Course Overview

About this Course:

Want to do MORE with Microsoft Excel? Need to speed up your spreadsheet workflow

Spreadsheet software programs like Microsoft Excel, Apple Numbers and LibreOffice are more than just tables! Used properly, they're essential tools for helping you analyze and understand just about any kind of data. In this practical course suitable for beginner and intermediate-level spreadsheet users, we'll use a real-world example to learn more about spreadsheet navigation, formatting, functions, and simple data clean-up tools.

Whether you want to just get faster and feel more confident using spreadsheets, or just use spreadsheet software to better analyze your data, understanding spreadsheets makes it possible.

HOW IS THIS COURSE DIFFERENT?

My name is Kathleen, and I've been teaching technology to beginners under the moniker Robobunnyattack! since 2009. I believe that with the right approach, anyone can learn anything.

My goal in this course is to help you get better and faster at using ANY spreadsheet software. In this course, I'll demonstrate practical and time-saving steps using a real-world example. As we work together, I'll explain WHY and HOW things work the way they do, so you can learn more quickly and with more confidence.

As we sort through and analyze our spreadsheet data, we'll cover:

  • How to quickly navigate and format large data sets
  • How to use functions to answer specific questions about your data
  • Handy tricks for speeding up your workflow

And much more! I'll demonstrate each step using LibreOffice, a FREE and easy-to-use office productivity suite. You can apply these skills in your preferred spreadsheet software program, such as Microsoft Excel, Apple Numbers, or Google Spreadsheets.

By the end of this course, you'll be able to use Microsoft Excel or any other spreadsheet software application to analyze your data more efficiently and with more confidence!
