The Excel Instructor Makes the Difference

When it comes to personalized Excel training, the skill of the instructor matters very much.  You want someone who can meet you where you are in terms of what you know, and what you need to know.  One that is patient, one that knows how to teach, one that knows Excel inside and out.  And one that can go slow when needed.

• You need an Excel trainer that can sense when you are learning, when you are frustrated.
• One that knows when to back up a bit, and to review a topic.  One that focuses on you and your learning experience.
• You need an Excel trainer that can answer all of your questions, not one that says, “Let me research that.”
  • Hence, work with an Excel MVP, they know pretty much everything in Excel.

 

Excel and Access was a great pick for our excel training needs. The training class was very easy to follow and Bob our instructor was very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend and will be going back to them for future training needs.  -John Gebbia

 

Work with the Nation’s Top Excel Trainers

In our opinion it is best to hire an Excel trainer that has been programming in Excel for 20 or more years.  It is best to work with a trainer that is also a programmer.   Working with a top Excel experts is simply the best way to learn Microsoft Excel.

Our Trainers:  Our clients have worked with many Microsoft Excel MVP’s over the past 15-years.  Many of our clients have worked with Dennis Taylor of Lynda.Com and LinkedIn Learning.  Both are Top Tier Excel experts.

The Training Agenda Matters

There are over 500 Functions in Excel.  Of those, how many do you really need to learn?  How many will you actually use?  And how many should you use?

Don’t learn all 500.  Instead learn the 15-20 most powerful and most useful ones such as the XLookup and SumIfs Functions.

For an intermediate user, that may be 10-15, maybe 20 functions?  Initially, not many more than that.

There are Pivot Tables, Dashboards, Charts and Graphs, to learn.

Conditional Formatting, PasteSpecial Values, Remove Duplicates, AutoFilter, FlashFill, and Validation Controls to learn.

What you learn depends on your unique set of skills and needs.  As such, we always build a 100% custom agenda before any training takes place.

Most open to the public Excel training classes are using a canned agenda of topics that have nothing to do with the work you will be doing.  As such, you spend a lot of time and money learning things you may never use.

 

We teach you want you need to learn for work, and nothing else.

We Offer Onsite and Remote Training Options

Need for us to come to you, no problem.  Prefer to conduct the training remotely, we do that all the time.  Which option works best for you works best for us.  We are here to assist you in the way you prefer.

Remote one-on-one Microsoft Excel training is quickly becoming the norm.  1) You don’t need to leave the house.  2) You don’t need to get dressed.  3) You don’t need to be in classes with other students.

 

Remote one-on-one Excel training is the most efficient way to learn Microsoft Excel.

 

You Don’t Need to be in a Class with Other Students
