Requirements

  • This foundational level course will give users with a basic knowledge of computers skills to survive in Excel and other spreadsheet programs. You will need to have access to a computer that has a spreadsheet program (preferably Excel) installed to complete the course activities.

Description

Excel is one of the most used software programs by businesses around the world. A basic knowledge of Excel is required for most jobs. This Excel foundational training provides new users with a basic to intermediate working knowledge of Excel. It also raises the skill level of self-taught Excel users by filling gaps in their working knowledge.

How You Will Benefit:

  • Get a firm understanding of the basics of working with Excel. How to find what you’re looking for, what can I do to speed up my processes , how can I not lose my data.

  • Understand how to work with data. How do you find data, import it, manipulate it, and export it for use in another program.

  • Become familiar with basic formatting and data analysis tools. Spreadsheets were developed to crunch numbers. While they have been used for many other things, analyzing data (crunching numbers) is their greatest asset.

  • Understand different ways of viewing and printing your data. If you have worked with Excel a lot you have probably wasted paper on a print. I’ll show you ways to work more efficiently without wasting so much paper and ink. 

  • Understand how to add graphics and objects to your spreadsheets. Pictures sell. That’s why advertising is so image rich. Once you crunched you data, you need to put it in a format other people understand. Charts, graphs, objects can help you convince other people to go with your conclusions.

Who this course is for:

  • New Excel users
  • People who use Excel as part of their daily activities at work or home
  • Excel users wanting to fill in gaps in their knowledge
