"It's great to get some extra information that isn't usually in the course (a walkthrough about measures was particularly helpful!)"
Jamie Yeo
Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG)
"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."

Samuel Chapman
The Phoenix Group
"An amazing trainer and really helped with engaging with the course. I loved the follow along aspect which made sure that we kept focus - I learned so much."
Nawal Raza-Malik
Department for Education
"Really great course and a really easy to follow intro to Power BI. The online training works really well as your tutor can see exactly what you're doing and give you pointers where needed. Our trainer was really friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend Wise Owl courses to anyone."
Carli Dobson
Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust
"Really good course, that was really well delivered. You could tell it hadn't just been picked off a Microsoft shelf."
Dave Clarke
London Ambulance Service NHS Trust
"The course was really useful and informative. I liked how it was interactive, and you could code/experiment as you went along. I also found the exercises a useful way to continue to solidify what you learnt."
Liz Gabriel
Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG)
"A great trainer and very patient when trying to get us all set up. Think it can be difficult to gauge an audience when you are doing a group session, however our trainer was very engaging, supportive and delivered the course at a good pace."
Daljit Patel
Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG)
"I found the course really well planned and engaging. The content covered a wide variety of things and I now feel I have a greater understanding and knowledge of Power BI."
Natalie Graham
Sellafield Ltd
"The trainer was really engaging and paced the content well."
Ian Getty
Torus62 Ltd
"I found the course very useful. The activities will be useful for future reference when implementing some of the content. The trainer was very patient and made the course easy to follow and enjoyable."
Sarah Clarke
Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT
"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."
Ruth Pearson
Maggie's
"Our trainer was great!"
Rory Ferguson
Dale Underwriting Partners
"Having attended Wise Owl courses before, I knew this would be the best way to learn more about SQL in a structured setting. I enjoyed the course and the content covered many useful SQL features. The trainer was friendly and welcoming and his delivery was excellent. He is clearly very knowledgeable about SQL and was able to answer all of our questions with ease. He gave us plenty of time to do the exercises with his help, which was particularly good as I sometimes find I forget things if I don't take the time to do them myself, once I've learnt them. Although a basic level of knowledge of SQL is naturally assumed going into an advanced course, I was never put on the spot or had to recall things that weren't in the course. I quite liked that approach."
Conor Fegan
Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG)
"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 brilliant! Explained concepts so clearly and the size of the training group was great."
Sophie Alderson
Department for Education
"The training worked perfectly! I had experienced the Power BI training in person but to have an online option that works so well, I can only thank you."
Andy Derbyshire
APSE Manchester
"The trainer was fabulous, and explained everything thoroughly."
Vicky Morris
AA Projects Ltd / Drees & Sommer UK Ltd
"This was probably one of the best courses I've been on. I was so impressed with the course content and the delivery. The trainer's ability to deliver quite extensive content while ensuring everyone understood and put it into practice, was awesome. His enthusiasm and attitude generally made this 2 day course an absolute pleasure. The venue was great, really good facilities and in a perfect central location. Going out for lunch was a great touch. Good to get out of the room for an hour and have some nice food! Thanks Wise Owl for a fab training experience!"
