"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."

"A great trainer who explained everything clearly. It was great to go to a course like this where things are explained, rather than trying to figure out the basics online. Really enjoyed the course and found it really satisfying that I could do it! Colleagues had done the advanced course with Wise Owl and recommended the company."

"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."

"I took the Intro to SQL course and highly recommend it. Everything was organized and thoughtful from pre-course to the actual training. Our trainer was really good, knowledgeable, and friendly. As someone with no background in SQL, I was worried that I might not be able to go with the pace of training but our trainer made sure that everyone was getting along with the topics. Learned a lot and I'm excited to apply it all. Interested to learn more too!"

"I thought the course was superb. The content delivery and the accessibility to all was really impressive, having the exercises to work through during the course helped consolidate the knowledge. The content was really easy to follow and if we were ever stuck, were given the confidence to feel like we could ask for help. I have been on multiple different training courses with different providers and I can honestly say the course was delivered by the best trainer I have ever had. The passion he has for teaching and helping others learn was clearly on show and was so refreshing and great to see. Throughout both days he made you feel so welcome and that no question was a stupid question, he was always there to help and guide you through any problems we had and overall he was just amazing, I couldn't have asked for any more and he went above and beyond my expectations for the course and what I would gain from it.

"I really enjoyed the course. The pace was just right as it was brisk but I could keep up. There were plenty of interesting topics and I was never just sat listening, I was always involved. My manager attended the course a few years ago and recommended it."
Scott Richardson

"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
Liquid Logic (System C)
"It was highly interactive: having to type out and run the code alongside the trainer ensured that I learned how to do it (vs trying to absorb lots of theory from powerpoints!) Our trainer was very personable, and ensured that we stayed engaged throughout - not easy to do over a three day course delivered remotely!"
Myriam Telford

"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
"Our trainer was amazing! The whole team loved him. Super patient with all of us who were just using SQL for the first time. His knowledge was fantastic and he tried really hard to relate it back to our business and Data Bricks, for us which is a massive help. Everyone enjoyed the course and all feedback so far has been incredibly positive."
Jonathan Bibby

"The course was brilliant from start to finish. The trainer was friendly and knowledgeable. I felt like I learned a lot that I can put into practice at work and would definitely be interested in doing another course with WiseOwl. I have recommend the course to my colleagues."

"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."

"The trainer was great, answered a number of specific questions and expanded to explain why things worked the way they do, which really helped with my own understanding. The training was well paced with plenty of opportunities to have a go and ask questions."

Benjamin Nutter

"An excellent trainer, efficient and knowledgeable. If someone dropped from the session he'd get them up to speed quickly and without disrupting the flow of the course. The course was well designed and the exercises helped to cement lessons. I also have the physical course manual and exercises, which will be a great resource for me going forward."
