The course was defiantly more than I expected. It not only strengthened what I did know about Excel but it showed me several options that I was not using or haven't found. I would highly recommend it.

I can tell you this course is great for both refresher and for those just starting out to learn excel. I have been using excel for a while and attended courses on Data analytics but this stands out.

It's all in the title. Covers important basics throughout and while I knew a lot of things already, it was covering that stuff I didn't know in order to create a more solid baseline for continued study.
