Webinar Overview:

In this course, you will gain an in-depth understanding of how to use Excel to perform calculations and create charts. The course covers the fundamentals and goes beyond, covering the function palette, VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, net workdays, cell and range names, conditional formatting, Sparklines, protecting data, and saving a chart as a template. Upon successful completion of this two-part course, you will be able to:

  • Find and use intermediate functions.
  • Streamline formulas using cell and range names.
  • Use Sparklines in addition to charts to create dynamic visual displays of data.
  • Protect formulas and general cell data from editing.
  • Use special tools such as cell comments and notes.

A quick-reference guide will also be provided that includes highlights of the course content, as well as additional tips and tricks. Classes will be small to ensure interactive, personalized instruction.
