Vince Baglole
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"I really enjoyed my training and if I asked a question the trainer wasn't sure about, he was great at getting me an answer. The course documentation is great as well, I'm sure I'll be referring to it lots."

Junedul Alom
Torus62 Ltd
"Our trainer delivered an excellent course. He was very engaging and patient and always happy to answer our questions. It was generally a very relaxing online learning environment and the pace of the course was perfect. Content was interesting and it really felt we could apply the learnings to our work. Thanks!"
Gerard Nugent
Stroke Association
"Thought the course was excellent. All the resources were very good e.g. the handout, pen drive with all the examples. Course content was all relevant. Was a very quick pace but I found that good. Our trainer was great too."
Rachel Taylor
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"Loved the course. The trainer was extremely thorough, clear, helpful and engaging. We were all delighted with his teaching."
Henry Browne
Paragon Asra Housing Group (PA Housing)
"An amazing teacher! I was particularly impressed with the pacing off the classes, they never felt too fast or slow. It was a matter of layering simple concepts on top of each other until we could understand something quite complicate, which really worked for me. I've been singing Wise Owl's praises ever since!"
Conor Anderson
PEI Group
"Trainer was great! Very patient with all of us and very knowledgeable in helping us to understand. Amazing communication skills!"
Muhtaseeb Syed
Department for Education
"Our trainer was so easy to follow, clear with his instructions and very patient. I liked the way the course was segmented, with short breaks. A great experience, thanks!"
Kate Joynson
East Cheshire NHS Trust
"Trainer was excellent at explaining and teaching, friendly and helpful. Also good flow of material and progression of topics. I also think it was a good idea to check technical set-up before the course."
Michaela Hoffmannova
Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG)
"I have attended a few PBI courses and we had by far the best tutor I've come across, his knowledge and teaching methods were amazing! He brought context to the lessons using examples to explain difficult DAX concepts by comparing and contrasting DAX formulas, which I found easier to digest. Also, we were all working together as a group so no one was left behind. The course was chosen based on the listed content, but our trainer made a valid point that all (Wise Owl) course instructors are encouraged to influence the course contents and tailor these when needed, I think this approach works well!"
Lola Beyioku
London Ambulance Service NHS Trust
"I found the trainer really dynamic, patient and chatty, and he explained all the content very well and made it interesting to work through by providing a database on films that was invigorating to work through."
George Wherry
Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG)
"A lovely and approachable trainer with extensive knowledge."
Alicja Niedzwiedziuk
Southend-on-Sea City Council
"Instructor was very informed and super helpful."
Katherine Mercer
MSI Reproductive Choices (formerly Marie Stopes)
"The course was exceptionally well-delivered, and as a group, we thoroughly enjoyed the learning experience. Our trainer was very personable and approachable and his deep knowledge of DAX and Power BI made the content much easier to grasp. We particularly appreciated how he tailored the course to our needs, addressed the examples we provided, and kept the session interactive to reinforce the concepts. The pacing was for us as a group was spot-on, allowing ample time for questions and hands-on practice... and a cuppa ;) Overall, we would highly recommend this training to anyone looking to enhance their Power BI and DAX skills. The trainer was brilliant - his expertise, clear communication, and engaging teaching style made all the difference in making our course both informative and enjoyable. We have undertaken previous courses with yourselves which were similarly well-received by colleagues."
Michael Abson
Durham County Council
"I thought the online format worked really well. The course was well-paced and covered all the topics I needed to enable me to fill in the gaps in my Power BI knowledge (having used it a little to date). I feel entirely confident to re-create reports that I have already been working with and also to create new ones with improved design and complexity."
Matthew Tierney
United Endeavour Trust
"I thoroughly enjoyed the course, it was taught very well with useful information on key topics and some excellent exercises to actually put the skills into practice. The trainer was highly knowledgeable and went at a good speed, to ensure everything was clearly explained. Others in my organisation had attended the course and found it useful and taught well. Many thanks."
