"Trainer was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the subject, and able to answer any question I had. The course was delivered at an appropriate speed, ensuring that no one was left behind."
Charlotte Jackson
Sellafield Ltd
"Good balance of material and application making the course easy to digest. Number of new elements not aware of as Power BI constantly developing, so good way of also keeping up to date. Very knowledgeable trainer!"
Kieth Denison
Oxley Developments
"A great trainer, always keeping people engaged. So knowledgeable and great at explaining in a way that everyone could relate to."
Suzanne Foody
Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd
"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
"A great instructor and the course content was perfect for the skills I was wanting to learn. Wise Owl came recommended by a few people, so definitely has a great reputation for quality courses and instructors."
Alexandra Thacker
FIS Global (WorldPay)
"Really well planned course - the use of virtual machines was excellent - not something I've ever experienced during an online training course and it felt very professional. The pre-course check the week before to iron out any technical issues, also meant that we didn't waste time troubleshooting on the day. A great trainer, very knowledgeable and kept the energy high each day which meant the sessions were easy to keep engaged with. I'm looking forward to using what I've learned and putting it into practice! Other members within our team had attended a previous session and described how useful it was."
Jamie-Leigh Edington
Sellafield Ltd
"The trainer was very informative and able to provide answers to any additional questions."
Emily Weston
MLCS3 Ltd
"Trainer was on point and very clear and concise in his explanations and demonstrations and very easy to get on with. Would recommend this course to anyone interested in the basics of Power BI."
Michael Cornish
Accord Healthcare
"Very interesting course and learned a lot of new skills around DAX. Just need to put them into practice! Our trainer was also amazing - very knowledgeable - there wasn't a question he couldn't answer with multiple different suggestions. "
Susan Spragg
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"The tutor I had was the most enthusiastic, humorous and intelligent teacher I could have ever asked for. He went above and beyond to make sure I understood the course content and as a result I never felt lost or unsure about anything complex. Will highly recommend to anyone else I come across who needs this."
Alex Morris
Cardinal Newman College
"Really enjoyed the course, it had a very good structure and our Trainer was top-class!"
Matt Hemming
Liquid Logic (System C)
"I was very pleased with the course and pace of it, the small group I think helped as whilst we had differing levels of experience we were similarly matched. The trainer was friendly and helpful throughout. The resources sent out prior to the training session were also beneficial and the trainer referred back to it at relevant points, so we knew where to look when not on the course. I had already used the software previously but found I still learnt a lot from this course. I had some knowledge of the content but it had been self taught for the majority and as such I wanted to learn what the software could do, to support the work that I was already doing."
Adrian Hall
Changing Lives
"An excellent trainer, really patient, kept the course flowing at a pace suitable for all participants."
Claire Payton
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"A great teacher who made all the content simple and easy to follow. There was a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, the venue was really nice and the restaurant lunches were an added bonus! I learnt a lot and actually really enjoyed it at the same time. Would definitely recommend to others. The training came recommended by some colleagues who had been on it previously."
Lucy Moor
Department for Education
"An excellent tutor, who gave a vivid understanding of how report builder works. He would make sure each and every one of us understood the topic before moving onto the next one. He structured his sessions in a way that it wasn't stressful, which made sure I had enough time to grasp what was being taught."
Joseph Philip
Torus62 Ltd
"Great course and a great trainer, only wish there'd been an extra day."
Neil Rutherford
Halton Borough Council
"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
"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
"I really enjoyed the course. It was simple to follow along and was at the right pace to understand everything being taught. Many thanks for a great two days!"
Lorna King
Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT
"Trainer was brilliant! Explained concepts so clearly and the size of the training group was great."
