Microsoft Excel - From Excel Beginner to Excel Expert

Just imagine what it would feel like if using Excel was effortless – if you could create charts, functions, and analyse data with ease. Becoming an Excel expert isn’t about learning what every button and every formula does – it’s about learning methods you can use over and over again to effortlessly clean, enrich and analyse data.

I bet your a bit like me, you’ve tried learning through trial and error, but it takes a long time and involves a lot of mistakes along the way! I’ve been using Excel for over 15 years and there’s still a few functions I’ve never used. The good news is that you can become an Excel expert in just a few hours by learning the right tools and approaches to use. How would it feel to have those skills on your resume and at your next job interview?

So, you want to become an Excel expert but you don’t want to overwhelm yourself with stuff you’re never going to use and you need the skills for your job, or the next job you hope to get. As I see it, you have three options. First, you could take a classroom based course and try to learn it all in a day, but from experience I know many people who have just been overwhelmed with the amount of information and the pace of learning. Second, you could do absolutely nothing, stay exactly where you are right now with your Excel skills. Or third, you could give this a try, work it alongside your current job and be genuinely good at Excel within a week or two.

“Love the tips. Best practices quite relevant and to be kept in mind. Also, there are quizzes to test your understanding of the previous lessons as well as links to the lectures for the answers that you missed. I love this course. Highly recommended!”

– Mary J. de Guzman

“This is a really great course. He started at what I would definitely consider an intermediate Excel level–and I even learned some things during that part–and then took us well into advanced Excel, as promised. Martyn was also very responsive, answering in-depth questions I had, even when they were beyond the scope of the course.”

– Randy Crane

“Thoroughly enjoyed the course as it was very well paced. Bite-sized yet providing clear concise detailed instructions that I could follow the activities in a separate local spreadsheet and learn by doing. Good clarity in speech and good examples help. Martyn also reverts back quickly if you have a question or suggestion.”

– Kaushal Vyas
