"Amazing courses! Great trainer, pace and content. I literally couldn't have asked for better introductions to SQL and Power BI. Plus I have some many great resources to refer back to in the future :) Thank you!"

"Really enjoyed it."
Gary Woodcock

"A great teacher who made all the content simple and easy to follow. There was a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, the venue was really nice and the restaurant lunches were an added bonus! I learnt a lot and actually really enjoyed it at the same time. Would definitely recommend to others. The training came recommended by some colleagues who had been on it previously."

"I am absolutely thrilled to share my experience following the recent advanced Excel training session conducted for our team. From start to finish our trainer's expertise and teaching style exceeded all our expectations. His deep knowledge of Excel is truly impressive as is his ability to convey complex concepts in an understandable and engaging manner, which made the training not only informative but also enjoyable. He demonstrated a remarkable talent for breaking down intricate functions and formulas, ensuring that everyone, regardless of their starting skill level, could grasp the material confidently. The practical examples and hands-on exercises provided were incredibly helpful, allowing us to immediately apply what we learned to real-world scenarios. This training has undoubtedly equipped us with valuable skills and new insights that will significantly enhance our productivity and efficiency. Thank you for this amazing training session! It has truly been valuable!"

"Our trainer explained things so clearly and was so patient when I got a bit behind. An excellent trainer."
Allison Orchard
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"An amazing course, really provided clarity with the content and I am really looking forward to putting it into practice. Course tutor was really lovely, patient and knowledgeable. Starting to look at further courses with your company for power automate and DAX :) I knew what Power BI could do but had no idea where to start! Now I have attended this course I am confident I could put practices into place that will make my life easier and put capacity back into my diary."
Toni-Marie Norman
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"I found the content really useful. Each topic was covered thoroughly and the pace was perfect to allow me to feel fully confident before moving on"
Sophie Smith

"The course was interactive and fun, not boring. The instructor was great, explained things really well and had a lot of patience when going over things a couple of times."
Sarah Thrower

"Good pace, very informative and useful. Good communication before/during & step-by-step resources. Thank you."
Stephanie Hughes

"Instructor was very informed and super helpful."
Katherine Mercer

"An amazing trainer who kept the course interesting and engaging. I feel in a really good place after the course to begin working with Power BI more regularly and have a much better understanding of DAX, which I knew hardly anything about prior."
Laura Loades

"Really liked our trainer who was a great explainer - keep it up!"
Benedict Summers

"I found the course very useful. The activities will be useful for future reference when implementing some of the content. The trainer was very patient and made the course easy to follow and enjoyable."
Sarah Clarke
Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT
"Very enjoyable course, communication and procedure from start to finish was great as well. I had everything I needed well in advance, which is a huge plus; this meant no faffing around on the day-of and we were straight in there."
Bradley Swift
Torus62 Ltd
"Our trainer was professional, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The course was way better than I thought. The course covers from the most basic to advanced knowledge and I was provided with knowledge that I can use on a daily basis at work, which I think is totally worth it."
Kim Pham
Nationwide Building Society
"The course was very well taught & it was the clear that the trainer was very knowledgeable and had lots of experience. Teaching online was great as the instructor could clearly see what we were doing on the Remote Desktop. Plenty of breaks which was good as too much information too quickly would normally cause a headache! Chose fast track SQL to learn as much as possible in a short space of time. Glad to have learnt parts from both intro to SQL and advanced SQL course, definitely made the most of our time."
Evie Topp
Clayton Glass Ltd
"The course was well presented and understandable. I learnt some new things and came away feeling more confident in the SQL skills I already had. I've no doubt the manual will prove very useful in the future."
Jo Lockett
Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS FT
