One of the great things about IT training is that you (necessarily) become an expert in your field, and nowhere is this truer than for Excel. What this means is that for any problem we can decide the best way to solve it, choosing from the full range of Excel tools.
Part of Excel | Notes |
---|---|
Basic Excel | Our courses cover the full range of Excel features (if it's in Excel, we know about it!). |
Excel formulae | We're gurus in everything from the humble IF function to exotic functions like INDIRECT and SUMPRODUCT. |
The new functions | Many existing Excel users aren't aware how new functions like UNIQUE, TRIM and XLOOKUP (to pick just 3) can make their lives much easier. |
Power Query | Surprisingly many clients aren't aware that you can extract, transform and load data in Excel using this tool (which is also part of Power BI Desktop). |
VBA | We've been teaching (and building systems in) VBA for longer than we care to mention, although try to avoid over-using it within Excel. |
Office Scripts | Microsoft are trying to push this alternative Excel programming language - we're one of the few companies running courses in it. |
Alternatives to Excel | Because we've been exposed to so many other software applications we will be in an excellent position to ask the question: is Excel the right tool for this (and if not, what is)? |
So if you want to talk through your Excel problem with an unusually well-informed third party, why not either book a consultancy session online (for smaller questons) or send us an outline of what you're trying to create (for larger ones).
One other nice thing about our Excel consultancy is that as a training company we're happy not just to solve your problems, but also to then show you how we did it!
