"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

"Totally brilliant course, the tutor was fabulous. Would certainly recommend :-)"
Wendy Wood

"Enjoyed the course and learned a lot about Power BI, which I will be putting to use. I have been on Wise Owl courses before and always found them to be good."
Susan Spragg
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"This was one of the best courses I have ever attended! The trainer was engaging and really enthusiastic, always happy to answer questions and discuss the content further where needed. Being able to work through the content ourselves as we were being taught really helped to consolidate my knowledge. The venue was great and very accessible and the food was amazing!"
Charlie Staniforth
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"Trainer and the training was excellent. We really enjoyed the content, presentation and delivery of the training. Trainer was very practical, friendly and highly helpful which is very different from other training courses I have attended."
Siva Chandrasekaran
Cheshire East Council
"I found the course really useful and easy to follow. It was ideal for someone who knew very little about SQL previously."
Andrew Moss
Cheshire East Council
"Really enjoyed the course. I did know a lot of the content but by doing it a different way. This course showed me ways of doing things differently, some being much quicker. The trainer was very supporting and approachable, which made learning the new ways so much easier."
Kristine Ogden
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"Excellent trainer and pace of days. He made you feel relaxed and explained the course content in a easy to understand manner."
Becky Hayes
APSE Manchester
"Easy to follow, taught at a good speed with great examples that we now have saved to refer back to. I liked that we weren't just watching the training and were able to follow along with every action. The course manuals are also super helpful as following along yourself is more important than having to make lots of notes!"
Alice Ryan
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"Very comprehensive training course without being so much that it became overwhelming. Very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful trainer who communicated and explained the content effectively. I also think the course manual and exercises provided are excellent and I am sure will be really useful resources post-training."
David Caldwell
Cheshire East Council
"Booking and course information were all communicated well. The venue and pace was good. There was a lot of content to cover (re-caps were most welcomed). The trainer showed patience throughout and was able to answer all questions."
Vicky Kearney
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"The trainer was very knowledgeable and able to answer all questions. The energy was kept high and friendly. I have attended a previous Wise Owl SSIS course and have referred back to the notes many times. Great content!"
Gary Stroud
Southend-on-Sea City Council
"The trainer was amazing, he really knew his stuff, was interesting in the way he presented things (even when the topic could have easily been boring) and went above and beyond."
Joe Sanders-Wilde
Hounslow Council
"The trainer was excellent, very patient and accommodating."
Katie Sykes
Barnsley MBC
"After the course I have a much better understanding of Power BI in general and functionality of DAX."
Olga Sergushova
Southend-on-Sea City Council
"The trainer kept me interested the whole time and had her way of explaining things I wasn't quite sure of. Excellent teacher. I have always struggled with formulas so I wanted to get some more experience."
Sara Rowland
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"A great trainer who explained everything very well."
Stuart Morley
Reigate and Banstead Borough Council
"Very good training. Well paced, thorough and interactive. Supporting materials were very good and the trainer was very approachable, very helpful and had a really good manner."
Neil Harrison
Halton Borough Council
"Well structured and well delivered course. Venue was great. Enjoyed the course content and the training."
Safina Arshad
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"To be honest, I received the manual(s) and my first thought was 3 days of training with this amount of content and all online - what a nightmare! I'm a software systems trainer myself and know first hand how tech can fail or lag and it's like trying to herd cats keeping your audience engaged and ensuring everyone is on track. We had a first class trainer, extremely knowledgeable and relatable. He kept the training on track and managed to keep everyone engaged. The frequent breaks definitely helped to maintain concentration and the interactive examples helped to bring the theory to life. The fact that he could also see all of our screens added an extra level of cohesion, something that I have (enviably) never seen before. I would have no hesitation in recommending Wise Owl for any future training needs. "
