"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

"I found the day very informative and set at an appropriate level for me. Plenty of skills for me to use going forward, already shared some aspects with colleagues."
Paul Fowler
Hyde Central Services Ltd
"Training was very interactive and this helped keep me engaged throughout both days - the course was quite a long one to do over teams but it didn't feel like it."
Caitlin Irving
Sellafield Ltd
"I found the course very usefully, the trainer was engaging, friendly and kept the pace of the teaching going but including everyone through out. A pleasant and informative day."
Susan Buick
STMicroelectronics (R&D) Ltd
"The course contained sufficient content for a good introduction to VBA, was well organised (e.g. with sending out training manuals and organising pre-course checks) and came with high quality training materials. Our trainer was extremely knowledgeable, and created an encouraging environment for delegates to share ideas and ask questions. He also added in lots of "tips and tricks", which meant everyone learnt a lot, even if they had some degree of familiarity with VBA going in. Wise Owl had delivered other online trainings to Sellafield staff, so came recommended by colleagues."
Alex Cunningham
Sellafield Ltd
"Our trainer was absolutely brilliant and was very engaging and you could see how passionate he was about excel which then made me feel more passionate about excel! He made the course :)"
Katie Clements

"Our trainer was really helpful, very patient and managed to amend the course and requirements, as we went along."
Jennine Carpenter

"I found the course extremely valuable and our trainer was fantastic! The content was catered perfectly to the group."
Cara Spry

"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

"The whole experience was very positive. Clear pre-course communication and remote working assessment was great. An excellent trainer, interactive, positive and patient. Handled individual delegate issues quickly and without causing undue delay to others."
Mario Yeomans
Sellafield Ltd
"Really enjoyed the course, trainer was very helpful and approachable - I learned lots of shortcuts/refreshed my memory - really enjoyable (not often you say that about excel!!!)"
Alex Mason
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"Excellent course. Having used excel for many years, there were still some tips and best practice that had passed me by, having now learnt these they will save me time in the future. The tutor was great at explaining the technical terms and made things click (for example the text tip when you type a formula that shows you which part of the formula you are on). Thank you!"
Jody Gaisford
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"The course in my opinion was fantastic. I got a lot from it, the trainer was great and so were the biscuits! "
Stuart O’Neil
Mitsubishi Electric UK
"Very good trainer, course content was at a good pace."
Sarah Goodwin

"A great trainer and very patient when trying to get us all set up. Think it can be difficult to gauge an audience when you are doing a group session, however our trainer was very engaging, supportive and delivered the course at a good pace."
