Excel Spreadsheets - Level 2 - Online Courses - Adult Learning

This course is for adults who want to further their skills of using Microsoft Excel and spreadsheets. You will already have some basic computer and Excel skills but learn further skills needed to create more detailed spreadsheets as well as formulas and data analysis.
The course is friendly and practical and is suitable for people who have not used Excel to its full extent before.
By the end of the course, you will feel a lot more confident using Excel and the further tools it offers.
You will complete a portfolio within the sessions which will be submitted to gain a qualification and a certificate.

Learning outcomes

Entry requirements:
You should have basic computer skills such as using a mouse and keyboard. You should have used Excel a little bit before, even if it was some time ago.
