I offer Excel training in person and online, for individuals, for small groups, and for teams.
Most of my training is bespoke. That is, I plan the syllabus around your requirements and the skills and needs of the delegates.
I include the newest functions if they’re relevant to what you do. And I don’t waste your time with old material that you don’t need.
Why you should choose me for Excel training
First, I’m an experienced and enthusiastic trainer.
Before I became an accountant, I taught English as a foreign language. After I qualified I trained auditors in a range of technical subjects.
Secondly, I use Excel (and Power Query) in my finance director and consulting roles, so I know what’s useful. And I use realistic examples in my training courses.
Finally, I invest several weeks a year in my own Excel learning. This way I can ensure that my material is always up to date. I won’t teach you VLOOKUP when XLOOKUP exists, to give just one example.
Why you should invest in Excel training
Excel is one the world’s most used business tools, and yet most users get little or no training in it.
In the course of my professional life, I see so many examples of people spending unnecessary time manipulating spreadsheets because they’ve never been taught a better way.
On top of this, Excel is changing rapidly. There have been more developments in the last three years than there have been in the last 30.
With so many new tools available, even if you have had some training before, I can guarantee you will learn something new on a course with me.
There are various ways I can train you in Excel:
- I can provide bespoke Excel training for your team.
- I can train at your office in the UK or online.
- If you are based in Bristol I offer even more flexibility, such as half day training courses – see my Excel training in Bristol page for more details.
- While most of my training is bespoke, I also have some standalone Excel courses, for example a half day Introduction to Power Query.
- I also offer personalised one-to-one training.
In all cases I take the time beforehand to understand you and your requirements and tailor my courses to you.
Who I train
I’ve provided Excel training for finance teams and auditors; and for data analysts, project managers and administrators.
I’ve trained in multinational companies and in small local charities.
As part of planning the training, I will always establish your precise needs and interests, and make sure the topics and examples reflect this.
Beyond Excel
Power Query is a big passion of mine and I love showing people how much it can automate their work and save them time. There’s more information about this on my Power Query training page.
I also train in Googlesheets.
