A short note to thank you for the training sessions this week. The content and delivery was excellent and I’ve personally picked up on some additional tips and tricks which will certainly help me with my application development. I know the rest of the group have been equally impressed. I’ll certainly be recommending and encouraging some on-prem training to our Learning and Development folks as well as other colleagues who are looking to get into BI.
