"The course was really helpful, informative and covered all areas needed (and listed in the course guide). The trainer was easy to approach and to ask for help and a very effective trainer. This recent experience, along with past experience of Wise Owl, confirms that you're a great company. Your website is the first I go to whenever looking at future training."
Rebecca Kirkby
East Coast Community Healthcare CIC
"Really enjoyed the course, it had a very good structure and our Trainer was top-class!"
Matt Hemming
Liquid Logic (System C)
"I really liked the trainer and he made everyone feel capable and welcome. The way the course ran was manageable and although there was a lot of content, the course never felt overwhelming."
James Hodgson
Sellafield Ltd
"Wise Owl exceeded my expectation on every aspect of the process and I have recommended Wise Owl to our internal Training Team. A friendly, approachable & knowledgeable trainer, made the two days easier to navigate. All in all a great two days."
Rich Yoxall
Manchester Metropolitan University
"I thoroughly enjoyed the Power BI course. The structure and content was great. I kept up with the pace and understood everything that was being taught. I really appreciate how both trainers made a lot of jokes and tried to get to know us, this showed me they truly cared about our learning rather than them just trying to rush through the course. I think this is possibly the best training course I have ever been on! Keep shining!"
Paula Gjelaj
PwC
"Really great course and really appreciate this being changed last minute to provide me with the content and experience needed for SSRS reporting."
Lauren Szarvas
Bedfordshire Police
"Another fab course provided by Wise Owl. The trainer was lovely, very helpful and super knowledgeable. Course content was great and covered lots of topics. Really nice venue, and great lunch choices!"
Lyndsey Bell
Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Service
"Really enjoyed it."
Gary Woodcock
Wurth Elektronik
"The training worked perfectly! I had experienced the Power BI training in person but to have an online option that works so well, I can only thank you."
Andy Derbyshire
APSE Manchester
"Trainer was really engaging, knew his stuff and was helpful in guiding us to utilising SSRS effectively. He seemed to really enjoy teaching us and we could tell. Well delivered course and great content, example database to use. The trainer slightly adapted his delivery based on what he believed we would need and he was right."
Nathan Vickery
TVS Supply Chain Solutions
"Our trainer was great helping lead us through the basics of Power BI and then pushing us further towards more advanced techniques, as we asked how we might use the software for our own problems. Highly recommended by our colleagues and I would have to agree with them."
Freddie Wright
Singleton Birch Ltd
"I found this course really useful and I like that the trainer is reactive to questions by diverting slightly off course to demonstrate an answer to the question. I also liked the fact that rather than just DAX the course showed how we could use the DAX Measures in the visuals. I am new to DAX and Power BI and wanted to get a better understanding of the basics before looking at what I can improve on going forwards."
Colin Watts
Southend-on-Sea City Council
"The training was informative and well paced. Plus the trainer was happy and willing to answer our questions and provide tips and tricks we maybe able to use."
Andrew Gardner
Ballyvesey Group
"I thought the online format worked really well. The course was well-paced and covered all the topics I needed to enable me to fill in the gaps in my Power BI knowledge (having used it a little to date). I feel entirely confident to re-create reports that I have already been working with and also to create new ones with improved design and complexity."
Matthew Tierney
United Endeavour Trust
"Good pace and the trainer was very helpful, allowed regular breaks and encouraged us to ask questions. He also stayed at the end and was willing to show extra features that we asked for."
Michael Lawrence
Sellafield Ltd
"Very knowledgeable and helpful trainer."
Petya Kalcheva
LifeArc
"The informal chats and lunch we had throughout the day helped make the course really engaging. Given it was a basic overview I feel I now have a really good grasp of Power BI to move forward with. Colleagues had done the course before and said how good it was."
Sophia Sharpley
Sage Publishing
"A brilliant trainer who was great and really approachable. "
Daniel Atthey
Gateshead Council
"Very happy with the course, our trainer was great and was happy to tailor the course to what we wanted to focus on and was great at answering everyone's questions."
James Baum
Frontline Ltd
"The course was really good and really well delivered, as always. The trainer made the whole experience very enjoyable. I was looking for something to replace VBA in the long term. I'm not sure Office Scripts is quite ready to do this yet but I think the groundwork has been laid and I look forward to future developments."
