Spreadsheet (Excel) Skills for Finance

Next course: 13th September 2012, Central London

Enhance your skills in excel

• Are you a finance professional?
• Do you require excel skills for your job?
• Want to improve your excel efficiency?
• Need to enhance your spreadsheet skills?
• Picked up excel in passing without training?

Our typical delegates are professionals working in finance who use excel on a daily basis. Most people pick up excel in passing, have ‘learnt on the on the job’ & now require training.
 
Many have picked up poor habits because they have never been taught how to use excel efficiently and maximise its potential.

Spreadsheets are fantastic business tools and we hardly utilise their potential. This course aims to ‘get you up to speed’ and give you an insight into excel’s true potential.

Our course demonstrates best practice spreadsheet techniques, to avoid the expensive mistakes which are made by many organisations.

We focus specifically on the tools required by finance professionals, in particular accountants.

Course delivery

We take an open friendly and enthusiastic approach to learning with spreadsheets. We believe that people learn more effectively when they are enjoying themselves. We make excel interesting for you.

We love questions and welcome as many as possible. We encourage an open atmosphere which in our experience accelerates the learning process.

We always use lots of exercises and real life examples in our training as we believe this really helps our clients to understand concepts. We find that people only really learn when they test their understanding through practice.
