Mastering Microsoft Excel

Can you really "master" Microsoft Excel in just 2 days of training? You bet you can! This is Excel training at its most efficient and effective. You will learn how to create spreadsheets; input data; perform mathematical calculations; develop workbooks; edit cells; and use formulas, functions, Wizards, and much more — all under the watchful eye of your expert trainer.

This fast-paced, intensive journey through Excel's exciting capabilities — combining lectures, trainer demonstrations, and group discussions — will develop your skills like no other training seminar.

You can learn more in less time with our dynamic hands-off teaching approach. You'll be able to concentrate and learn without being slowed down by keyboarding or having to wait for the entire group to catch up. (And doesn't a day away from the computer screen sound great?) Every key point and significant Excel operation will be displayed on a large, viewer-friendly screen. Once you've returned to the office, you can try everything you've learned at your own speed and convenience with the techniques summarized in your complimentary workbook.

You could spend 3 days, 4 days — even a week — attending a Microsoft Excel training course of this caliber ...

But why would you? This course is carefully designed to deliver the most information in the least amount of time. Through research, interviews, and client input, we've found that a 2-day seminar is optimal for this type of material — long enough to learn everything you need, yet short enough that your department or organization won't fall apart without you.

Our expert course designers have distilled the essentials of Excel from books, manuals, CDs, courses, IT experts, and of course, their own extensive personal experience. As a result, this training represents the "best of the best" — all of the Excel knowledge you need and none of the extraneous elements you don't.
