"After the course I have a much better understanding of Power BI in general and functionality of DAX."
Olga Sergushova
Southend-on-Sea City Council
"Booking and course information were all communicated well. The venue and pace was good. There was a lot of content to cover (re-caps were most welcomed). The trainer showed patience throughout and was able to answer all questions."
Vicky Kearney
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"A fantastic tutor who made the subject really interesting and talked in depth about each process. I felt I learnt quite a lot during the course."
Daniel Milne
Durham County Council
"It was a great introductory course at a good pace. I had no prior SQL knowledge and found it really useful. It's good that we could copy over the exercises at the end of the course to enable us to practice in our own time. Our trainer was very friendly and approachable"
Cheryl Walker
APSE Manchester
"Enjoyed the course and learned a lot about Power BI, which I will be putting to use. I have been on Wise Owl courses before and always found them to be good."
Susan Spragg
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"Thought the course was excellent. All the resources were very good e.g. the handout, pen drive with all the examples. Course content was all relevant. Was a very quick pace but I found that good. Our trainer was great too."
Rachel Taylor
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"The course was very understandable and the trainer was very friendly and funny."
Lucy Ellams
Halton Borough Council
"The trainer was amazing, he really knew his stuff, was interesting in the way he presented things (even when the topic could have easily been boring) and went above and beyond."
Joe Sanders-Wilde
Hounslow Council
"It was great to know that our trainer could see what we were doing remotely and track with us. A positive experience of an on-line training course. Thank you."
Beverley McNamara
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"I loved the course, it was very engaging and got me so excited about Power BI. I actually love its potential and can see where it can be put into practice within my Service."
Diane Cooper-Ramsden
Barnsley MBC
"Very good training. Well paced, thorough and interactive. Supporting materials were very good and the trainer was very approachable, very helpful and had a really good manner."
Neil Harrison
Halton Borough Council
"I really liked how our trainer addressed issues an individual was having in a sensitive way, without anyone else in the group being aware it was you, yourself clicking on the wrong things!"
Vicky Toomey
Southampton City Council
"The content of the course was great and was supported by an extensive manual which I am grateful for. The course is really well organised and I loved that the trainees were applying live what they were learning using the remote desktop. I also loved that the trainer could see on his screen what we were doing and give us live feedback. I have seen how Devon County Council has used Power BI to share their traffic collision data in a visual way, and we would like to achieve something similar in Plymouth. The course is one step forward towards it."
Angelique Kergosien
Plymouth City Council
"A great trainer who explained everything very well."
Stuart Morley
Reigate and Banstead Borough Council
"Great course, well informed trainer. Days flew by."
Ryan McNally
APSE Manchester
"A lovely and approachable trainer with extensive knowledge."
Alicja Niedzwiedziuk
Southend-on-Sea City Council
"Really happy with the Power BI Fast Track course. Everything was explained clearly and made very easy to understand and the trainer was generous with providing practical tips for working with data and reports above and beyond the syllabus. The communication and set up before the course was also as smooth as possible. I've had a few courses with Wise Owl and looking forward to joining another one in the future. "
Kaili Jarv
Waltham Forest Council
"The course was very well delivered. Our trainer was very knowledgeable and his jokes even brought a positive mood to the course. He was very helpful and delivered the course at a very good pace, will definitely be doing another course with you in the future. I chose this course to gain more of an understanding how to use the different elements of SQL to manipulate the data in our council performance system. This has certainly helped me a lot and I am more confident of filtering data, using joins etc which I was a bit apprehensive about before."
Scott Lea
City of Lincoln Council
"It was a very good course, definitely thinking of ways to apply it to our team and use it in the future. I'm hoping that the exercise booklet provided will put theory into practice and the trainer has offered to go through it at a later date, which is very kind of him. Really enjoyed learning from our trainer, he has a likeable personality and is a good teacher."
Katalin Fulop
Devon County Council
"Course was great - trainer was very knowledgeable/flexible and happy to talk about related subjects/put things in a context that suited our needs. Have used twice before and course material always met our needs/exceeded expectations."
Luke Ferrans
Southampton City Council
