"A good introduction to Python. A very patient trainer who did a great job delivering and giving extra help when required. Many thanks."
Louise Moir
The Phoenix Group
"A great trainer and it didn't feel like he was just reading from a script. He explained each step and showed us multiple ways to achieve the desired outcome and which methods should be used in a particular situation. He also pointed out any common problems or things we should look out for that he has experienced in his career. Other staff have already taken the course and have had positive things to say about it."
Ben Ryland
Macquarie Energy Leasing
"The trainer was superb, he understood how I related to what I was learning and was able to put things into a context that suited me. He made me feel at ease and that no question was a stupid question. I am already recommending you guys to colleagues and want to book another course. Wise Owl was recommended by a colleague in my new team."
Liam Dutson
URIS Group/Towergate Insurance/Commercial
"Really helpful and knowledgeable trainer who made the course and content interesting and engaging. Extremely helpful."
Benjamin Nutter

"All good from my point of view, very happy with the training provided again. Have used Wise Owl for a number of courses now, always engaging trainers with good content so was happy to use again."
John Ensor
Montanaro Asset Management Ltd
"An excellent teacher and trainer. The course content was specifically tailored to suit our needs and he did a wonderful job teaching us it and further enlightening us on a number of topics. I can't recommend him highly enough."
Thomas Crozier
Home Office
"I really enjoyed the course. Thank you for all the additional information and the videos you have available. I almost chose the beginner course but after a great chat with one of your trainers, I think I correctly chose the advanced course. I've also had great feedback from other employees at my company who have also taken a course with Wise Owl. Great staff at every point through the journey."
Kyle Anabossi
Hoist Finance
"A great trainer and very knowledgeable! The confidence in his training was amazing and I knew that my understanding of SQL will be much better under his guidance. I liked how he was able to support anyone that was finding it hard or challenging, he didn't let anyone feel alone."
Raj Bains
PEI Group
"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

"Fantastic course with a fantastic trainer, who really went the extra mile and did an amazing job explaining coding concepts."
Nathaniel Sillett
Dale Underwriting Partners

Mitch Chambers

Simon Pagden

"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
"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
"All good, informative, friendly and entertaining. Our trainer provided excellent service."
Marcin Gabryelski
Nexperia UK Ltd
"This was a great follow on course to the beginner level. The course was well paced and the trainer fielded questions directly related to our work. Facilities at the venue were excellent as well. The course handbooks with exercises are well produced and will provide a good reference for later use. I'd highly recommend this course/company. Your YouTube channel prompted us to originally choose your course and the fact that there was a regional venue for the class."
Nathan Cain
Home Office
"Very happy with the content and the trainer, who was great and was able to answer our specific questions and tailor examples to our roles."
Jaden Bhanabhai
Adidas UK
"Course was great and very engaging. Thought the trainer pitched it perfectly and made it a very enjoyable two days. Would highly recommended to others."
Patrick Camm
Dale Underwriting Partners
"Found it easy to follow, liked being able to see trainer's screen and replicate at the same time. Enjoyed doing the exercises as that helped to cement the process."
Ellen Botto
Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT
"Excellent course for me as a relative beginner/novice to both SQL and Report Builder. An excellent trainer, friendly and patient to deal with any issues. Very knowledgeable on the course subjects, offering clear and concise explanations throughout. Adaptable to deal with any questions with easy-to-follow answers/examples."
