Version Note

While this class is being taught using the 2016 version of the Excel software, almost all topics (except for a few new 2016-only chart types) will be applicable to users of Excel 2013.

Target Student

You already know Excel and have been working with it for years. In the past, other Excel users might have even turned to you for assistance. But with all of the new features in Excel, your skills have not kept pace. To regain your edge, you don’t need an introduction class or a class on a single topic. You need a fast-paced overview. A class that will bring you up to speed on the latest features of Excel across all topics such as charting, database features, pivot tables, multiple worksheets, advanced functions and even an introduction to Macros. If you have a good foundation in Excel and want to be a Power User, this class is for you!

Who Should NOT Take This Class

If you are a novice Excel user, this class is not for you. Because this class is fast-paced, the instructor will not be able to stop and help individuals who do not meet the prerequisites and who do not know the basics of Excel. If you are new to the product, you will need to first take the Introduction to Excel class and then gain several months of experience creating worksheets before registering for the Power User class.
