"A really great teacher."
Orla Emberson
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"An excellent trainer, really patient, kept the course flowing at a pace suitable for all participants."
Claire Payton
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"Amazing courses! Great trainer, pace and content. I literally couldn't have asked for better introductions to SQL and Power BI. Plus I have some many great resources to refer back to in the future :) Thank you!"
Simone Capp
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"I had a great time, thank you so much for a fab course!"
Holly Tyers
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"Excellent course. Having used excel for many years, there were still some tips and best practice that had passed me by, having now learnt these they will save me time in the future. The tutor was great at explaining the technical terms and made things click (for example the text tip when you type a formula that shows you which part of the formula you are on). Thank you!"
Jody Gaisford
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"The course was well structured, with each section helpfully building on the contents of the previous. The trainer was very clear with his explanations and paced the course well. I was fortunate enough to be the only person on the course, so was able to ask plenty of questions and always received helpful and informative answers."
Ollie Jacob
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"Good friendly energetic trainer. Good flow of content kept interest."
Robert Blincoe
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"The course content was great. Despite having a fair bit of practice in SQL I learnt a lot about how the language actually works, as well as very useful shortcuts and new syntax. A great teacher, very knowledgeable of the subject and seems to genuinely enjoy delivering the session - possibly the best work training I've attended! "
Jamie Yeo
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"A really good instructor, very helpful and willing to go the extra mile."
Mitch Chambers
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"A very good and experienced trainer who was very good at explaining SQL concepts clearly and succinctly to allow us to understand the concepts quickly."
Toby Lawrence
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"Our trainer ensured that we all stayed with him throughout and his pace and willingness to make DAX less like a foreign language made it a very enjoyable course. I cannot wait to put what we learnt into practice. Thank you! We had previously done the Intro to SQL and PBI courses which were also very well received - so it was a no-brainer to come back!"
Anthony Swales
Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman
"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
Home Office
"Our trainer is great at teaching this course. Very powerful."
Mitch Chambers
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"Our trainer made the course very accessible, really appreciated his enthusiasm!"
Conor Maloney
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"A really nice trainer who made the course really accommodating. A really worthwhile course."
Holly Keay
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"I absolutely loved the course and attending it has given me a lot of food for thought in how I can implement the use within my team. The trainer was superb and communicated clearly the 'how' and 'why' you'd do things in a certain way, looking out for common errors along the way. I needed to know about how to import data into SQL, which wasn't part of the course content, but the trainer was very accommodating by staying behind with me for 10 minutes to show me how I'd do this, which was very much appreciated. I am inexperienced when it comes to using databases and writing script/code, however I had heard about the benefits of using SQL as a tool and wanted to upskill. Thank you for the course - I hope to come on another sometime soon!"
Katherine Wellock
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"Lovely and enthusiastic trainer who remained upbeat and engaging throughout."
Louisa Martin
Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC)
"Really enjoyed the course. A brilliant trainer, who answered any and all questions and really brought the content to life."
Rebecca Kaur
Government Internal Audit Agency (GIAA)
"This course was pitched just right for our skill levels. Pacing and content were spot on. Our trainer was approachable and fielded all of our daft questions! The venue was located perfectly for the station. Materials provided in support of the course were really good and I'll keep them as reference. I can't think of anything that I would have liked to see changed. We chose this particular course as we were wanting to do a classroom based one (and Manchester was an ideal location) and we have been with Wise Owl before."
Nathan Cain
