"Excellent trainer, willing to go through everything, and to stay late to go into more depth with our queries. Truly went above and beyond."

"The course went very well and has given me a good insight into the SQL scripts and data extraction. The course structure was very good and covered a lot of the processes that I was unsure about. The trainer was great and made sure we were all progressing through the training sessions together, and was more than happy to explain any questions we had, or processes we did not understand. I have now been able to put into practice what I have learned from the course. "

Jaik Joseph

"The subject (MS SQL) could be, or even should be, a very dry and dull one. At all points the trainer managed to keep the course and the subject light and engaging. Given he had to put up with the students (myself included) often being on mute (for this online course) that must have taken considerable effort. A job very well done."

Simon Barker

University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay Foundation Trust

"Really enjoyed the course. I know this course isn't normally run online but I think it worked really well and was very engaging. The exercises were great as a way of practice and being able to keep all the documents to refer to in future is really helpful. A great trainer, lovely guy and very willing to help and answer our questions."

Chloe Dyche

Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT

"I really enjoyed this course and found it very useful. Our trainer was brilliant at explaining the topic clearly and answered all questions I had, along with giving a very friendly and comfortable environment to learn. This course changed my mindset on Power BI from just another program available, to potentially a key tool I will use daily going forward. Thank you for a great experience."

"Thoroughly enjoyed the course. Our trainer, was lovely. He kept a really good pace and was very approachable and friendly (hard to get this across over Teams sometimes as well!). The content was brilliant, and left with some great ideas for how what we learnt could be used in our job. Already had completed some training with Wise Owl in the past, which was equally brilliant."

Ellie Richardson

BUPA

"Really useful course taught at a good pace for all. It was recommended to me from a colleague and I have recommended to others."

"Great delivery of course, very knowledgeable and very helpful. This is the second course I have been on in the last 3 months, both have helped me enormously. Thank you!"

Deanne Yates

Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust

"Loved the remote training method, it's much quicker and more effective when the trainer can see our screens in one go without him having to wander around the real room looking over our shoulders, very slick."

Adam Taylor

The Office of the Director of Public Health

"Trainer was very approachable and willing to break the 'syllabus' flow to answer questions and still maintained completing the course work in the time allotted, without having to rush any portion. The workbook and exercises are laid out well and I will be revisiting them as a refresh."

Ian Moore

Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust

"Found the course content really engaging and not overwhelming. Great location and good course content."

Sarah Fitzgerald

One Medical Group

"An excellent course delivered at just the right pace and taking account of the differing ability levels of all candidates. An exceptional trainer with a fantastic delivery style. I will be recommending to others to use Wise Owl. Chose Wise Owl as a result of previous positive experiences and would definitely chose you again for any future training requirements."

Paul Horwood

"Really enjoyed this course and took a lot from it. Thank you again."

Mariannina Pascale

Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust

"Course was great. Intuitive, well constructed and patiently and expertly delivered. All questions were answered and solutions were demonstrated even though they may not have been part of the structure. I'd happily choose and recommend this course to others and as part of my own professional development, would potentially be asking for further training from Wise Owl."

Andrew Smith

North Staffordshire Combined Healthcare NHS Trust

"Thanks for running with just one person on the course. I have been on a few Wise Owl courses before and enjoy the style/approach employed (course materials, writing style, atmosphere in the classroom etc.)"

Magnus Windsor

"Trainer was clear and courteous throughout, planning breaks at well timed periods. The course delivery was professional while remaining informal enough to be interesting and relaxed, moving everybody forwards at a steady pace without anybody being left behind."

David Birkhead

University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay Foundation Trust

"We had a great trainer, who explained things well and kept us all entertained. There was loads of content covered in the course, which was great. Overall, it was a great introductory overview of SQL and I enjoyed the two days!"

Alastair Pettit

Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust

"Our trainer was really knowledgeable and explained things well. There was the right number of breaks and the course length was good. I enjoyed the online training more than I thought I would, there were no technical issues either."

Maria White

The Office of the Director of Public Health

"The pace and content of the course was perfect and I am ready to apply what I have learnt within the course to my work environment. I feel that this is the best training company I have ever used."

Shaila Hunt

BUPA

"This course was really interesting. One of the plus sides for me was that I was the only one on the course so the trainer adapted the course to suit my needs, and he helped me with a problem that I have been having. I'm glad I did choose to do this course and think I will be signing up for the DAX course to complete my knowledge."

Jennie Stiles

ConvaTec

"It was absolutely brilliant. Our trainer was extremely engaging throughout the whole course even though no one else had their cameras on! The content of the course offers a range of SQL skills applicable to a variety of situations - I can't wait to start using them! I can't stress how brilliantly the course was run; insightful and concise course notes in combination with excellent teaching, made for a very rewarding experience."

Dara Hughes

University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay Foundation Trust

"I would like to feedback that this was the best course I have undertaken in the last 16 years since I have started working. I have undertaken many courses from a lot of different providers and this was the best. The online experience was perfect, very smooth and I have never seen a 100% hand-on course!! I would recommend your training happily to anyone. The trainer was simply out of this world!!! In addition to his professionalism, knowledge and experience, he also has some very rare qualities as a trainer. The way he guided all of us, corrected or supported someone anonymously and the flow of the training. He explained everything and remained calm with dummies every time we were stuck, even the way he was doing his jokes was phenomenal!!! We already have a list of 20 actions and improvements to do, and this is the first time I am taking back to my work practice so many improvements from a training course. Thank you very much!"

Apostolis Fakis

"Great pace, great content, relaxed and informal. Fun training delivered in an interesting way. The trainer was fun, polite and very knowledgeable. I've had exposure to SQL but never had any training. Was really beneficial."

Paul Wharin

"Really excellent course - a brilliant (& entertaining) trainer. Good pace, good explanation. Will definitely be recommending when I get back to the office! Good introduction to SSIS - excellent course outline on website. Recommendation came from manager."

Elspeth Clark

"Trainer explained everything in a way we could understand and it was all at a good pace."

Kiran Purewal

Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT

"Our training group all had differing SSRS experience due to being self-taught, but the course was tailored to suit our specific needs which we really appreciated. The trainer asked for subjects we would like to focus on and this really helped us get the most out of the training. I enjoyed the course and I am looking forward to putting what I learnt into practice."

Charlotte Hall

Leeds Community Healthcare NHS Trust

Nicky Sabetpour

Rachel Wallace

Leeds Community Healthcare NHS Trust

"Great course, really enjoyed it. As a total beginner, the course was perfectly paced for me. The Trainer was very knowledgeable and happy to take the time to thoroughly go through and answer any questions that cropped up as we went through the course. The manual that accompanies the course is really good too and will be really useful when I embark on my first few reports. Thank you and I look forward to Power BI in a few weeks time :-)"

Ann Ekman

North Staffordshire Combined Healthcare NHS Trust

"We managed to complete about 4 days in 2 which is an achievement as our trainer made the course enjoyable and made you feel any question you asked was relevant. No doubt the course manual will be very useful!"

Trish Boateng

Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT

"Exceptional training. Thank you."

Mathew Jacob

Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust

"I thought the course was very good and our trainer was excellent in leading us. He went at the perfect pace and allowed us to contribute but also question anything and he didn’t move on until we all were happy. I think as a group we got lots out of it to take forward and we are all looking forward to putting what we learnt into practice. I think what would be great is the potential for an intermediate course once we have found our feet with what we learnt from the beginner course. Also, the actual course literature was great too and it's nice to have something comprehensive to refer back to, to support us in implementing what we took from the course and that’s in addition to being able to keep the actual work we did on the course. "

Steve Taylor

Thomas Sanderson

Leeds Community Healthcare NHS Trust

"The introduction course was laid out well and covered essential topics that's required for any SQL beginner. I haven't had any previous SQL experience, it was all self-taught, so being able to attend a course made a lot of sense to areas such as 'Joins and Dates', and showed a great insight into the architecture of SQL. The trainer was fantastic and explained topics clearly; Good job! I've been wanting to go on a SQL course because of my job, but I didn't get the opportunity until recently."

Elliot Knaggs

Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust

"Our trainer kept checking in on everyone at breaks and beginnings to make sure no one had gotten lost along the way. He was very open to questions and answered them clearly. It was good to get us thinking when asking us what we thought might happen if he ran a code, and then teaching us that a statement only affects the next statement. Colleagues recommended the training to me as they found it a very thorough exploration of SQL."

Simon Wickham

Advancing Quality Alliance AQuA

"A fantastic trainer. He went above and beyond tailoring the course to suit me and even included examples that are not usually on the course. I really enjoyed the set up for learning online - everything was easy to navigate and the trainer could both share his screen and watch my screen to ensure I was following along. This course was chosen after positive feedback from another colleague who completed the same course."

Chloe Lewis

James Berehowskyj

DHU Healthcare CIC

"For our team we have been searching for a good quality course to teach us PowerBI and I and my colleague left the course last week genuinely excited about what we can achieve using the available data and all of the functionality in PowerBI. The course was well structured and pitched at exactly the right level, in terms of existing knowledge. I was very happy with the course and felt that it fulfilled my/our needs perfectly. Other colleagues in the department had already been on the course and recommended it so were keen to get places when our colleague advised us he was setting up more sessions."

Michael Taylor

James Whitehouse

"This is the best SQL course I've ever been on. The pace of the course was perfect, the trainer was very patient and knowledgeable.
