"The course was fantastic as was our trainer, who made it interesting and easy to follow. The range of topics we covered was extensive and we were even able to ask for help around our own PBI issues. Couldn't recommend the course enough! We chose the course as it offered a wide range of topics from visualizations to DAX, which was great for us as a team with varied PBI experience."

"Our trainer was brilliant. knows his stuff, spoke in a manner which meant we had time to understand and learn and for it to resonate. Spoke with us on our level so we could have more open conversation and he was able then to add further value to the experience. Course was comprehensive, yeah there is a lot to cover but it was covered in a logical manner, everything made sense and if not then he would explain in a way which helped make it clear."
James Ellis
Multiplex Engineering Limited
"Great content in the course. We were given the opportunity to perform exercises which personally I think is the best way to learn. Our trainer was always on hand to answer any questions and made the course interesting and knew when it was time to break! Really enjoyed it and learnt a lot, thanks."

Linda Holland

"A great tutor and his approachable manner meant the training session ran very well and was enjoyable. Having used PowerBI everyday I was concerned that I may not pick up much but I was pleasantly surprised to pick up a number of techniques that I will use going forward. Thanks."

"It was incredible, the trainer was first class."
Ross McCarthy
Mitsubishi Electric UK
"Going into an excel course, I was a little hesitant and worried it would be too much information at once. However, our trainer was great from the get go. Very engaging, lots of small breaks in-between, felt I got lots of unanswered questions resolved and quick tricks to feel confident using the excel platform."
Aleisha Buckley-Henry
Mitsubishi Electric UK
"The trainer was great with all questions asked and helped where she could. You don't find many people going away at night to find the answer."
Jamie Stewart

"I found the course extremely valuable and our trainer was fantastic! The content was catered perfectly to the group."
Cara Spry
Mitsubishi Electric UK
"The course content was great, perfect level for the group and our trainer was brilliant, very patient and kept us engaged throughout the day. We chose this course as we have a lot of data that we could analyse ourselves - we normally have to ask others for help which can take time but hopefully now we will be able to have a go. The content was great for beginners, and maybe in the future we can progress further!"
Laura Potter
Mitsubishi Electric UK
"An incredible teacher, who across the 3 days was very entertaining and engaging. His way of explaining and breaking down the course content made it easy to follow and understand. The content was everything we all needed to know and I was able to see how I could apply what I had learnt into my own projects. I came away excited to put my new knowledge into action."
Rachael Kerrigan
Adidas UK
"A really enthusiastic and engaging trainer. She took what can be a dry topic and kept our attention throughout - really enjoyed it!"
Lewis Paling

"Training was great. Our trainer is very knowledgeable and has a very good way of training people."
Amandine Catiau
Renault Trucks UK & Ireland
"Our trainer was engaging and he didn’t assume any knowledge, which was helpful because we were able to learn the correct way of doing things from the beginning. I liked how flexible with time the course was, to give us regular breaks to make sure we stayed alert and enough time to do exercises and ask questions. I also liked the set up of the course with the movies/music databases because it was easy to understand but still relatable to what I would need to do in my day-to-day role."
Alysha Aitken
