How Long Does it Take to Learn Google Sheets?

To get from a beginners through to an advanced level usually takes three to four days of formal training. However, in order to become proficient you will need to put into practice what you learn, and there is still an awful lot more to learn in Google Sheets if you want to become an expert or a specialist.

What is the Best Google Sheets Course?

The best Google Sheets course is often the one that takes into account your particular learning needs rather than 'one size fits all' off-the-peg courses. That's why your dedicated trainer will speak to you before your course date to confirm which subjects are best-fitted to your group's learning and development objectives.

On-site Google Sheets Advanced Courses in the United Kingdom

Our closed courses for Google Sheets are delivered as private courses for your learners offering more flexibility than off-the-shelf public courses and topics taught can often be tailored to match your particular learning needs.

Sheets is one of the most powerful and useful of the Google Docs Editor suite of applications, but also often the one with which people can struggle the most, and that they find the most frustrating to work with. In fact, having team members and colleagues that are confident and proficient with Google Sheets can not only increase productivity and efficiency in the workplace, it can even be good for morale.

Our mobile trainers understand that helping their students to work more effectively is not just a business-oriented goal, it is also empowering for the individual students themselves. As such, our trainers are not just educators, they also champions of the software who endeavour to promote enthusiastic adoption of Google Sheets among those they teach. Before the start date they will discuss with you the goals and objectives of the training and those skill-sets that your team need the most whether they are starting as novice, intermediate or advanced users.
