"Course content was great, clear and easy to follow. A great instructor who kept the course engaging and moved at a good pace, with some good jokes cracked too."
Aurelia Heyworth

"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
"The course was perfect, really learned a lot for the two days. Trainer was very flexible and knowledgeable about good practice SQL."
Minesh Gokal
PEI Group
"The tutor was really good at making sure the people with more experience didn't get bored whilst going at a pace slow enough for the beginners. The course material is clear and structured."
Sam Wareham
Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS FT
"The training worked perfectly! I had experienced the Power BI training in person but to have an online option that works so well, I can only thank you."
Andy Derbyshire
APSE Manchester
"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
"Our trainer was engaging and he didn’t assume any knowledge, which was helpful because we were able to learn the correct way of doing things from the beginning. I liked how flexible with time the course was, to give us regular breaks to make sure we stayed alert and enough time to do exercises and ask questions. I also liked the set up of the course with the movies/music databases because it was easy to understand but still relatable to what I would need to do in my day-to-day role."
Alysha Aitken

"Lots of insights and useful tips in this course! A great instructor, very clear and to the point!"
Guillaume Riguidel

"Thank you so much for having me on the course. I really enjoyed it and I am sure that it will be of real benefit to my work. The trainer was great, he explained the course with patience and clarity. I cannot wait to come back for more learning with the team at Wise Owl!"
Sharlene Nair

"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)
"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)
"I thoroughly enjoyed the advanced sql course. I had attended the basic sql course in October and this course was a great continuation on the topics learnt. I picked up lots of new and useful skills that I will be able to transfer over into my daily work, which has drastically improved since the basic course. My trainer was superb also, extremely knowledgeable on every topic covered and his passion really came through. He answered all the questions we asked over the 2 days with great insight and knowledge and was really helpful over the duration of the course. I have really enjoyed both courses and would definitely recommend Wise Owl to anyone who requires training in the future."
Cameron Daulby
Ifor Williams Trailers Ltd
"A fantastic trainer and I'm really pleased I asked for this course - it was exactly what I wanted and I have already used the new knowledge to help with multiple queries that I've been struggling with, since I joined 1.5 years ago! As always, the supporting material is great."
Alex Walker
MPM Products
"An excellent trainer, efficient and knowledgeable. If someone dropped from the session he'd get them up to speed quickly and without disrupting the flow of the course. The course was well designed and the exercises helped to cement lessons. I also have the physical course manual and exercises, which will be a great resource for me going forward."
Angus Wood
Liberty Speciality Markets / Global
"An excellent trainer who explained everything in a very engaging way. I was very unconfident with joins and aggregate functions before the course but now feel competent with them thanks to him."
Thomas Crozier
Home Office
"A really helpful course, the content was just right in terms of a mix of more simple and more advanced tasks. I learned loads of new stuff. Our trainer was great and I'd recommend the company again."
Jenny Bowman
University of Lincoln
"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
"I took the Intro to SQL course and highly recommend it. Everything was organized and thoughtful from pre-course to the actual training. Our trainer was really good, knowledgeable, and friendly. As someone with no background in SQL, I was worried that I might not be able to go with the pace of training but our trainer made sure that everyone was getting along with the topics. Learned a lot and I'm excited to apply it all. Interested to learn more too!"
John Austria
Financial Times
"Our trainer was great, super engaging, clear and provided a thorough run through of everything."
