"Very informative course with the correct amount of work covered to suit all attendees. A very knowledgeable tutor with vast experience of the software. Looking forward to attending future courses! "
Shaun Cunningham
H&T Presspart
"A fantastic trainer and so knowledgeable; he was able to answer every query and even spent time looking further into more complex issues for us. He works at a very good pace, is friendly, welcoming and puts you at ease. The exercises work very well and the approach to these is excellent, with our trainer leaving us to work on them unless we ask for help."
Becky Young
Newark and Sherwood District Council
"Course was great and very engaging. Thought the trainer pitched it perfectly and made it a very enjoyable two days. Would highly recommended to others."
Patrick Camm
Dale Underwriting Partners
"So many additional tips and tricks from our trainer, as well as the core course content. Really useful and a big eye opener to what's possible! Thank you."
Philippa Reynolds
Southend-on-Sea City Council
"A knowledgeable and enthusiastic trainer, who read the group well. He picked up on the lightbulb moments (for us) and helped to talk through potential solutions we could apply. Would highly recommend Wise Owl for future training."
Jude Brennan-Ward
Cambridgeshire Constabulary
"Loved the really quick tips that were shared - I am already using these fast wins! The trainer was engaging and knowledgeable and really tailored the training to what the delegates needed/wanted, without missing out the already planned content."
Georgina Holmes
Southend-on-Sea City Council
"Excellent Course. Trainer was eloquent and explained subject matter very well and was also very patient."
Anna Kulpa
Landauer Group
"I was impressed by our trainer's thoroughness - any questions that he could not answer on the spot, he took away and answered the next day, having found workarounds to even the most obscure of questions we had for him! His pace of teaching and clarity was perfect, taking the stress out of learning new things."
Lisa Anastassiu
The Phoenix Group
"Great use of technology seeing how students are getting on on screens and proactively offering support. Interactive and live, perfect for all kinds of learners, visual, auditory, kinetic, you really get the full experience. Safe & open space to ask questions and explore. Good pace and structure."
Rafaela Monteiro
PwC
"The course was very well taught & it was the clear that the trainer was very knowledgeable and had lots of experience. Teaching online was great as the instructor could clearly see what we were doing on the Remote Desktop. Plenty of breaks which was good as too much information too quickly would normally cause a headache! Chose fast track SQL to learn as much as possible in a short space of time. Glad to have learnt parts from both intro to SQL and advanced SQL course, definitely made the most of our time."
Evie Topp
Clayton Glass Ltd
"The course was excellent, very insightful!"
Emma Morgan
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"I thoroughly enjoyed the advanced sql course. I had attended the basic sql course in October and this course was a great continuation on the topics learnt. I picked up lots of new and useful skills that I will be able to transfer over into my daily work, which has drastically improved since the basic course. My trainer was superb also, extremely knowledgeable on every topic covered and his passion really came through. He answered all the questions we asked over the 2 days with great insight and knowledge and was really helpful over the duration of the course. I have really enjoyed both courses and would definitely recommend Wise Owl to anyone who requires training in the future."
Cameron Daulby
Ifor Williams Trailers Ltd
"Training was very interactive and this helped keep me engaged throughout both days - the course was quite a long one to do over teams but it didn't feel like it."
Caitlin Irving
Sellafield Ltd
"Our trainer was very friendly and helpful and answered any questions we had. He even took the time out of his evening to research unfamiliar questions."
Liberty Payne-Wright
DHU Healthcare CIC
"Loved the course. The trainer was extremely thorough, clear, helpful and engaging. We were all delighted with his teaching."
Henry Browne
Paragon Asra Housing Group (PA Housing)
"An amazing trainer and really helped with engaging with the course. I loved the follow along aspect which made sure that we kept focus - I learned so much."
Nawal Raza-Malik
Department for Education
"Our trainer was extremely knowledgeable and very easy to work with. His enthusiasm for the subject and product was infectious."
Vince Baglole
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"I just wanted to highlight the excellent job our trainer did leading the course. Despite it being fully remote, it was an engaging session where everyone felt they could speak up, ask their questions and get the help they needed. I almost felt like we were all sitting in a room together. It was a friendly atmosphere, and I really enjoyed my 2 days. Our trainer was knowledgeable, open and friendly - thank you! "
Ellie Hortop
PwC
"A great instructor, who made sure everyone was at the same point and taught through a fully interactive three days – which best fits my learning style. Thank you for the well-delivered course on PBI and intro to DAX."
James Roberts
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"I found the content really useful. Each topic was covered thoroughly and the pace was perfect to allow me to feel fully confident before moving on"
