"A lovely and approachable trainer with extensive knowledge."
Alicja Niedzwiedziuk

"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
"I thoroughly enjoyed the course, it was taught very well with useful information on key topics and some excellent exercises to actually put the skills into practice. The trainer was highly knowledgeable and went at a good speed, to ensure everything was clearly explained. Others in my organisation had attended the course and found it useful and taught well. Many thanks."
Clare Taylor

"I have used Wise Owl previously and found them excellent . . . a few years later and still excellent. The whole process is friendly and efficient."
Tom Morgan
Hounslow Council
"Fantastic tailored Power BI training. Our trainer was brilliant, knowledgeable and was very patient with us and so supportive of our different levels of knowledge. This course was tailored for a small group of users with mixed Power BI knowledge and WiseOwl were able to accommodate our needs, with no problem at all. Session was received really well and wouldn't hesitate to recommend."
Karen Allen
Halton Borough Council
"Brilliant as usual, we have been using Wise Owl for years. Love the availability of ongoing support after the course if needed."
Nicole Tavlas

"Really enjoyed the course and delivery style, which was fun and engaging. Our trainer really made everyone feel comfortable and captivated interest with various examples. It has given me some new useful tools for both in and outside of work."
Simon Hayes
Hounslow Council
"A great trainer, very attentive and made sure we were all able to grasp what was being taught. He took the time to make sure those with issues were supported. The course content was also very good, provided a very good overview of how we can use AI to improve productivity in the work we do. It helped to generate a lot of ideas and ways we could make improvements to our work. Overall, a great course and one I would recommend for those who have an interest in AI and want to get their foot in the door."
Sukhjeet Gill
Hounslow 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
"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)
"Totally brilliant course, the tutor was fabulous. Would certainly recommend :-)"
Wendy Wood
Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA)
"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
"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)
"To be honest, I received the manual(s) and my first thought was 3 days of training with this amount of content and all online - what a nightmare! I'm a software systems trainer myself and know first hand how tech can fail or lag and it's like trying to herd cats keeping your audience engaged and ensuring everyone is on track. We had a first class trainer, extremely knowledgeable and relatable. He kept the training on track and managed to keep everyone engaged. The frequent breaks definitely helped to maintain concentration and the interactive examples helped to bring the theory to life. The fact that he could also see all of our screens added an extra level of cohesion, something that I have (enviably) never seen before. I would have no hesitation in recommending Wise Owl for any future training needs. "
Sandra Hopwood
Reigate and Banstead Borough Council
"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

"Really well constructed, excellent trainer and we worked at a good pace."

"Quite intensive with lots to learn but really good trainer and really good documentation."
Andy Dobby
Newark and Sherwood District Council
"The course was brilliant. A great trainer, very patient and worked at a good speed (I don't like hanging around a lot). He is also a great guy and good fun, made the course very interesting and the days were good."
Karen Harrison
Reigate and Banstead Borough Council
"Great trainer. Pace of course was brilliant and learnt a lot. Really useful for expanding my skill set."
Kristin McIntosh
Newark and Sherwood District Council
"The trainer was very knowledgeable and able to answer all questions. The energy was kept high and friendly. I have attended a previous Wise Owl SSIS course and have referred back to the notes many times. Great content!"
