About Excel Training Courses

I have teached Excel almost 10 years and will share gladly my Excel skills and enthusiasm about this program with you. I will come into your company to give Excel Courses or you can also choose to participate in the course with Zoom/Teams.

There are four Excel Courses you can choose and read more about: Excel Basic Course, Excel Advanced Course, Excel Macros Course and Excel Power Query Course.

All Excel courses are easy to follow for everyone. The same time I explain topics you can do excercises in your Excel. I have prepared special special Excel workbooks for that.

The training consists study days, e-course and personal counselling after training. Excel Basic Course, Excel Advanced Course and Excel Macros Course are 2-days courses (one training day takes 4,5 hour). Excel Power Query is one-day course.  The training day is information intensive, providing a wealth of new knowledge that Excel allows and how to use these opportunities in your work. Technical skills are being closed later by applying knowledge. This will help participants to have the Excel e-course distributed for an unlimited time.

When some participator or even all will take the course by Zoom/Teams then I will record training days. So if you miss some part or even whole one day you can watch it from video later. Also, all participators will have access to e-course where you can watch all topics as short and well-structured videos. You will have my personal support later  -so if you will have any question about Excel, I will answer by email or we can arrange personal Zoom meetings.

The average satisfaction with Excel training is over 9 on a 10-ball scale. Training is characterized by easy traceability and friendly-supportive atmosphere.
