Excel Tips, Tricks and Timesavers Course Outline

*** WARNING: High Volume Class, Sign Up Early ***
Excel is our most popular series classes. A green flag beside a date on the right means that a session has met the minimum enrollment levels and is running. However, it is common for dates for this course to fill several weeks in advance. Even if a date has a green flag, you might not be able to get into that session if it is full. To avoid disappointment, it is best to register for this class at least three weeks in advance.

Overview
This one-day class offers tips, tricks and timesavers that will help you get the most from Excel. It is an easy quick-paced class that will touch on most of the popular Excel features and how to access them efficiently.

Version Note
While this class is being taught using the 2016 version of the Excel software, almost all topics will be applicable to users of Excel 2013.

Target Student
