Excel1 is the first in a series of five Excel courses designed to cover all the key aspects of Excel. The other individual sessions can be booked according to your interests and do not have to be taken in order although we do recommend Excel1 before the others.

We have the same courses Excel Video Courses on YouTube.

If you are interested in a MOS (Microsoft Office Specialist) qualification, then the five courses cover most of the MOS objectives in an introductory manner. There is an additional MOS Excel course to cover further MOS skills.

This course includes:

• What is a spreadsheet
• Storing data and formatting numbers

• Copying, auto-filling and moving cells
