"I thoroughly enjoyed it! It was the first excel course I’ve ever been on that was pitched at completely the right level. The tutor was very knowledgeable and took time to answer any queries we had. She checked in with us on our existing knowledge and then built on it. The practice tasks and the materials you go away with will mean I have the ability to regain knowledge on any tasks I don’t immediately start using. The snacks were also appreciated!"
Hazel Kimmitt
AA Projects Ltd / Drees & Sommer UK Ltd
"Tutor was friendly and very knowledgeable. Kept us all engaged and answered any queries we had of our own (as a company) and advised alternatives for what wasn't possible."
Victoria Ratcliffe
Dean Group International
"My group's trainer was absolutely brilliant. He knew Power BI inside-out and could answer any questions we had straight away."
Samuel Chapman
The Phoenix Group
"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
"Good balance of material and application making the course easy to digest. Number of new elements not aware of as Power BI constantly developing, so good way of also keeping up to date. Very knowledgeable trainer!"
Kieth Denison
Oxley Developments
"Really slick course detailing useful SQL and shortcuts. Brilliant trainer; interested in everyone's progress and helped without embarrassing candidates. Proper nerdy environment, I loved it!! I would recommend Wise Owl to anyone who will listen. Chose the course to fill gaps in my knowledge as I've worked with SQL for over 20 years but never had any formal training."
Catherine Reilly
Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT
"The tutor I had was the most enthusiastic, humorous and intelligent teacher I could have ever asked for. He went above and beyond to make sure I understood the course content and as a result I never felt lost or unsure about anything complex. Will highly recommend to anyone else I come across who needs this."
Alex Morris
Cardinal Newman College
"Great course and customer service from Wise Owl throughout, from pre-course checks to the course itself. I had been given a new laptop from work and it was no trouble for the team at Wise Owl to promptly arrange a self check prior to my course. The course itself was very informative and trainer was patient and answered any questions we had. Thank you."
Emily Knight
Halton Borough Council
"Our trainer was amazing and I have a much better understanding of DAX. So many things I now know that I will use going forward (the Italian way). ;) Thanks, William."
William Walker
Southend-on-Sea City Council
"Really enjoyed the course. The trainer made the experience even more enjoyable with his humour and was very likeable."
Hannah Pavlou

"An excellent trainer who covered the content in an engaging fashion and ensured everyone was able to understand and use the concepts in the manual. The online format also worked very well, which allowed for easy and efficient learning."

Vanessa Todman

"Really enjoyed the course and delivery style, which was fun and engaging. Our trainer really made everyone feel comfortable and captivated interest with various examples. It has given me some new useful tools for both in and outside of work."
Simon Hayes
Hounslow Council
"Our trainer was an excellent provider. The course although quite fast paced, had excellent workbooks and manuals provided and the opportunity to ask questions meant that no one got left behind."
Julie Radcliffe

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

"Our trainer was absolutely amazing, engaging and understandable! His knowledge of Power BI was fantastic, and I truly learnt so much and would recommend to anyone looking to better their knowledge of Power BI. Course content was exceptional. This course was great and the trainer made it even better."
Jonathan Bibby

"Very interesting course and learned a lot of new skills around DAX. Just need to put them into practice! Our trainer was also amazing - very knowledgeable - there wasn't a question he couldn't answer with multiple different suggestions. "
Susan Spragg
