Friendly and professional training ... guaranteeed▼
How can any training company guarantee the quality of their courses? Here's how:
We limit our courses to no more than 6 people per class.
Unlike almost every other computer training company, we never subcontract or use freelancers - here's why this matters.
The best courseware in the industry? See for yourself▼
Our course manuals and exercises are by some way the best in the computer training industry. Fortunately you don't have to take our word for this - you can see for yourself:
It's dangerous to be sanctimionius, but we can see no possible benefit that tobacco and gambling companies bring to the world (and quite a lot of harm), so we choose not to work for them. Sorry.
We've put a lot of thought into making our online courses as useful and interactive as possbile:
Delegates use Remote Desktop to connect to our machines, so our trainers can see everyone's screens at all time.
We arrange (without charge) a half-hour pre-course check for each online delegate before courses, to ensure that they everyone will be able to join the course seamlessly when it begins.
As well as providing a PDF of the manual and exercises for each online course delegate we will (again without charge) also post this out to each person a few days before if required.

"A really good trainer and appreciated him talking through stuff, even when we went off on a tangent."
Matthew Barnes
Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd
"Good balance of fun and keeping to the course topics. Great instructor - not boring at all! Everything ran so smoothly, and I felt comfortable asking questions. Genuinely had fun."
Izzy Dhamdusdi
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"I found this course extremely useful and easy to follow - our trainer was stupendous at taking his time to explain the content and monitoring our practice/responding to any questions. My colleagues recommended Wise Owl and now that I’ve taken the course, I highly recommend it to others."
Jenna de St. Jorre
MSI Reproductive Choices (formerly Marie Stopes)
"I was the only one on this course and this meant I was able to ask as many questions as I needed, cover the topics I felt were most useful, and complete as many practice exercises as I wanted. The trainer, could not have been better - he explained everything really well, and was more than happy to answer all my questions, even if he'd already gone over it. The online nature of the course worked really well and the day was a good length. The manual is super detailed and helpful, and it's good to have the course exercises book too so I can practice on my own after the course. The fact the class was capped at 6 was a real draw, especially as it was a virtual course. The course overview was also comprehensive and it seemed aimed at complete beginners, which was what we needed."
Tilly Baker Hine
UK-German Connection
"Our trainer made the sessions really enjoyable. Loads of interaction and engagement. He clearly explained everything and I was able to understand. Couldn't ask for a better trainer."
Taiba Chaudhry
Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG)
"Really good course & great that it is such a small group. I have previously attended in-person Wise Owl courses before. The online course worked really well (just a couple of tiny interruptions when people dropped out or sound lost). Taking the time to check the set up ahead of time & being able to have the pack posted to me was great. "
