"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
"What a fantastic trainer. SO calm and reassuring. He also made the content really interesting. It was a perfect level for me with limited data software knowledge"
Ben Scott
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"Our trainer was awesome. He very clearly knows his subject inside out, and this was evident in his delivery. He wasn't phased by anything and could look at my colleague's code and know exactly what was going on. He was especially good at helping us with our own code, and giving us a gentle nudge in the right direction. Overall, I would rate this course 11/10. It delivered exactly what was promised and more. I would have struggled to get budget for both Basic and Advanced, so this course was spot on the money (literally)."
Josh Richards
Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Service
"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
"Our trainer was patient and friendly and made what seemed like another language make sense!"
Chantelle Hare
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service
"Another excellent course delivered by Wise Owl. Thank you. Wise Owl content is always delivered in a manner that enthuses and motivates; making often complicated subjects much easier to decipher and digest. I will be using Wise Owl again."
Christopher Evans
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"Great trainer, really knowledgeable helpful and a lovely venue in London. Being able to attend despite being the only one on the course was great too! I think the videos that you provide online are brilliant and help to increase awareness of this training. "
Lauren Szarvas
Bedfordshire Police
"Our trainer led the course at a suitable pace, explaining each section of the manual in full detail and answered any questions that were raised. His explanations were aimed at the right level for new users and I didn't feel that I wasn't following the course at any time. An excellent trainer and I would recommend the course to anyone wishing to learn Power BI. Thank you!"
Diane Smith
Merseyside Resilience Forum
"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
"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
"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
"The trainer was informative and happy to deviate into case studies to suit our environment, if needed. Enjoyed the course."
Stewart Griffiths
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"The way the course content was delivered was excellent, the pace allowed you to absorb what was going on as you were doing it. Thank you."
Simon Thomas
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"The presentation was very clear and our tutor was an excellent speaker and trainer."
Ping Zang
Avon 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
"Venue was awesome - loved to get out of the house and into London for a couple of days. The trainer was really good as well, very knowledgeable and taught us in a way that will cement the work we did in our heads. Wished it had been a week long course! I want to have a good working knowledge of SQL, I will be looking into getting on other courses by yourselves most notably the excel intermediate course and SQL advanced course in the coming months."
David Bryan
Cambridgeshire Constabulary
"I enjoyed the course and the trainer knows his stuff. "
Adam Thomas
Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust
"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
"Your price (lower than an alternative), previous experience of your training and your friendly approachable nature. The fact we got answers to all the questions we asked about the course within an hour of asking them also helped make our mind up."
David Broomfield
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service
"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."
