"Our trainer was extremely knowledgeable and very easy to work with. His enthusiasm for the subject and product was infectious."
Vince Baglole

"A fabulous tutor who has taught me so much. She is obviously a very knowledgeable lady and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone wishing to learn Excel. Thank you."
Lindsey Reed
Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service
"The course was excellent and easy to follow. A great trainer and a really nice down to earth man which made the course enjoyable and fun. I would highly recommend Wise Owl training to anyone as this is now my 3rd completed course and everything about it has been great from start to finish. We were tying to learn SQL on YouTube using Wise Owl tutorials. We thought that they looked good so decided to give you a go. Glad we did!"

"Excellent training as always."
Faye Chard

"The course was really good and thoroughly enjoyed it, the trainer's knowledge was immense. He explained everything so well. Really great insight to what can be achieved using Power BI, I was invited to attend this course as it is used in my organization. It has given me a taste of what it can be used for."
Alex Litwinski
Merseyside Fire & Rescue Authority
"Really helpful, great trainer who was more than happy to answer any questions and show practical examples/solutions in a way that was understandable."
Andeep Chohan
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"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
"Great course - connecting through a remote desktop, I feel was valuable. To have the trainer able to see if I was going wrong was great. Good reputation among my colleagues."
Charlotte Clare
Bedfordshire Police
"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 enjoyed the course and the trainer knows his stuff. "
Adam Thomas
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"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
"Really good course and the trainer was excellent! I like how time was managed, making sure we spent more time on the more important things and less time on things we may never use."
Lauren Szarvas
Bedfordshire Police
"An amazing course, really provided clarity with the content and I am really looking forward to putting it into practice. Course tutor was really lovely, patient and knowledgeable. Starting to look at further courses with your company for power automate and DAX :) I knew what Power BI could do but had no idea where to start! Now I have attended this course I am confident I could put practices into place that will make my life easier and put capacity back into my diary."
Toni-Marie Norman
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"Wise Owl was recommended by our IT team and we are very happy with the quality of the content and delivery. We have recommended to another team and to other NHS organisations."
Linda Phillips
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"The course met my expectations and was well delivered, by a clearly knowledgeable trainer."
Ian Voce
Merseyside Resilience Forum
"An excellent trainer and it was definitely the best online course I have ever attended. Recommendation from previous attendees."
Gill Lee
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service
"Really great course and really appreciate this being changed last minute to provide me with the content and experience needed for SSRS reporting."
Lauren Szarvas
Bedfordshire Police
"Another super course from the Wise Owl team. The pace and content were good and there wasn't any dead time. As an intro course I now have enough information to create meaningful reports and the manual is an excellent desk aid. I've used it several times this week! The pre course test was really worthwhile because my organisation's security is very tight. Having a work around to fall back on was worth sorting before the date. Purely because I've used Wise Owl for SQL training and rate the trainers. The team really do know their stuff and train from a position of knowledge."
Clare Hill
Hertfordshire Constabulary
"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 was really friendly and delivered the course at a good pace. Really easy to follow and gave a good insight as to what can be done in Power BI."
Charlotte Carroll
Merseyside Fire & Rescue Authority
