  1. You'll be Business Intelligence certified in just 6 days. With us, you’ll be Business Intelligence trained in record time
  2. Our Business Intelligence course is all-inclusive. A one-off fee covers all course materials, exams, accommodation and meals. No hidden extras
  3. Pass Business Intelligence first time or train again for free. This is our guarantee. We're sure you'll pass your Business Intelligence course first time. But if you don’t, come back within a year, and only pay for accommodation and exams. Everything else is free

As well as winning many more awards, we’ve trained and certified 30,000 professionals, and we’re partners with all of the big names in the business
  7. You'll do more than study Business Intelligence courseware. We use practical exercises to make sure you can apply your new knowledge to the work environment. Our instructors use demonstrations and real-world experience to keep the day interesting and engaging
