London Based Excel Training?

Hire me for your company and I'll soon train them all

Ahem

More seriously, the main point about training people on computer software is that they have to have a use for it day to day, or the skills will dry up from disuse. For example, at one point I was taught a fair chunk about Access, and whilst I could still sit down today and use it, I'd struggle for a fair while until I got back into the swing of things.


So that leads to the big question *why* are you trying to train people on Excel, is there a specific need for your employees to know how to use it, if so what are they going to do with it and that'll suggest what skillset you need to train.


Also, you might be plesantly surprised at what people can learn on their own, chuck 'em a few tasks in Excel and see who comes up with the answers on their own (for example making a flag to indicate whether a customer's balance is over their set credit limit, multiple solutions to that one)

What's wrong with the excel help file + google? That has taught me all I know about excel/vba and I am way more proficient than any other non-programmer that I know! (including some who have had training)

Excel Help + Google. I 100% agree, has done me fine, however, some people still claim to not understand it. I think that having some formal course they have to complete, where I know what they have covered will make it easier for everyone.

I know what you mean though, not had a single course in my life and I seem to do ok, however, I'm certain that even in a beginners class for Excel I'd learn a nugget or two - Can always learn all over the place
