What People Are Saying:
“It's informative & detailed enough without being overly drawn out. The presenter has given a thorough introduction to Excel for the prescribed audience. Although I am far beyond the audience level targeted by this course, from this position, I can appreciate better the thoroughness and layout. Well done.” -Christopher Cole
“Generally, I wouldn't find this type of course all that interesting. However, I have found in my current job search that it is a necessary part of my tech skill set in which to become proficient. So, I'm very appreciative that courses like this are offered, and taught by an extremely knowledgeable instructor, who explains lessons clearly and offers opportunities to practice the theme which he has just gone over. He was thorough, and not in the least bit condescending, which I can't say for instructors I have had in the past. So, thank you.” -Mary Price
“The instructor goes slow, covers everything (even how to save, print, etc) and gives relevant examples. Great course for someone who has never used excel before or for people who want to make sure they know how to use every feature. Well worth the money as you will become more productive and efficient with Excel.” -Leigh Ann Cross
