"Great course. The trainer was really knowledgeable and happy to answer all questions. Online course format worked well and the way the trainer viewed our screens meant he was able to give us hints/advice if we'd made any typos/errors, without holding the other delegates up."
Lyndsey Bell
Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Service
"A great tutor and the course was incredibly informative. Our trainer was able to tailor elements of the course to our needs, so almost had the feel of a one to one training course. I would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to further their knowledge and understanding of Power BI. Initially I was unsure as to whether to choose the Data or Report Power BI course, however I felt the course's description explained the differences well."
Sophie Jones
The University of Manchester
"Thank you so much for a great course! I enjoyed it. There were heaps of really great learning and also it was digestible. So for me that is a big win!"
Sharlene Nair
Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons
"The training worked perfectly! I had experienced the Power BI training in person but to have an online option that works so well, I can only thank you."
Andy Derbyshire

"Well planned and presented."
Rob Cook
Live Nation (Music) UK Limited
"Really great course. I liked the pace the course ran at - fast enough to keep me interested but slow enough that I could keep up. Very approachable trainer & I learnt much more than I expected to."
Vicki Howard
MSI Reproductive Choices (formerly Marie Stopes)
"The course was invaluable in building my confidence with Power BI. The trainer was very clear and helpful and I have already built my first dashboard."
Peter Eddleston
Adidas UK
"Great course - exactly the right level for me. Fantastic trainer."
Sally Frost
Department for Education
"This course was pitched just right for our skill levels. Pacing and content were spot on. Our trainer was approachable and fielded all of our daft questions! The venue was located perfectly for the station. Materials provided in support of the course were really good and I'll keep them as reference. I can't think of anything that I would have liked to see changed. We chose this particular course as we were wanting to do a classroom based one (and Manchester was an ideal location) and we have been with Wise Owl before."
Nathan Cain
Home Office
"Trainer was fantastic. Really engaging two day course!"
James Wood
Great Western Railway (GWR)
"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
Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG)
"The course was very well run and our trainer was great!"
Euan Wilkins
Department for Education
"A good introduction to Python. A very patient trainer who did a great job delivering and giving extra help when required. Many thanks."
Louise Moir
The Phoenix Group
"I really enjoyed the course and found it to be very informative."
Lucy Shephard
Great Western Railway (GWR)
"Thought the course was great - loads of content but at a steady pace and our trainer was really good. Our company has used Wise Owl before and the Power BI Intro course looked a great course to begin my Power BI journey."
Dale Norman
Cormar Carpets
"The trainer made the session fun and engaging."
Daniel Milne
Durham County Council
"Quite intensive with lots to learn but really good trainer and really good documentation."
Andy Dobby
Newark and Sherwood District Council
"I thought the training was a good introduction to SQL. The trainer was obviously very experienced and I found it useful that he explained why certain aspects were important, rather than just how. He was clear and easy to understand. "
Jessica Clark
West Berkshire Council
