With our in-house Microsoft Excel courses you'll become confident and proficient, whether starting from the basics (such as number crunching with basic math formulas, conditional formatting and sorting and filtering data), or you're ready to get stuck into data analysis and visualisations with PIVOT tables and charts, arrays, LOOKUPs and more.
With a per user Copilot licence plan, you can also learn about the mighty AI prompt capabilities of the =COPILOT function in Excel. For those with free Copilot, don't worry, we can still show you the formidable level of Excel support and help you get with Copilot Vision.
Our expert MS Excel trainers can focus on the subjects you need most, at the level you require and on the version you use from legacy desktop versions to the latest Excel 365 feature (but excluding browser-based versions of Excel). Many of our Excel courses can also be adapted for Google Sheets training (just "Sheets" to its friends).
And, whether you decide to learn on-site or Online, we bring the Excel skills you need to your doorstep.

Excel is one of the more powerful and useful traditional MS Office apps, but often one with which people struggle most. In fact, having staff who are confident and proficient using Excel doesn't only boost productivity and efficiency, it can even be good for morale and self-confidence, and contribute towards a positive employee experience.

If you'd prefer your team learns remotely rather than a trainer coming to you "in-house" in Darlington, our MS Excel 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.
What are the benefits of live virtual Excel learning? As we have 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 Excel training, then you can't get closer to your doorstep than you can with virtual learning.
Our virtual Microsoft Excel courses cater for classes of up to ten, and benefit from engaging interaction with the trainer just as if they were in the room with you, providing hands-on training via live video conferencing that's enriched by live chat, private chat and sharing screens and documents.
Courseware will be provided electronically.
If you have a group, or groups, of staff that need Microsoft Excel training, then running courses at your own workplace in Darlington (either face-to-face or as live virtual classroom) is a cost-effective option. Tell us about your learning needs and email us for a quote.

Our Microsoft Excel trainers know that we don't all have exactly the same learning needs and priorities. That's why on our closed courses your trainer speaks with you pre-course so that we can make our training more relevant to your team's key professional development needs where possible.
This won't usually offer much flexibility on a beginners course (since your learners will need core knowledge), but by the time you get to intermediate and advanced levels, there are wider possibilities. So, by concentrating upon your particular needs at these levels we can make our courses more relevant and cost-effective for you.
Plus, if learners have incomplete knowledge at any level, we offer blended Excel courses such as beginners-to-intermediate or intermediate-to-advanced (e.g. a Level 1/2 Excel class, or a Level 2/3 one).
This tailored approach puts your needs at the heart of the learning experience, giving you positive training outcomes and best value for money.
