"Great course, provided by a great trainer, who was really knowledgeable and was also happy to answer the many questions that I had."
Charlie Bruce
LGT Wealth Management UK LLP
"Fantastic course, well delivered and very engaging!"
Suzie Beith
The Phoenix Group
"I enjoyed the interactive nature of the course, as personally, I find I learn best by actually carrying out the exercises, rather than just being shown. I also liked the repetition of the tasks, as this helped me learn the principles."
Tom Tuck
Macfarlanes LLP
"Really loved the course and we learnt so much!! Very easy to follow."
Sarah Underwood
CFC Underwriting
"Really enjoyed the course, which covered a lot of ground and the trainer certainly knew his stuff. Many thanks."
Kevin McWhirter
The Phoenix Group
"I found the whole experience with Wise Owl to be excellent, from the booking, through the pre-course technical testing and manuals, to the course itself. It was a pleasure to work with you. I like the fact that our trainer was able to watch over us in our individual environments and gently guide us through when we got stuck (without calling out to the other attendees). When we raised queries that couldn't be answered there and then, he took them away and came back with answers later. Originally chose Wise Owl because we'd been let down by another provider. I hadn't heard of Wise Owl before then but your website gave me a good introduction. I found the way you interacted with me during the booking and prep phases to be very professional. The course itself was excellent and the training manual and exercises will be useful to refer to in future. The style of the training was really good too - only a small number of attendees meant that no one got left behind and we were encouraged to ask questions. I will recommend Wise Owl to others. Thanks"

"A good introduction to Python. A very patient trainer who did a great job delivering and giving extra help when required. Many thanks."
Louise Moir
The Phoenix Group
"The course was great and I like the set up - where we are taught an example and we practice, with the teacher guiding us and correcting us. We had a wonderful instructor!"
Bianca Delgado
ICE Futures Europe
"A great instructor and the course content was perfect for the skills I was wanting to learn. Wise Owl came recommended by a few people, so definitely has a great reputation for quality courses and instructors."
Alexandra Thacker
FIS Global (WorldPay)
"This is my second training and as before, the trainer was knowledgeable and very clear with his explanations. He was able to tailor the course to match my experience and I am very satisfied overall. I wanted to improve my SSAS skills. Though the course was about a model we don't use at work right now, I am positive I will get the opportunity to put it to good use."
Folakemi Ayoade
Bank of England
"We have used Wise Owl in the past and the fast track course was just what we needed to get everyone up to speed regardless of experience. Being the only company on the course allowed us to steer the content and questions towards our particularly business which was really useful. Overall very pleased with the training and excellent course manual provided."
Mark Webb
Sesame Bankhall Group
"Our trainer was brilliant. Pacing was great. As a company we've used Wise Owl multiple times before. Every course they've run has been fantastic."
Mary Groutage
Sucden Financial Limited
"Great course content, booklet is really helpful and nicely printed. Trainer was really helpful and engaging. Thanks again."
Vickesh Patel
Clearwater International
"I really enjoyed the course. Thank you for all the additional information and the videos you have available. I almost chose the beginner course but after a great chat with one of your trainers, I think I correctly chose the advanced course. I've also had great feedback from other employees at my company who have also taken a course with Wise Owl. Great staff at every point through the journey."
Kyle Anabossi
Hoist Finance
"Great course, well worth the money and our trainer was great! Would definitely use Wise Owl again."
Stuart Allan
Lloyds Banking Group
"Our trainer was great! Kept the course entertaining while explaining everything as many times as needed!"
Chloe Brown
CFC Underwriting
"As a graduate, I found this course very useful. I thought the trainer was great, always willing to slow down or repeat something when I didn't fully understand. Thank you."
Harry Talks
Clearwater International
"It's sometimes easy to give top marks on a review; however, this is absolutely deserved. The trainer was excellent, friendly and knowledgeable. He ensured everyone was on track, kept note of queries and expanded things when he could. I thought the content, and flow, was really well thought out and appreciated the manual, etc. we get to keep (particularly as paper copies). I think the technology implementation for online was one of the best I have experienced too, with the trainer being able to see everything as it's going. Brilliant overall and I will be recommending you to others, and pushing for more courses."
David Earle
The Phoenix Group
"A great trainer, his knowledge was amazing and he was really keen to help and make it relevant to us which was great! We were undecided between this and the three day intensive course but really happy we started on this course and can go away and do our own work on macros before moving on to the advance course!"
Grace Aspin-Radford
CFC Underwriting
"Our trainer modified the content slightly to cover VBA in pivot tables which was very applicable for us. He also provided great assistance straight after the course in helping me apply the techniques learnt to actual work problems. He exceeded my expectations and I am very grateful to him."
