Course Overview

Microsoft Excel is a helpful and powerful program for data analysis and documentation. It is a program, which contains columns and rows, where each intersection of a column and a row is a “cell.” Each cell contains one point of data or one piece of information. By organizing the information in this way, you can make information easier to find, and automatically draw information from changing data. You'll learn all the basics of opening an Excel document, creating a spreadsheet from scratch, writing formulas and saving your document to your computer. In this course, you'll quickly become comfortable using the entire Excel dashboard including its tabs, ribbon and tools. Great for beginners to intermediate Excel users.

Participant Reviews

“My tutor was friendly and helpful. I managed to get through a lot of information and learn many Excel skills. It was an intense three hours, but I think it will be helpful for my work.

My one bit of feedback for improvement might be that you could have some of the example tables already on the computer, so the student just has to manipulate the info and not actually type in the cells as well

But it was great! Thanks! I might enrol in some of your other courses.”
