Course Content

• Getting Started. In this section, you’ll learn easy techniques      that enable you to select Cells, groups of Cells (called Ranges), and      nonadjacent cells.

• Entering data. The first steps to creating a useful worksheet      is entering data. By entering data, you are inputting the information that      you want Excel to display, calculate, and store.

• Creating Simple Formulas. Formulas are nothing to be intimidated by.      They are mostly simple instructions to Excel to make some sort of      calculation that can then be applied as often as you need it. Here, we      take you through some of the basic commands.

• Revision exercises. Some simple exercises to help you practise      what you have learned so far. With the tutor on hand too help when you are      stuck.

• Working with Functions. Functions are simply formulas that Excel has      already prepared for you. They save typing - and brainpower! We show you      how to access and use them.

• Simple formatting options.  We      take you through some simple formatting tricks that can help make your      worksheets look and perform better.

• Build you first spreadsheet. We pull together your new learning to build      a simple spreadsheet.  A step by      step, tutor led session, using data that we supply.
