"The trainer was excellent, responded really well to questions, was informative and knowledgeable."
Rebecca Gardner
Mitsubishi Electric UK
"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
Liverpool Health Partners
"Fantastic trainer and delivered the course to a very high standard, I learnt a lot from the course which will make my role much easier and quicker."
Marie Lea
Hyde Central Services Ltd
"Our trainer was engaging and he didn’t assume any knowledge, which was helpful because we were able to learn the correct way of doing things from the beginning. I liked how flexible with time the course was, to give us regular breaks to make sure we stayed alert and enough time to do exercises and ask questions. I also liked the set up of the course with the movies/music databases because it was easy to understand but still relatable to what I would need to do in my day-to-day role."
Alysha Aitken
Adidas UK
"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
"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
Hyde Central Services Ltd
"The trainer was highly engaging, very knowledgeable and the concepts were communicated concisely and clearly."
Hugo Dunkason
Clearwater International
"Loved every single part of it. The knowledge which was displayed by our trainer was worth every moment. If we decide to purchase other products you offer training on, would 100% recommend to our department and company wide. Best training session we have received to date. Nothing too much hassle either and always willing to get involved."
Nathan Rogers
Silverstone
"The trainer was amazing, content was spot on and I benefited much more than expected from the course. Very well presented, communication skills and flexibility with content was appreciated."
Samantha Bangs
Welcome Break
"Our trainer was extremely knowledgeable and very easy to work with. His enthusiasm for the subject and product was infectious."
Vince Baglole
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"I had a clear understanding of all the sections covered, as it was very well explained. An informative and well presented course."
Barbara Colquhoun
Syntor Fine Chemicals Ltd / Actylis
"Trainer was brill, always on hand to ask questions and kept the course interesting. The course was short, and there is so much to learn on Power BI, however the content we did concentrate on was relevant."
Avril Ball
Adidas UK
"I really enjoyed the training and thought our trainer was fantastic at taking us through the content at the right pace, whilst also dealing with topics that came up ad hoc. This will really help us on our Power BI journey! We've used Wise Owl a few times now and find the course content and trainers to be excellent. Thank you!"
Richard Warren
Southend-on-Sea City Council
"I have attended a few PBI courses and we had by far the best tutor I've come across, his knowledge and teaching methods were amazing! He brought context to the lessons using examples to explain difficult DAX concepts by comparing and contrasting DAX formulas, which I found easier to digest. Also, we were all working together as a group so no one was left behind. The course was chosen based on the listed content, but our trainer made a valid point that all (Wise Owl) course instructors are encouraged to influence the course contents and tailor these when needed, I think this approach works well!"
Lola Beyioku
London Ambulance Service NHS Trust
"Our trainer was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. He answered all of our questions effectively and was extremely patient with everyone. Also, the handouts were extensive and will be a great tool when using Power BI moving forward. Thank you! We chose the Introduction course, as most of our team had little/no prior knowledge of Power BI. I would recommend this course to anyone starting out and will hopefully be able to complete more extensive training in the future."
Esther Finch
City of Lincoln Council
"Really enjoyed both days and the trainer did an excellent job. "
James Lavelle
Ignite Systems
"The trainer was engaging and tied the training to examples relevant to our industry where possible. I've used SQL before but I still learned a lot. Great course!"
Robert Ireland
Cobalt Housing Limited
"Thoroughly enjoyed this course and I found it all useful. I went into the course already thinking I knew a lot about VBA having self trained myself a couple of years back - however, I learnt so many efficiencies and new methods that I look forward to trying out my learning in new tasks over the next weeks and months. A shout out also to our trainer who I thought was not only very knowledgeable but also a genuinely lovely person. He really wanted us to get the most out of the course and I loved how engaged he was with us a group at all times of the day (including lunch)."
Sean Rowley
Nationwide Building Society
"The course was really enjoyable. Good course and good trainer with extensive knowledge and he was able to answer any additional questions we had."
John Minto
Durham County Council
"Really enjoyed the course, it had a very good structure and our Trainer was top-class!"
