Microsoft Excel Beginner to Intermediate Course

Excel can help you organize, calculate, analyze, revise, update, and present your data in ways that will help the decision-makers in your organization steer you in the right direction. It will also make these tasks much easier for you to accomplish in less time. This course is intended for students who wish to gain an understanding of Microsoft Office Excel, which is necessary to create and work with electronic spreadsheets and then be able to extract information from your data. You want to know how to get Excel to provide the answers for you, and this course aims to help you do just that. This course will empower you to organize, analyze, and present data effectively.
