"Our trainer was extremely knowledgeable about SQL (and movies!) and was always keen and able to answer any of our questions with expert detail. It was a pleasure to interact with him and he was very welcoming. I would gladly take another course with Wise Owl in the future."
Conor Fegan
Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG)
"Trainer was really engaging, knew his stuff and was helpful in guiding us to utilising SSRS effectively. He seemed to really enjoy teaching us and we could tell. Well delivered course and great content, example database to use. The trainer slightly adapted his delivery based on what he believed we would need and he was right."
Nathan Vickery
TVS Supply Chain Solutions
"The trainer was really engaging and delivered the course excellently - thank you! Recommended by a colleague in L&D."
Nena Adrienne
Wythenshawe Community Housing Group (WCHG)
"Company feedback for WiseOwl has been great. Personally, this is the second time I've been on a course with the company and I couldn't fault it."
Hiten Mistry
Ultimate Products Global Sourcing (UPGS)
"Trainer did a good job of focussing on those elements of the course which were likely to be most relevant to us. It was much better than previous SQL courses I have attended as they tended to focus too much on the theory needed to pass Microsoft certification, which is not relevant to me. I just need to know how to carry out various tasks in SQL and that is what Wise Owl provided. "
David Nolan
Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC)
"I thought that the pace of the course was good. We had an excellent trainer; personable, keeping explanations to the point, and leading 'code along' examples of the topics in a way I found both accessible and instructive. I found the suggested real world implementations of concepts that we covered to be helpful. The fundamentals of SQL were covered in such a way that I was able to understand the topics without being side-tracked by complex alternative ways of doing things. The exercises we completed were appropriate for such a short course, and very much helped to solidify my understanding of the useful Left Join. We covered the advanced course at a pace I found to be pleasantly challenging while remaining interesting. Overall I though that the course has been an invaluable help to using SQL in the workplace, and the online training was practical, enjoyable and expertly paced. The course was recommended by a colleague!"
Jonathan Ferguson
Southbank Centre
"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
"The course was brilliant. The trainer clearly knew his stuff and there was obviously a lot of effort that had gone into the resources. I really enjoyed myself."
David Wilson
Liquid Logic (System C)
"Our trainer was amazing! The whole team loved him. Super patient with all of us who were just using SQL for the first time. His knowledge was fantastic and he tried really hard to relate it back to our business and Data Bricks, for us which is a massive help. Everyone enjoyed the course and all feedback so far has been incredibly positive."
Jonathan Bibby

"The course was really well paced. The trainer made sure we understood the basics before continuing."

Rosie Ecclestone

"An excellent teacher and trainer. The course content was specifically tailored to suit our needs and he did a wonderful job teaching us it and further enlightening us on a number of topics. I can't recommend him highly enough."
Thomas Crozier

"Our trainer was super helpful and always made sure to help/make things clearer if I didn't understand. He really made the course enjoyable too so thanks! "
