The guarantee does not cover circumstances outside our control, such as illness or accidents.

What is the difference between live online and FLEX?

Live online courses are taught in real time by a certified instructor in a virtual classroom, with the same content and labs as the classroom. FLEX courses run in a training centre and online at the same time, so some delegates can be in the room while colleagues join remotely.

Can I pay with Cisco Learning Credits or training vouchers?

Yes. Cisco Learning Credits can be redeemed for public and private courses, e-learning, Cisco U. subscriptions, Cisco Live attendance and exams. Each credit is worth US$100 and lasts 12 months. We also help with Palo Alto Networks training credits and other vendor vouchers, and if yours have expired we may be able to help get them renewed.

Are your courses official vendor courses?

Fast Lane is an authorised training partner of AWS, Cisco, Google Cloud, Microsoft, NetApp, Palo Alto Networks, Red Hat, VMware by Broadcom and many more, so you learn from official content with vendor-certified instructors. We also run our own Master Classes and Hack Academy programmes.

Can you train my whole team privately?

Yes. We run private courses at your office, in a training centre or online, and can tailor the content with exam preparation workshops, assessments and follow-up coaching. Start with a free call with one of our subject matter experts.

What is Fast Pass?

Fast Pass is a prepaid, 12-month training programme. You choose an investment level, unlock tiered discounts and spend the fund across teams, vendors and formats, including exam vouchers, with no need to pick courses up front.

Where are your UK training locations?

We train in London, including International House at St Katharine Docks and Kings Cross, and in Birmingham, Cirencester, Edinburgh, Exeter, Glasgow, Leeds, Manchester, Milton Keynes, Reading and Stockport, or live online from anywhere. Our UK office is in Marlow, Buckinghamshire.

Do you offer AI training for non-technical teams?

Yes. Alongside technical courses for developers and engineers, we run Microsoft 365 Copilot courses for everyday users and AI master classes for managers and leaders, plus AI roadmap services for organisations planning their next step.
