Go from spreadsheet rookie to rockstar
This two-hour Excel crash course is the quickest way to go from spreadsheet rookie to rockstar. It's an accelerated 'learn-by-doing' approach: we'll solve a business problem by designing a model, collecting data and building a spreadsheet. Along the way, we'll cover the keyboard shortcuts, functions and insider 'best practices' to make your spreadsheets sizzle!

I learned a lot! It was a lot of information, which is good, but sometimes hard to follow because I use apple products. I wish that the creator would have told us the apple shortcuts along the way because they weren’t helpful at the end once we had already done everything manually with the mouse.
