What are Wise Owl shorts?▼

We've been publishing training videos on our website for some years now, and have built up quite a collection.

Each series of videos is designed to teach you a specific topic in a structured way, and has to fit into the context of the video training series to which it belongs.

For some time now, we've wanted the freedom to publish short one-off videos on specific topics, where those videos don't necessarily fit into a structured course. That's what our shorts are!

Wise Owl shorts tend to be a bit more informal than our training videos, and are nearly always (the clue's in the name!) quite a lot shorter.

What other free resources do you have online?▼

Here's a complete list of the free resources that you can access on this site:

Video shorts	This section of our website includes short videos which don't necessarily form part of a structured training course.

Training videos	At the time of writing we have 388 video tutorials on our website, although we're adding to the number all the time.

What paid training do you offer?▼

In between publishing oodles of free training resources as above, we somehow find time to fit in the day job (providing excellent business-to-business classroom and online training). We offer two main types of course:

Type of course	How it works
Scheduled courses	We publish a full range of courses open to the public (you can see a single-sheet PDF listing our current course schedule here). There will be a maximum of 6 people on any course. Our current venues are London and Manchester.
Tailored courses	If you have a group of up to 6 people who want training you can arrange a tailored course, either at your venue (in which case we will provide and set up the necessary equipment) or online.
