"Good course, clear understandable trainer, great lunch."

David Tayleur

Central and North West London (CNWL) NHS 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

"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. It's brilliant to leave it with a collection of material I can refer to and practically use going forward. Thank you so much again. This course was researched and recommended by a colleague in my team. I'm glad he picked this, as it was very, very good."

Michael Kellagher

Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust

"Brilliant, well paced and pitched at the correct level for beginners as a true 'introduction.' Work related course, other colleagues previously attended and recommended."

Jess Flint

Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT

"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

Coloplast Ltd

"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

"Very knowledgeable trainer - able to answer all of our questions and issues that came up."

Lindsay Haynes

Kevin Whipps

Graham Sellors

Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT

"(Intro Power BI course) Excellent pace for 2 days. Plenty of interaction and humour. Great lunch breaks. (DAX course) Excellent course. Very well delivered on a "tricky" topic which could have sent me slightly mad. Great pace of delivery. This is the first time I felt I could do the same course again! (Advanced Power BI course) Excellent delivery of a new course. Quick measures were very useful after the DAX course (a good compliment)."

John Pelan

Coloplast Ltd

"Just to say thank you to our trainer; his breadth of knowledge in SSRS, VBA and SQL helped me better understand it. Not the easiest product to use, but I now have learned some valuable techniques and tips around some of the bugs I have been encountering. "

Michael Taylor

Leeds Community Healthcare NHS Trust

"Very useful and practical. Enjoyable and fun!"

Sade Tolani

NHS Herts Valleys CCG

"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

"Probably the most engaging course I've done."

Jo Wright

Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT

Paul Horwood

BUPA

"Really useful and informative course. Although I had some knowledge of PBI the additional detail was really helpful."

Ian Connolly

Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust

"Very well thought out - I like how the course has been structured to build on each subsequent topic. Also I should say how useful your online videos are - they were essential for me working alone - they reminded me what a good company Wise Owl is."

Mark Davies

NIHR Academy

"Loved the course. Very well structured, taught me new things and reinforced the SQL knowledge I already had. Trainer was amiable and made everyone feel welcome and also patient when people struggled to grasp certain points. Course material and additional handouts are excellent."

Tom Langhorne

NHS Pension Scheme

"I would just like to reiterate what an enjoyable course it was and I feel I am really able to reap the benefits of it."

Linda Waterworth

University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay 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

"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

Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT

"Brilliant course, thank you for an enjoyable two days."

Phil Memmott

Leeds Community Healthcare NHS Trust

"Manual and exercise book excellent tools for practice. User friendly website, clearly defined course content and scheduling."

Mark Ingle

Ortho Solutions UK Ltd

"Brilliant, great trainer. Very educational and entertaining."

Andy Cook

Central and North West London (CNWL) NHS Foundation Trust

"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

"Well prepared. Great hospitality. Training recommended by a consultant."

Richard Brooks

Ampetronic

"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

"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."

Sarah Kirkham-Brown

NHS South, Central and West CSU

"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

"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

"Explanations made perfect sense and the course flowed well."

Vikki Lewis

NHS South, Central and West CSU

"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

Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust

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

Sarah Fitzgerald

One Medical Group

"Very good course, well-enjoyed, well lectured."

Jianjun Wang

NHS South, Central and West CSU

"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!"

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

"The whole course has been really useful, friendly and just a great course. Given me lots of ideas to take away. Trainer is supportive and helpful. Great 2 days! Highly recommended by a number of colleagues."

Becky Leason

Department of Health

"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."
