"A really good trainer, able to cope easily with the random questions we had and to ensure that everyone was able to keep up, despite differing levels of knowledge."
Zoe Oakley
Hertfordshire Constabulary
"Wise Owl was recommended by our IT team and we are very happy with the quality of the content and delivery. We have recommended to another team and to other NHS organisations."
Linda Phillips
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"A knowledgeable and enthusiastic trainer, who read the group well. He picked up on the lightbulb moments (for us) and helped to talk through potential solutions we could apply. Would highly recommend Wise Owl for future training."
Jude Brennan-Ward
Cambridgeshire Constabulary
"I really enjoyed the course and found it very helpful with the course handbook making it easy to apply what we have learnt. Our trainer was a lovely person and excellent trainer, very happy with his delivery of the course and his patience with us! Recommendation came from a colleague."
Jen Lloyd
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"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
"Knowledgeable trainer and useful information included in the sessions. "
Hannah Presswell
Bedfordshire Police
"Really helpful, great trainer who was more than happy to answer any questions and show practical examples/solutions in a way that was understandable."
Andeep Chohan
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"Our trainer was extremely knowledgeable and very easy to work with. His enthusiasm for the subject and product was infectious."
Vince Baglole
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"Really great course and really appreciate this being changed last minute to provide me with the content and experience needed for SSRS reporting."
Lauren Szarvas
Bedfordshire Police
"Superb course. Ideal pace and content. Exactly what we needed. Great delivery from our trainer, really clear and interesting. Thank you."
Rob Evans
North West Air Ambulance
"Another super course from the Wise Owl team. The pace and content were good and there wasn't any dead time. As an intro course I now have enough information to create meaningful reports and the manual is an excellent desk aid. I've used it several times this week! The pre course test was really worthwhile because my organisation's security is very tight. Having a work around to fall back on was worth sorting before the date. Purely because I've used Wise Owl for SQL training and rate the trainers. The team really do know their stuff and train from a position of knowledge."
Clare Hill
Hertfordshire Constabulary
"Great trainer, really knowledgeable helpful and a lovely venue in London. Being able to attend despite being the only one on the course was great too! I think the videos that you provide online are brilliant and help to increase awareness of this training. "
Lauren Szarvas
Bedfordshire Police
"An excellent trainer and it was definitely the best online course I have ever attended. Recommendation from previous attendees."
Gill Lee
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service
"Great course. The trainer was really knowledgeable and happy to answer all questions. Online course format worked well and the way the trainer viewed our screens meant he was able to give us hints/advice if we'd made any typos/errors, without holding the other delegates up."
Lyndsey Bell
Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Service
"A great instructor, who made sure everyone was at the same point and taught through a fully interactive three days – which best fits my learning style. Thank you for the well-delivered course on PBI and intro to DAX."
James Roberts
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"Another excellent course delivered by Wise Owl. Thank you. Wise Owl content is always delivered in a manner that enthuses and motivates; making often complicated subjects much easier to decipher and digest. I will be using Wise Owl again."
Christopher Evans
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"Really interesting. Trainer was very helpful."
Ellie White
Cambridgeshire Constabulary
"Our trainer was very engaging and supportive throughout the session. She had no issue with me asking questions or asking to have things repeated - it was encouraged! The booklets were useful for further reference after the course which allowed me to use my knowledge gained in the work place. I am looking forward to completing my Advanced course at a later date!"
Megan Good
Kent Police
"Another fab course provided by Wise Owl. The trainer was lovely, very helpful and super knowledgeable. Course content was great and covered lots of topics. Really nice venue, and great lunch choices!"
Lyndsey Bell
Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Service
"The trainer was informative and happy to deviate into case studies to suit our environment, if needed. Enjoyed the course."
