Changing Job Market:  Surprisingly, we are frequently contacted by those paying for Excel training out of pocket.  They do so that they can compete in this highly competitive job market.

 

We have a special training program for individuals.  Non-corporate approach. Not to mention a highly affordable rate.

 

Example of what you can do with intermediate Excel programming skills ( Microsoft Excel Dashboard ):

Microsoft Excel Dashboards are a powerful presentation. Pivot Tables, Pivot Charts, and Slicers are Intermediate Excel Programming Skills.

 

 

Excel Trainer Note:  The Excel functions we teach you in our Intermediate Excel training are the most advanced and powerful functions in Excel.  The same functions we use in Advanced Excel training.  But in Advanced Excel training, we spend much more time focused on combining two or more advanced functions, into one function.

 

 

 

Learn only what you need to learn

As such, in our one-on-one intermediate Excel training, you will learn the most advanced functions in Excel today, such as Filter, Unique, SortBy, and ChooseCols.  There is no faster way to learn Excel.

You only need to learn 15-20 of the advanced Excel functions.  Many are a waste of time. XLookup, SumIfs, TextJoin, Filter, Unique, VStack, Sequence, not too many more are all you need to know, for most intermediate Excel programmers.

Be sure to learn the right 15-20 Excel functions.

Examples of what you can do after you take our Intermediate Excel Training:

Here are examples of some of the things you will be able to do in Excel.  From removing duplicates to conditional sums.

 

 

How to Remove Duplicates in Excel – Example

In the past, removing duplicates from a dataset was a challenge.  Now you can do it with the click of a button.  ( 5 Ways to Remove Duplicates in Excel )

Simply select the range of cells that contains the duplicate records.  Click the Remove Duplicates button.  Make your selection, hit enter, and you are done.

Image of Remove Duplicates button being used in Excel. Very useful.


This is so useful, you will want to make sure you learn how to remove duplicates in Excel using the Remove Duplicates button..

 

 


 

How to Get Unique Records – Example

Getting a list of Unique records using the Unique Function is similar to using the Remove Duplicates button, as each result in the same dataset.  But the Remove Duplicates button will actually delete duplicate records from the worksheet.

With the Unique Function, you are not deleting data, rather you are filtering off the duplicate records.  The Dynamic Array Unique Function returns an in-memory result set.

The Unique Function can be combined with other Excel functions to build more powerful formulas.  This is a function every intermediate Excel programmer should know.

 

Experts Note:  The Unique Function will return either an array of unique records, or you an opt for an array of Distinct records.  Using this method will not result in deleted records.  This function is reading the data table, not changing it.

 

Example of Unique Function and its power. If you want to be strong in Excel, you will need to use this. Such a huge function. I use it daily.


One of the most powerful functions in Excel is the Unique Function. Getting a Unique List is the same as Removing Duplicates. Is it not?

 

 

 

How to Get Distinct Records via Unique Function – Example

We know what the Unique Function can do, when dealing with duplicates.  But did you know that the Unique Function can also provide a list of Distinct Records?

Many of the Dynamic Array Functions have a variety of ways to use them.  Programmers are really just beginning to scratch the surface of what Spill Arrays functions can do.

 


The Unique Function will give a list of Distinct Records.

 

 

 


 

 

How to Dynamically Populate an Excel Validation Control – Example

Here you will want to combine 2-4 of Excel’s Dynamic Array Functions into one advanced function.  In our example we used four dynamic array functions, pulling data from a specific column of a data range.

We then Filter down the list, Sort it, and finally take a unique result set.  You could mix up the order here somewhat.  But the result is a list of states you want to show in your Validation control.

( Users Love Excel Validation Controls )

Add the #, and Excel changes! Add it to a Validation Control, referencing the first Spill cell, and the Validation Control is referencing a Dynamic list. Forget about Offset/CountA.

 

Experts Note:  This is a dynamic list.  Each time a new state is added to the data range, or each time a state is removed from the range, the list will instantly change.  This way there is no need to maintain a hardcoded list to populate your Validation Controls.

No need to use the Offset/CountA method to create a Dynamic Named Range.  Just do this.  This is taking intermediate Excel training and applying it at the advanced level.

 

Image showing the combination of four new dynamic array functions into one complex Excel formula. Uses this Dynamic list to populate a Validation Control. These are advanced Excel skills. We teach them in our intermediate Excel training.


Learning what a function does, how it works, is one thing. Knowing how to integrate that function, with other advanced functions, now that is advanced Excel training.

How to use FlashFill in Place of Traditional Formulas – Example

What, you can use FlashFill to do what formulas such as TextJoin, TextBefore, Concatenate, etc., would be used for?  Yes, that is what I am saying.

Why would you want to do that?  Well, if you do not know which formulas to use to say combine a person’s first name and last name, in one cell, you can just use FlashFill.

In the not too distant past, people would combine several text functions such s left, right, mid, with other functions, to manipulate text.  Then came along TextJoin, SplitText, TextBefore, etc., and it was much simpler.  But with FlashFill, you can do many of the same things, WITHOUT Excel formulas.

This is what we will teach you.  This is what you want to learn.  Best practices.  Best ways to do things.  This is clearly the best way to learn Excel.
