On-site Microsoft Excel and Copilot Courses in the United Kingdom

Our closed courses for Microsoft Excel are delivered as private classes for your learners offering more flexibility than off-the-peg courses and topics can often be tailored to meet your particular learning needs.

Excel is one of the most powerful and useful traditional Microsoft Office apps, but also often one with which people can struggle most, and that they find the most frustrating to work with. In fact, having staff who are confident and proficient with MS Excel doesn't only increase productivity and efficiency, it can even be good for morale.

Our trainers know that helping students to work effectively isn't just a business goal, it's also empowering. They aren't just educators, they're also software champions who promote enthusiastic adoption of Excel amongst their trainees. Before the start date they'll discuss training goals with you and the skill-sets that your team need most in order to get started working effectively with Excel.

Our courses can be taught on the following versions: Excel 365, 2024, 2021 and 2019.

Our Regional Microsoft Trainers Come to You

Virtual Microsoft Excel with Copilot Courses - UK & Beyond

If you'd rather that your team learns remotely, these small-group Copilot and Excel integration courses are also available as live virtual, interactive sessions from the comfort of your own office or workplace. These instructor-led courses are taught via MS Teams video conferencing.

Why choose virtual learning? As we've all become used to Online learning (and live virtual meetings) it is clear that this format has some advantages over traditional face-to-face learning.

If you're looking for local training, then you can't get closer to your doorstep than you can with virtual learning.

Our virtual learning Microsoft Excel courses cater for classes of up to 10 and your learners benefit from full and immersive interaction with the trainer just as if they were in the classroom with you, with engaging hands-on training via live video conferencing that's enriched by features such as live chat, private chat, and sharing screens and documents.

Courseware will be provided electronically.

Do you Record your Live Virtual Microsoft Excel Courses?

In our experience recording live Excel courses delivered via MS Teams isn't necessarily a great idea. Problems include recordings failing due to live Teams updates and also client bandwidth issues caused by streaming meetings and recording simultaneously. In order to avoid disruptions, we do not record our virtual Copilot Integeration with Excel courses.

We really ❤ helping UK organisations to master Microsoft Excel. Our only question is: Will it be yours?

Commercial and Corporate Excel Courses for the Public and Private Sectors

How Many People Should Attend Our Private Copilot and Excel Integration Course?

Whilst the number of people who attend our private Microsoft Excel courses is essentially up to you and depends on the number of learners you have (up to our ten per course limit), we encourage clients to keep class sizes small. This provides a more personable and effective learning experience and allows the trainer to give individual attention to every student.

What is the Teaching Method for Our Copilot for Excel Courses?

The teaching methodology for our Excel courses is Instructor-led training (ILT), meaning that our courses are engaging, immersive, hands-on and interactive. With this participatory learning method your staff will retain information better, whether they're studying Excel in-person or via live virtual classroom.

And, whilst we're happy to provide lectures, show-and-tells and drop-in surgeries, the ILT approach is by far the most reliable way to bring your Excel know-how to life in a small-class-size setting.

How Long are Our Copilot and Excel Power User Courses?

Usual teaching hours are 9.30AM to 4.30PM with a lunch hour and short breaks morning and afternoon. This timetable is fairly standard across the industry and gives six hours of hands-on Excel learning, which is an optimal day's training for comfortably absorbing and retaining information and completing practice exercises.

If you want a different start time for your course please let us know.

Courses are run week days, during normal business hours.
