Gain advanced Excel skills


This three-week course will help you develop advanced Microsoft Excel skills to improve your workflow in your job role or increase productivity in your personal life.


You’ll further your knowledge of Excel as you delve into advanced functions, Excel tables, and data analysis before completing a series of activities to cement your knowledge.


By the end of the course, you’ll know how to unlock Microsoft Excel’s full potential to use for complex data and to create stunning visuals.


Understand Excel lookup functions


You’ll start by exploring advanced functions such as date and time, finance, lookup, and logical functions.


With this knowledge, you’ll be able to retrieve information, perform data analysis, and carry out complex calculations with ease.


Explore Excel tables


As you delve into the uses of Excel tables, you’ll learn advanced skills such as connecting to other workbooks and datasets outside of Excel to ensure your data only needs to update in one place.


Next, you’ll learn how to work with tables and table references. This will help you gain crucial skills in using pivot tables to help you query large amounts of data in a user-friendly way.


Learn Excel data analysis


You’ll develop essential data analyst skills as you explore the difference between What-If Analysis, Goal Seek, and Scenario Manager to help you find the information you need from data in Excel.


Finally, you’ll learn how to create stand-out visualisations using sparklines and data bars as well as advanced charts such as Surface, Radar, Bubble, and Stock Charts.


By the end of the course, you’ll have developed the skills to use the advanced functions in Excel for your personal and professional needs.


This course is designed for those interested in learning advanced Excel functions.


It will be most beneficial if you have some prior knowledge of basic Excel functions, which you can gain on the A Beginner’s Guide to Data Handling and Analysis in Excel course.
