About this class

In this one-day, instructor-led course, students will take a glimpse behind the curtain and learn hidden details about how excel works. What is contiguous and non-contiguous selection? What is a list range? What is the check symbol for? When should I use Tab? Enter? Shift? CTRL? What is Select Mode and Edit Mode? What is Autofill? Autofit? What about these terms: Function? Expression? Values? These questions and more will be answered as we learn the foundation of data storage, data calculations, and data formatting using the Excel program.

Features and functions in Office 365 and Office 2019 / 2016 are nearly identical. For this reason, users for all three versions (365, 2019 and 2016) attend the same class. The instructor will explain the few visual differences in the versions to you; just let the instructor know what version you are using.
