Excel Training Courses

This practical, hands-on course is designed for Excel users who want to prepare their data effectively for use in Power BI Desktop. Delegates will learn how to structure, clean, and optimise Excel data so it can be imported, modelled, and visualised seamlessly in Power BI. By the end of the day, participants will understand the key differences between Excel and Power BI data handling, and will be confident in applying best practices that reduce errors, improve efficiency, and create a solid foundation for insightful reporting.

Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet program that can be used for storing, organising and manipulating data.

This Excel introductory course will enable delegates to gain a good general understanding of the main features of Microsoft Excel, giving them the ability to produce standard spreadsheets, create formulae and format and print spreadsheets.

In Microsoft Office Excel Level 1, delegates created, edited, formatted, and printed basic spreadsheets. This course will enable delegates to streamline repetitive tasks and display spreadsheet data in more visually effective ways. The target students for this course are students who desire to gain the skills necessary to create spreadsheets from scratch using more advanced functions and formulas, sort and filter data, analyse data and present data in visual and vibrant ways.

This course will benefit those who are already up to speed with Microsoft Excel but would now like to automate some common tasks and apply advanced analysis techniques to more complex data sets. This Excel course is aimed at anyone desiring to gain the skills necessary to create macros, audit and analyse worksheet data, create Excel PivotTables and Excel PivotCharts, use lookup tables and import and export data.

This outline below contains an overview of a wide range of features within Excel that when used together can be used to create interactive visual reports and dashboards. The course will show delegates how these features can be used individually to present data but can also be used in combination to make powerful and insightful reports.

The course content has been pulled from a mix of our Excel courses, some content will be recapped to ensure all delegates are at the same level as they are used in conjunction with each other to effectively present data and build reports.

This course is designed to introduce you to the Macro environment of Excel, it will provide you with the confidence to record macros in Excel and then be able to gain a better understanding of the code and make changes to it.

We even teach you some commands that cannot be recorded, such as how to show a message to the person who runs the macro.

It will not turn you into a fully-fledged programmer, but you will feel more confident in the Visual Basic Editor, and thus be able to explore more aspects of programming in Excel.

For example, if you record a macro before the course and you make a mistake in the recording, you invariably have to start the recording again. After this course you will be able to step through the code, decide what you wish to keep and what you wish to get rid of, then record an extra part and add it to the code you kept thus running all the code at once.

Important Note : An Excel Macro is created from lines of code of Visual Basic for Applications. These lines of code are stored in a collection called a 'Macro' or a 'Procedure'. It all depends on which angle you are coming from. If you're a programmer, you call these lines of code a Procedure; if you are an advanced user of Excel you call these lines of code a Macro.

This course is split into 3 main areas:

1. Get and Transform (Power Query)

2. Power Pivot - Data Models and DAX calculations

3. Dashboard Creation with Pivot Tables, Charts and Slicers

It is aimed at users who want to analyse data from multiple sources and want to create effective data dashboards.

This course is aimed at those people who find they have reached their limit with the menu items of Excel and need to modify Excel to be better suited to their environment, by creating their own functions and procedures.
