"Our trainer made the course very accessible, really appreciated his enthusiasm!"
Conor Maloney
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"I was thoroughly impressed with the course overall. The pre check meeting was a great first impression to the course. Our instructor, was not only an amazing teacher but kept us all entertained and engaged over the 2 days. The course content and pace was perfect for someone like me with no experience of SQL and for those with a bit of experience. I would highly recommend. "
Eliza Edwards
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"A very patient, articulate and inspiring trainer who is clearly passionate about his subject. Power BI was new to me and I found the course overwhelming and tiring at times but the trainer kept me going with his good natured enthusiasm! "
Lindsey Strickland
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"It was a great course, very informative, and our trainer was great at being flexible to the group's ability and needs. Would highly recommend."
Kirsty Trent
Department for Education
"Excellent as always :)"
Jon Nagl
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"An excellent trainer, really patient, kept the course flowing at a pace suitable for all participants."
Claire Payton
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"The course was really good. Well-timed and organised and wasn't too slow or fast for a new user to pick up on. I'd done a bit of self-training online but wanted a course where I could interact with and pose questions to a trainer and have a bit more insight into a SQL database."
Andrew Griffiths
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"Really liked the course - enjoyed how the trainer was willing to address additional questions at the end of the course, about indexing and how this applies to our work."
Siobhan Humphreys
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"One of the best tutors I have had for any training course I've ever done (and I have done a few). I haven't done any coding but the trainer was able to lay out the basics and build upon them, to have a good foundation of knowledge to use in more advanced techniques. This course was suggested by my manager and I think I'll be back for the advanced one!"
Alex Howarth
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"A great presenter, really helpful and really good at explaining concepts."
Alistair Rice
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"A really nice trainer who made the course really accommodating. A really worthwhile course."
Holly Keay
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"A great course! The trainer is so knowledgeable but explained everything in terms I could understand. He also spoke about examples which would fit into my line of work, this really helped to add perspective and depth to my understanding."
Claire Payton
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"Amazing courses! Great trainer, pace and content. I literally couldn't have asked for better introductions to SQL and Power BI. Plus I have some many great resources to refer back to in the future :) Thank you!"
Simone Capp
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"The trainer was excellent - he took the time to "get to know the students", was warm and welcoming - was very patient when people were struggling with difficult concepts - it was a truly enjoyable experience (never thought i would say that about excel - lol!!!)"
Alex Mason
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"A great trainer and very patient when trying to get us all set up. Think it can be difficult to gauge an audience when you are doing a group session, however our trainer was very engaging, supportive and delivered the course at a good pace."
Daljit Patel
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"The trainer was fantastic, really helpful and made the session highly enjoyable."
Mitchell Brain
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"Our trainer was great, very clear and happy to go into any questions we came up with. I liked how flexible the course was depending on the attendees' ability levels and interests. I also thought the model of typing along with the trainer (rather than sitting through a bunch of slides) worked really well to keep me engaged and awake, even on a Friday afternoon!"
Isobel Russ
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"Trainer was excellent at explaining and teaching, friendly and helpful. Also good flow of material and progression of topics. I also think it was a good idea to check technical set-up before the course."
Michaela Hoffmannova
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"Excellent course. Having used excel for many years, there were still some tips and best practice that had passed me by, having now learnt these they will save me time in the future. The tutor was great at explaining the technical terms and made things click (for example the text tip when you type a formula that shows you which part of the formula you are on). Thank you!"
Jody Gaisford
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"The course was really engaging and the tutor was knowledgeable and delivered the content at the right pace. The paper workbooks were great as I could make notes for each section. "
