This was an excellent hands-on course where you build and expand on databases, putting into practice new skills as they were learnt. This is the second Wise Owl course which I have attended and once again I was impressed by the friendliness of the staff, the standard of the tutors and the quality of the course materials. Highly recommended.

My second course with Wise Owl was equally as good as the first. Despite a more taxing topic, I feel the trainer and the environment greatly increased my confidence in tackling the in-service exercises. I would always recommend Wise Owl.

It is easy to book on to the course and the overall administration is excellent. The manuals are written in an informative, yet light hearted manner. The content of the course is exactly at the right level (I want to do the advanced now.) The trainer was fantastic, enthusiastic, friendly and very smiley - it's amazing what all those espressos will do to you!!

A really good (Advanced Excel) course. I thought it was good to gain ideas on what the group needed to focus on more specifically so all of the course was relevant.

The course I attended (Publisher) was very interesting and informative. I thought the trainer was very relaxed and the class size of 6 was the ideal for both one to one training and brainstorming.

I absolutely loved the SSRS 2008 R2 course ! The trainer was great – giving one-to-one attention to all the delegates and taking it upon himself to find and provide answers to trickier questions –, the pace was just right for me and the content was comprehensive. All in all, a fantastic course ! Thank you very much for it !
Angeliki Antonarou

The course was excellent. The trainer gave me a exactly what I asked for and he's definitely provided me with skills/ ideas that I can put into practice straight away. Should make a massive difference to my day to day routines. If we ever need any more training on Excel/Word etc, I definitely recommend Wise Owl. Once again thanks very much.

Having searched on the internet for a course to fit my needs, I booked online with Wise Owl for two Access courses and received an excellent pre-course pack which included very useful maps and directions. The logical process of the course content together with a very helpful, informative trainer and a lovely lunch will ensure that I shall choose Wise Owl again in the future - excellent all round!
