"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. "

"Great course! Our trainer was excellent in his delivery. Content was great and he was happy to answer off course points."
Scott Sharp
The Phoenix Group
"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
"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 online experience whilst works, doesn't replicate F2F but it didn't distract from the course content. The trainer was knowledgeable of topic and if he was posed a question, and the answer wasn't that clear, he would find the time in breaks to source the answer."
Stewart Griffiths
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"Our trainer delivered an excellent course. He was very engaging and patient and always happy to answer our questions. It was generally a very relaxing online learning environment and the pace of the course was perfect. Content was interesting and it really felt we could apply the learnings to our work. Thanks!"
Gerard Nugent
Stroke Association
"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've been on two Wise Owl courses so far and both times I started as a complete beginner and left feeling fairly confident to use the software package, I've been trained on. Our trainer was fantastic. I really appreciated his enthusiasm throughout and his patience when helping me resolve mistakes."
Libin Osman

"The trainer was super patient and helpful. Everything was clearly explained. A really useful course on Introduction to SQL."
Sema Guler

"I would absolutely recommend. We had a superb trainer!"
Antoine DuQuesnay
Civil Aviation Authority
"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
"Fantastic course and our trainer was amazing! The way the course ran with the use of remote desktop and the trainer being able to ensure you were following the right steps worked really well and ensured no one was left behind. I learnt so much from the course that I can't wait to apply into my day to day role!"
Laura Murphy

"Course was well structured and very informative."
Ryan McNally

"Quite intensive with lots to learn but really good trainer and really good documentation."
Andy Dobby
Newark and Sherwood District Council
"Firstly, great that pre course checks took place to ensure no delay in getting started, and we all had packs sent out. Secondly, great that we could all be seen and that our trainer was excellent at keeping an eye on us all and helping us through any issues e.g. if we had missed a step in the sequence / clicked on the wrong thing etc so we were all progressing at the same pace. Also, he answered any questions we asked or found out the answers during breaks. Our trainer was really patient, and his personality meant we felt comfortable to interact and ask questions / for help when required. I would definitely recommend Wise Owl to others :-)."
Claire Muxworthy
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"Fantastic Trainer and Online Training Experience. Power BI has always been something that I have been wary of, but thanks to the amazing trainer, everything was explained so simply, I now feel at ease with the system."
Terry Lancaster

"Our trainer was extremely approachable and great with the group. I found the course extremely helpful with lots of useful tips. I will recommend Wise Owl to my colleagues; it was recommended to me"
