"Really good course and the trainer was excellent! I like how time was managed, making sure we spent more time on the more important things and less time on things we may never use."
Lauren Szarvas
Bedfordshire Police
"I thought the training was a good introduction to SQL. The trainer was obviously very experienced and I found it useful that he explained why certain aspects were important, rather than just how. He was clear and easy to understand. "
Jessica Clark
West Berkshire Council
"I really enjoyed the course. It was simple to follow along and was at the right pace to understand everything being taught. Many thanks for a great two days!"
Lorna King
Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT
"Our trainer did a great job, who went above and beyond my expectations. I thought the course was really useful and my knowledge with regards SQL has increased 10 fold."
Mike Dolan

"The course was really helpful, informative and covered all areas needed (and listed in the course guide). The trainer was easy to approach and to ask for help and a very effective trainer. This recent experience, along with past experience of Wise Owl, confirms that you're a great company. Your website is the first I go to whenever looking at future training."

Stuart Wallace

Sema Guler

"Course content was great, clear and easy to follow. A great instructor who kept the course engaging and moved at a good pace, with some good jokes cracked too."
Aurelia Heyworth
Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG)
"A fantastic trainer and so knowledgeable; he was able to answer every query and even spent time looking further into more complex issues for us. He works at a very good pace, is friendly, welcoming and puts you at ease. The exercises work very well and the approach to these is excellent, with our trainer leaving us to work on them unless we ask for help."
Becky Young
Newark and Sherwood District Council
"The team of people I interacted with at Wise Owl, were very friendly and knowledgeable. The technology all worked fairly seamlessly. I could see a lot of effort was made to make everything go as smoothly as possible."

Gemma Tomlinson

Henry Browne

"Really good learning pace. Everyone kept up to speed, even when helping anyone who was stuck. Very insightful for the potential use of other support software alongside SQL."
Sam Ohren

"Great trainer. Pace of course was brilliant and learnt a lot. Really useful for expanding my skill set."
Kristin McIntosh
Newark and Sherwood District Council
"The course gave a great initial introduction to SQL and how to build useful queries that I can use to interrogate our datasets."
Imogen Soper
Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG)
"A great trainer and very patient. Great explanation of content which made it an enjoyable couple of days."
Adam Lucas
University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay Foundation Trust
"A brilliant trainer who was great and really approachable. "
Daniel Atthey
Gateshead Council
"The course was very well taught & it was the clear that the trainer was very knowledgeable and had lots of experience. Teaching online was great as the instructor could clearly see what we were doing on the Remote Desktop. Plenty of breaks which was good as too much information too quickly would normally cause a headache! Chose fast track SQL to learn as much as possible in a short space of time. Glad to have learnt parts from both intro to SQL and advanced SQL course, definitely made the most of our time."
