"All good from my point of view, very happy with the training provided again. Have used Wise Owl for a number of courses now, always engaging trainers with good content so was happy to use again."
John Ensor
Montanaro Asset Management Ltd
"I've done a few Wise Owl courses and I think I actually prefer online with the remote desktop aspect."
Katy Seldon
ICE Futures Europe
"Great course, well worth the money and our trainer was great! Would definitely use Wise Owl again."
Stuart Allan
Lloyds Banking Group
"Really enjoyed the course, it had so so many examples that are going to be really easy to refer back to. I enjoyed breaking things down to the understanding of why something works, thanks!"
Holly Fry
The Phoenix Group
"Really enjoyed the course, which covered a lot of ground and the trainer certainly knew his stuff. Many thanks."
Kevin McWhirter
The Phoenix Group
"Our trainer modified the content slightly to cover VBA in pivot tables which was very applicable for us. He also provided great assistance straight after the course in helping me apply the techniques learnt to actual work problems. He exceeded my expectations and I am very grateful to him."
Greg Stevens
ICE Futures Europe
"The course content was interesting and covered all the key areas I was interested in learning about when signing up for the course. The course moved at a good pace and was well balanced between instructor-lead content and practical examples. The trainer even followed up after the course with further information on some technical questions, allowing me to comfortably and easily start using Python and VS Code. Was a good balance between course length (3 days) and coverage (basic to intermediary topics). I also prefer the fact that it's live and instructor-lead, rather than being a purely audio visual experience (i.e. not a YouTube video). Wise Owl also has a good track record with our company and other delegates on other course and clearly have expertise in the areas their courses cover."
Michael Thurlow
ICE Futures Europe
"The course overall was great and I am happy I did it. The trainer was very friendly and taught everything thoroughly and with a lot of patience. The course materials were really helpful and thoroughly covered all aspects of SQL, especially for someone new to it! One thing which was particularly valuable was the step-by-step instructions included within."
Jasdeep Sandhu
CFC Underwriting
"The course was great and I like the set up - where we are taught an example and we practice, with the teacher guiding us and correcting us. We had a wonderful instructor!"
Bianca Delgado
ICE Futures Europe
"A great trainer, very enthusiastic and very clear in his instructions and led at a good pace. Course content was great for a newbie to Power BI like myself. "
Suzanne Cowan
The Phoenix Group
"Our trainer was brilliant! Kept the course at the right pace so everyone kept up and I thoroughly enjoyed the training course."
Graham Watters
The Phoenix Group
"I really enjoyed the course. Thank you for all the additional information and the videos you have available. I almost chose the beginner course but after a great chat with one of your trainers, I think I correctly chose the advanced course. I've also had great feedback from other employees at my company who have also taken a course with Wise Owl. Great staff at every point through the journey."
Kyle Anabossi
Hoist Finance
"A great instructor and the course content was perfect for the skills I was wanting to learn. Wise Owl came recommended by a few people, so definitely has a great reputation for quality courses and instructors."
Alexandra Thacker
FIS Global (WorldPay)
"Great course, really enjoyed it. It has so much potential to help out with day to day tasks at both work and home. Really useful to have the interactions and overviews of other Microsoft products such as Power BI, adaptive card designer and MS Graph. Whilst I can understand that the new designer has bugs, it was actually quite beneficial encountering these during the course as it allowed us to see how to problem solve them in the future."
Kerry Coyne
The Phoenix Group
"A great trainer - very friendly, engaging and extremely knowledgeable. The course was organised and efficient. The manual was very useful as we learnt a lot over the two days, so having all the information to hand and to take away was great. Would recommend the course."
Jess Dyer
CFC Underwriting
"I enjoyed the interactive nature of the course, as personally, I find I learn best by actually carrying out the exercises, rather than just being shown. I also liked the repetition of the tasks, as this helped me learn the principles."
Tom Tuck
Macfarlanes LLP
"Our trainer was great! He had the right level of enthusiasm and great knowledge of all aspects of Power BI and how it links to other more familiar tools. I was really worried about the remote aspect of the training, feeling like I wouldn't get as much out of it but I actually think I prefer it to being onsite! You have more of a direct focus with the trainer and they can see what you're doing so clearly and quickly. If we do more, I'm voting for remote!"
Alice Dovey
The Phoenix Group
"Really loved the course and we learnt so much!! Very easy to follow."
Sarah Underwood
CFC Underwriting
"Fantastic course, well delivered and very engaging!"
Suzie Beith
The Phoenix Group
"I was impressed by our trainer's thoroughness - any questions that he could not answer on the spot, he took away and answered the next day, having found workarounds to even the most obscure of questions we had for him! His pace of teaching and clarity was perfect, taking the stress out of learning new things."
