Benefits of our Power BI training

Not sure if we deserve all the reviews you can see on this site? Here are some of the things we do (very) differently to earn them.

Hidden
Hidden

Friendly and professional training ... guaranteeed▼

How can any training company guarantee the quality of their courses? Here's how:

  • We limit our courses to no more than 6 people per class.
  • Unlike almost every other computer training company, we never subcontract or use freelancers - here's why this matters.

The best courseware in the industry? See for yourself▼

Our course manuals and exercises are by some way the best in the computer training industry. Fortunately you don't have to take our word for this - you can see for yourself:

Genuine integrity - and good manners▼

Our values are simple - we treat people as we would like to be treated ourselves. So:

  • We will - almost never - cancel courses. To see what "almost never" means see our no cancel guarantee.
  • There's nothing worse than being pestered, so we don't pester people. Ever.
  • It's dangerous to be sanctimionius, but we can see no possible benefit that tobacco and gambling companies bring to the world (and quite a lot of harm), so we choose not to work for them. Sorry.

You can see more on our corporate values here.

Innovative online training platform▼

We've put a lot of thought into making our online courses as useful and interactive as possbile:

  • Delegates use Remote Desktop to connect to our machines, so our trainers can see everyone's screens at all time.
  • We arrange (without charge) a half-hour pre-course check for each online delegate before courses, to ensure that they everyone will be able to join the course seamlessly when it begins.
  • As well as providing a PDF of the manual and exercises for each online course delegate we will (again without charge) also post this out to each person a few days before if required.

If you can't see the course you want listed above, don't despair! If you can muster 3 or 4 people together, it may well be worth organising an onsite course at your office (we'll provide and set up the computers), or else an online course tailored to your needs.

"I found the trainer really dynamic, patient and chatty, and he explained all the content very well and made it interesting to work through by providing a database on films that was invigorating to work through."

George Wherry

Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG)

"The course set up worked extremely well and the trainer was excellent - completely demystified DAX for me. I wanted a course with an actual human trainer so I would get accurate feedback about any incorrect steps."

Catherine Russell

Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency

"Really appreciated the course, our trainer was very helpful. I have already started doing things differently and built a new little ecosystem better than I'd previously done. Already recommended you guys to our team. "

Jessie Stroud

BBI Services Ltd

"Really helpful course, delivered in a way that ensured we were all starting from the same point and that we all left each stage at the same point. Very, very useful course with a great tutor."

Joseph Gaskin
