"As a graduate, I found this course very useful. I thought the trainer was great, always willing to slow down or repeat something when I didn't fully understand. Thank you."
Harry Talks
Clearwater International
"Great course, well worth the money and our trainer was great! Would definitely use Wise Owl again."
Stuart Allan
Lloyds Banking Group
"The course content was interesting and covered all the key areas I was interested in learning about when signing up for the course. The course moved at a good pace and was well balanced between instructor-lead content and practical examples. The trainer even followed up after the course with further information on some technical questions, allowing me to comfortably and easily start using Python and VS Code. Was a good balance between course length (3 days) and coverage (basic to intermediary topics). I also prefer the fact that it's live and instructor-lead, rather than being a purely audio visual experience (i.e. not a YouTube video). Wise Owl also has a good track record with our company and other delegates on other course and clearly have expertise in the areas their courses cover."

"Our trainer was brilliant! Kept the course at the right pace so everyone kept up and I thoroughly enjoyed the training course."
Graham Watters
The Phoenix Group
"Our trainer was brilliant. Pacing was great. As a company we've used Wise Owl multiple times before. Every course they've run has been fantastic."
Mary Groutage
Sucden Financial Limited
"I enjoyed the interactive nature of the course, as personally, I find I learn best by actually carrying out the exercises, rather than just being shown. I also liked the repetition of the tasks, as this helped me learn the principles."
Tom Tuck
Macfarlanes LLP
"Great course, provided by a great trainer, who was really knowledgeable and was also happy to answer the many questions that I had."
Charlie Bruce
LGT Wealth Management UK LLP
"I found the whole experience with Wise Owl to be excellent, from the booking, through the pre-course technical testing and manuals, to the course itself. It was a pleasure to work with you. I like the fact that our trainer was able to watch over us in our individual environments and gently guide us through when we got stuck (without calling out to the other attendees). When we raised queries that couldn't be answered there and then, he took them away and came back with answers later. Originally chose Wise Owl because we'd been let down by another provider. I hadn't heard of Wise Owl before then but your website gave me a good introduction. I found the way you interacted with me during the booking and prep phases to be very professional. The course itself was excellent and the training manual and exercises will be useful to refer to in future. The style of the training was really good too - only a small number of attendees meant that no one got left behind and we were encouraged to ask questions. I will recommend Wise Owl to others. Thanks"

"Great course content, booklet is really helpful and nicely printed. Trainer was really helpful and engaging. Thanks again."
Vickesh Patel
Clearwater International
"All good from my point of view, very happy with the training provided again. Have used Wise Owl for a number of courses now, always engaging trainers with good content so was happy to use again."
John Ensor
Montanaro Asset Management Ltd
"A great trainer, his knowledge was amazing and he was really keen to help and make it relevant to us which was great! We were undecided between this and the three day intensive course but really happy we started on this course and can go away and do our own work on macros before moving on to the advance course!"
Grace Aspin-Radford
CFC Underwriting
"A really engaging trainer who made the course enjoyable. The content was clear to follow, and we were provided with ample resources to aid us with our training and to take away to use in our own time. This course was recommended and used by my company in the past."
Madeleine Lewis
FIS Global (WorldPay)
"The course overall was great and I am happy I did it. The trainer was very friendly and taught everything thoroughly and with a lot of patience. The course materials were really helpful and thoroughly covered all aspects of SQL, especially for someone new to it! One thing which was particularly valuable was the step-by-step instructions included within."
Jasdeep Sandhu
CFC Underwriting
"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)
"Great course, really enjoyed it. It has so much potential to help out with day to day tasks at both work and home. Really useful to have the interactions and overviews of other Microsoft products such as Power BI, adaptive card designer and MS Graph. Whilst I can understand that the new designer has bugs, it was actually quite beneficial encountering these during the course as it allowed us to see how to problem solve them in the future."
Kerry Coyne
The Phoenix Group
"Our trainer was great! He had the right level of enthusiasm and great knowledge of all aspects of Power BI and how it links to other more familiar tools. I was really worried about the remote aspect of the training, feeling like I wouldn't get as much out of it but I actually think I prefer it to being onsite! You have more of a direct focus with the trainer and they can see what you're doing so clearly and quickly. If we do more, I'm voting for remote!"
Alice Dovey
The Phoenix Group
"Really loved the course and we learnt so much!! Very easy to follow."
Sarah Underwood
CFC Underwriting
"Thoroughly enjoyed the course. A great teacher who didn't overcomplicate anything which I was a bit surprised by, as when you think of anything related to coding you'd assume it requires a lot of brain power which can be a bit overwhelming, but that wasn't the case at all. Would love to come back for another course. Thanks!"
Syed Hasnain
Sucden Financial Limited
"Our trainer was great! Kept the course entertaining while explaining everything as many times as needed!"
Chloe Brown

"A good introduction to Python. A very patient trainer who did a great job delivering and giving extra help when required. Many thanks."
