Sample customer feedback

"Excellent manuals and trainer"

Peter Cranmer (GM Business Support Ltd)

"Very useful course content and manuals as usual. Can't wait to get started in the 'real world.' Used Wise Owl before, so already converts."

Alison Phiri (NHS Leeds CCG)

"Great trainer - very clear, easy to understand and set a perfect pace for everyone on the course. Great level of detail and fantastic content - all very useful. The booklet and exercises are super helpful both in the training and after. Lovely venue & perfect lunch choices. Honestly best course I've been on yet!"

Katie Stevenson (Barbican Insurance Group)

"We had an excellent instructor; patient, helpful and approachable and the course is structured very well. I'd previously attended the SQL course and found it useful so thought I'd use Wise Owl again."

James Gallucci (HM Inspectorate of Constabulary (HMICFRS))

"Manuals are always brilliant."

Ersin Cimener (Tesco)

Delegates should be comfortable with using Excel (no advanced knowledge is needed). No experience of progamming is needed, although delegates should enjoy the logical challenge of learning new computer systems.
