We provide training in all recent versions of Excel (including 2010) to all levels - anything from a one-day course showing how to create formulae in an Excel spreadsheet all the way through to creating advanced modules using the Excel VBA programming language.  Or consider creating your own onsite Excel training course.

Access has come a long way since the earliest version, and the latest version (2010) contains some nice new ideas. 

We target our Access training at 3 groups of people:

• If you have been asked to get data out of one of your company's databases, the one-day Access querying course is probably your best bet
• If you've been asked to develop a database from scratch, or modify an existing one, you're probably better off booking onto our 3-day developers' course (this is an alternative to the one-day course, not a follow-on)
• Finally, if you already know how to design databases, create queries and design forms and reports in Access, perhaps it's time to learn the VBA programming language?

For those who are outgrowing Access, we also run SQL Server training too; or why not ask us about our Access database systems?

VBA - Visual Basic for Applications - is the programming language behind most MS Office applications (although Microsoft are trying to move everyone away from VBA and onto Visual Studio Tools for Office, we think there's a lot of like in VBA yet). 

We run various training courses in VBA macros, from a basic two-day programming course for Excel or Access through to a two-day advanced VBA class.  So now there's no excuse for not learning more!  Or if you can't afford to invest the time yourself, why not commission us to write your VBA system for you, then we'll provide training show you we did it.

Over the years we've trained the likes of Alfred McAlpine, the BBC, British Energy, the Britsh Nuclear Group, DeltaRail and Ofsted on Microsoft Project.  Find out how our standard or tailored Project training can save you time, or ask about our Project consultancy service.

Wise Owl run two scheduled PowerPoint courses: a one-day introductory course and a one-day advanced course.  Alternatively, if you've got a team of people who already know the basics, you could consider onsite PowerPoint training to fill in the gaps.

At the owlery we still use Word every day - all of our courseware is written in MS Word.  We'd love the opportunity to train more on this sophisticated word processing application, but most people seem content to create basic documents and ignore the remaining features of Word.

If you're one of the exceptions - perhaps you're a PA, who needs to produce complicated reports, or set up templates in Word - give us a ring to discuss possibilities for Word training.  As always, we will never pester you - instead we will try our hardest to make your life easier.

If someone's asked you to produce a flow chart or an organisation diagram and you don't know where to start, book your Visio training now!
