Notes on iPad With No Cloud?

[olds]

Sorry, not an Apple guy.
Can you take notes in an iPad (12.9) without using the Cloud?
We have employees wanting an iPad but IT doesn't allow cloud services.

Thanks.

(I know the Surface Pro defaults to the cloud but you can choose to save files on the device)

Yes, you can don't have to login to an iCloud account at all when setting it up.
