Bite-sized Conditional Formats and Data Validation course dates

The table below lists the Bite-sized Conditional Formats and Data Validation courses that we currently have scheduled (click on one of the tabs to filter the list).

We don't currently have any Bite-sized Formats / Validation courses scheduled. We may consider adding dates - it's always worth asking.

Alternatively, if you have a handful of like-minded people in your organisation, you could consider booking your own bespoke Bite-sized Formats / Validation course, whereby you get to pick the dates, training delivery method and venue!

We don't currently have any Bite-sized Formats / Validation courses scheduled in our London training centre. We may consider adding dates - it's always worth asking.

We don't currently have any Bite-sized Formats / Validation courses scheduled in our Manchester training centre. We may consider adding dates - it's always worth asking.

We don't currently have any online Bite-sized Formats / Validation courses scheduled. We may consider adding dates - it's always worth asking.

About half of our courses are created bespoke for a single organisation, and either delivered onsite (usually somewhere in the UK, but we're willing to travel!) or online. For onsite courses we will usually provide and set up the necessary computers free of charge.

There are four main reasons why you might want to book tailored training like this:

If you have 3 or more people, organising custom training will probably be cheaper than booking people individually onto a scheduled course.
You'll be able to choose the content of any training, and be able to pause it for discussions on how you'll use software internally, or ask to take digressions.
You may not be able to travel to our venues, so it might be easier to ask us to travel to you.
You may not be able to make the dates of our published scheduled courses, and want to be able to choose when your training takes place.

If you'd like a quote for how much a tailored course would cost please let us know what you'd like to achieve and we'll get back to you (normally within half a working day).

What other people have said about our Excel training

Here are some comments we've received about our Excel training . You can see all of our 386 reviews here. We would like to sincerely thank the clients whose names are shown below for kindly agreeing to let us share their feedback.

"The trainer was fabulous, and explained everything thoroughly."

Vicky Morris

AA Projects Ltd / Drees & Sommer UK Ltd

"An excellent trainer who covered the content in an engaging fashion and ensured everyone was able to understand and use the concepts in the manual. The online format also worked very well, which allowed for easy and efficient learning."

Kane Harper

Sellafield Ltd

"The course contained sufficient content for a good introduction to VBA, was well organised (e.g. with sending out training manuals and organising pre-course checks) and came with high quality training materials. Our trainer was extremely knowledgeable, and created an encouraging environment for delegates to share ideas and ask questions. He also added in lots of "tips and tricks", which meant everyone learnt a lot, even if they had some degree of familiarity with VBA going in. Wise Owl had delivered other online trainings to Sellafield staff, so came recommended by colleagues."

Alex Cunningham

Sellafield Ltd

"The trainer was excellent, such a lovely man who made the course engaging."

Linda Holland

Mitsubishi Electric UK

"Excellent Course. Trainer was eloquent and explained subject matter very well and was also very patient."

Anna Kulpa

Landauer Group

"I thoroughly enjoyed the course. I found the trainer to be very informative and helpful throughout the entire course. I would thoroughly recommend your company should further training courses of this nature be required. The course was conducted at a pace that suited the entire group, so that even the slower members were able to get the most out of the training session."

About this Bite-sized Conditional Formats and Data Validation course

Click on one of the tabs below to see the given information about this Excel course.

This course covers two things. One is applying conditional formatting to ranges of cells:

One of the many effects that you can achieve using conditional formatting.

The other is applying data validation to cells:

The sort of message you can get to appear if someone doesn't type the right thing into your cells.

You should already be comfortable with the basics of Excel to attend this course.

Pre-requisites

You shouldn't attend this course unless you're comfortable using the basics of Excel, including creating formulae and moving round a worksheet.

What you'll need to bring

If you book on a classroom course, the only thing you need to bring to the course is ... yourself! We even provide a notepad and a suprisingly nice pen for you to take notes with.

For online training you'll need two things:

A good internet connection (otherwise you'll have a frustrating time); and
A second screen (a requirement, not a nice-to-have!)

You can see full details of our online course requirements here.

For classroom training, you won't need a computer - we (obviously) will provide that. However, you're welcome to use your own laptop if you prefer, providing that you have the correct software installed.

For online training you will need a computer, but you won't need to have any software installed. This is because you'll use Windows Remote Desktop to connect to our computers using our whizzy Wordsworth online training system, and these computers will have all of the necessary files and software installed.

When you book a place

If you book a place on one of our courses:

For classroom courses we will send out a joining email. That's it!
For online courses we will get in touch to organise a half-hour pre-course check to iron out any connection problems before the course (rather than during it). We will also ask you whether you want to receive a printed copy of the course manual (and post this to you if you do).

Whatever type of course you book, we will also send you out a reminder a few days before the course is due to take place - not that (we hope) you'll have forgotten!

After the course

After the course finishes you'll receive a digital certificate proving your attendance (we will gladly send a paper copy on request also).

We don't have any formal arrangement for answering questions after the course, but if you get stuck on something and email your trainer they should (and nearly always do!) respond as quickly as their training schedule allows.
