"Being on a course with staff from my team made sure that the course was tailor made for us, it was great when we could ask questions especially how this training would work for our own excel workbooks. The trainer was very helpful to explain using our work examples. We had heard good things about Wise Owl, and as we had recently completed the intermediate course, it made good sense to continue with the same provider."

"I thought the trainers were fantastic! They brought the learning to life and had the perfect balance of breaks for remote training. They were supportive and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Id be interested to see what other courses you offer, we'd love to use you again!"

"This was perfect for what I needed. Content just right. I was slightly worried that it might be very dull, but it wasn't at all. Our trainer did an excellent job of making it interesting and engaging, keeping us all involved and answering various difficult questions. Felt both well prepared AND responsive. Pacing good too."
Matt Page
Institution of Occupational Safety and Health
"Absolutely the best tutor I've had in any capacity thus far. Very charismatic and great jokes to keep the class awake and going, through an intense program. Keeping an eye on our screens so he's able to help if anyone has an issue - couldn't ask for better."

"This course was exactly what I needed to get up to speed on PowerBI, and I now feel confident in working with it in my role. The offer of continued help from the trainer if we were to e-mail was greatly appreciated too. I had never used PowerBI before and needed something that took me from newbie to reasonable user in a short timeframe, and this ticked all the boxes."

Lewis Johnson

"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."
