I liked the course and content. Something to improve is adding the Vlookup function. I think this is very important and it´s a basic feature to know in Excel.

I wish we had access to the data sheets that were shown at the beginning of each lesson so we could follow along. Also some lessons started with certain formula's already placed, I was very confused and had a hard time with those lessons.

Good overview of the key data analysis and introductory statistical analysis functions of MS Excel, covering the basic "built-in" functions. Re-enforced some of the MS Excel functions learned in a basic MS Excel training, focused on how to use/manipulate/analyze your data.
