"An amazing trainer who kept the course interesting and engaging. I feel in a really good place after the course to begin working with Power BI more regularly and have a much better understanding of DAX, which I knew hardly anything about prior."
Laura Loades
Adidas UK
"Trainer was fantastic at keeping us engaged with the content, and going above and beyond to answer any more detailed questions we could have."
Simon Pagden
Hertfordshire County Council
"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. He made two days of excel fun and enjoyable (difficult task). Thank you so much! It was super helpful and will definitely improve my productivity going forwards."
Alice Foster
Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG)
"Training was very interactive and this helped keep me engaged throughout both days - the course was quite a long one to do over teams but it didn't feel like it."
Caitlin Irving
Sellafield Ltd
"My group's trainer was absolutely brilliant. He knew Power BI inside-out and could answer any questions we had straight away."
Samuel Chapman
The Phoenix Group
"Course was well structured and was a pleasure to go through. A great teacher who lead us through all tasks and answered any questions we had."
Daniel Ludlow
B&M Pallets
"Great trainer. Pace of course was brilliant and learnt a lot. Really useful for expanding my skill set."
Kristin McIntosh
Newark and Sherwood District Council
"Great content in the course. We were given the opportunity to perform exercises which personally I think is the best way to learn. Our trainer was always on hand to answer any questions and made the course interesting and knew when it was time to break! Really enjoyed it and learnt a lot, thanks."
Avril Ball
Adidas UK
"This was a really good course, the best course I've taken in a long time and I am already applying what I've learnt."
Vanessa Todman
Department for Education
"Course was engaging as we had to complete the work ourself, rather than just watch someone else do it. Our trainer was very enthusiastic and passionate about Power BI, which also helped enhance the experience."
Callum Smith
The Phoenix Group
"A great teacher, always able to explain terminology and how things worked to varying degrees of understanding of automation. Having pre-set laptops with all necessary access granted alongside paper and USB for the content covered is a game changer, there's usually always things you think are great but forget once the course is over so being able to go over it again and again without having to book another session is great."
Blair Stewart
Certas Energy
"Excellent course, worked well online and felt an excellent interactive experience. Plenty of one on one time and would use again without any doubt. Used WiseOwl before and had the knowledge the course would provide everything needed."
Simon Lyons
The Original Factory Shop
"Brilliant course for a beginner, especially with the course manual provided - really useful when working on anything Power BI. Our trainer was absolutely brilliant with us all, judged the pace perfectly and was happy to go on small tangents when questions were asked. "
Mark Bird
The Phoenix Group
"Trainer was great, really relaxed, engaging and most importantly patient!"
Catriona Gallimore
Halton Borough Council
"Trainer was exceptional, as he had been in all the previous training."
Stuart Gray
Wythenshawe Community Housing Group (WCHG)
"I really enjoyed the training and thought our trainer was fantastic at taking us through the content at the right pace, whilst also dealing with topics that came up ad hoc. This will really help us on our Power BI journey! We've used Wise Owl a few times now and find the course content and trainers to be excellent. Thank you!"
Richard Warren
Southend-on-Sea City Council
"Really well done course and our trainer was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging and helpful."
Max Colquhoun
The Arch Company
"Really great course with a fantastic trainer. I already had existing knowledge of SQL as I use it regularly in my day job, the topics covered in this course aligned with areas I had identified as lacking in my knowledge."
Hannah Keogan
Department for Education
"The trainer was very friendly and approachable and good at connecting with us and guiding the session."
Ayana Sakey
The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE)
