"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."
Mike Dolan
Individuals
"The tutor was really good at making sure the people with more experience didn't get bored whilst going at a pace slow enough for the beginners. The course material is clear and structured."
Sam Wareham
Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS FT
"The course was fantastic as was our trainer, who made it interesting and easy to follow. The range of topics we covered was extensive and we were even able to ask for help around our own PBI issues. Couldn't recommend the course enough! We chose the course as it offered a wide range of topics from visualizations to DAX, which was great for us as a team with varied PBI experience."
Samuel Meadows
Adidas UK
"This was a great follow on course to the beginner level. The course was well paced and the trainer fielded questions directly related to our work. Facilities at the venue were excellent as well. The course handbooks with exercises are well produced and will provide a good reference for later use. I'd highly recommend this course/company. Your YouTube channel prompted us to originally choose your course and the fact that there was a regional venue for the class."
Nathan Cain
Home Office
"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)
"The course was very good. Extremely useful for my job role, the trainer was very informative and I came away feeling a lot more confident than when I started. Thanks again."
Scott Quarmby
Network Plus
"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
"Really helpful, great trainer who was more than happy to answer any questions and show practical examples/solutions in a way that was understandable."
Andeep Chohan
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"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
"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."
Hannah Woods
South London and Maudsley NHS FT
"Our trainer was great! Really personable and great at engaging us all."
Sarah Hulme
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"Great training experience, fantastic and knowledgeable trainer. 100% suited to my needs, could not recommend enough"
Jaroslaw Borgul
Ifor Williams Trailers Ltd
"Really enjoyed both days and the trainer did an excellent job. "
James Lavelle
Ignite Systems
"Great teacher, who explained things thoroughly, thank you."
Hakon Hardrade
Operational Solutions Ltd
"Our trainer was an excellent provider. The course although quite fast paced, had excellent workbooks and manuals provided and the opportunity to ask questions meant that no one got left behind."
Julie Radcliffe
St Leger Homes of Doncaster
"A really good trainer, able to cope easily with the random questions we had and to ensure that everyone was able to keep up, despite differing levels of knowledge."
Zoe Oakley
Hertfordshire Constabulary
"The informal chats and lunch we had throughout the day helped make the course really engaging. Given it was a basic overview I feel I now have a really good grasp of Power BI to move forward with. Colleagues had done the course before and said how good it was."
Sophia Sharpley
Sage Publishing
"The course was concise and 'pitched' at the right level for the attendees. I have been on other PBI courses in the past and the size of the group and differing levels of understanding made the process disjointed. Your course however, and the access to supporting material, is both relevant and useful, delivered in a very efficient manner."
Dave Jones
Derby and Burton Hospitals NHS FT
"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."
Clare Taylor
London Borough of Lambeth
"Excellent trainer and pace of days. He made you feel relaxed and explained the course content in a easy to understand manner."
Becky Hayes
