"The course was really good as I spent most of the time actually using SQL myself, focusing on the practical rather than theoretical. Although, lots of material was provided to take away."

"Covered everything we needed at a great pace. Manuals and exercise solutions very complete. The materials online gave confidence in the ability of trainers and course content meeting requirements. Thanks for putting up with (and answering) all our questions. Overall, all as expected and a good venue in a great location - thanks very much."

"Course was fantastic, very well presented. The trainer was approachable and helpful and clearly explained course content. I would recommend (and will do) to others on team."

Paul Madden

Department for Education

"The course was very good and relevant to what I will be doing at work going forward. Trainer was excellent and pace was just right. The manual we got was also very good with good examples and diagrams to refer back to. It was also a nice change to go out for lunch rather than a buffet. Overall, it was one of the best courses I’ve been on. "

Tracy Little

Department for Education

"There was a lot to take in (especially in day 2) but the course materials are so extensive I feel confident I'll be able to find out how to do anything I might have forgotten."

Steve Pilkington

Department for Education

"Well structured, learned a lot. The trainer was very approachable in terms of questions and put in extra effort to hunt down answers to tricky problems. The lunches were also a nice touch, better than the usual packs of sandwiches you are given. Will definitely be applying a lot of what I learnt to my day-to-day work. The Wise Owl course seemed one of the few to take the learning beyond the real basics to intermediate level."

James Gallucci

Home Office

"Really enjoyed this course. Pitched at exactly the right level and the trainer explained everything really well and went the extra mile. Good website and clear details about the course contents."
