About the Course

This 2-hour long project-based course is an introduction to spreadsheets. We’ll be using Google Sheets in this project, which is the free spreadsheet program offered by Google. With that said, most of the concepts that you will learn in this project will be applicable to other spreadsheet programs, such as Microsoft Excel. We will cover the following concepts in a hands-on manner: - Basic data entry, formatting and calculations - Relative and absolute cell references - Basic functions: concatenate, split, sum, average, median, min, max, count, counta - Advanced functions: vlookup, if, and, or, iferror, countif, countifs, averageif, averageifs, sumif, sumifs - Dealing with error messages - Conditional formatting - Filtering and sorting - Basic charts to visualize our data We will end the project by applying these concepts and create a basic spreadsheet model that helps us analyze household expenses. Note: If you don't have a Google account, you will need to create one to be able to complete the content....

This is a succinct practical course on working proficiently in Google Sheets, a program that I think beats offline spreadsheet applications in terms of the potential for simultaneous collaborative work. A highly recommend this Guided Project for those using spreadsheet applications routinely as part of their work/profession.

This course is absolutely perfect for beginners who want to learn and master the fundamentals of spreadsheets. The split screen approach really gives an edge to this course where we could actually practise without minimising the course window. Overall, the instructor and the course was really engaging and informative.

The course was very detailed. I learned a lot from this exercise. I did not even know Google Sheets was capable of doing this much in terms of manipulating data and presenting it. I will definitely be practicing some of the formulas and formatting techniques going forward.

A very good, hands-on, guided introduction to Google Sheets. It seems to be fairly comprehensive for those who attempt all the exercises prior to receiving the guided instructions whenever given the chance to do so.

It was easy to follow and very useful for basic learning. Would be extra good if they added tutorials on how to work on pivot tables :-) But generally recommended!
