Many of us know how to do lots of things in Excel, yet have never thought systematically about how to build skills in Excel. This intermediate level course, aimed at users in health, social care, and housing, will help users build spreadsheets that are safe, efficient, and reliable.
Note that this course is not suitable for beginners. The sessions assume familiarity with basic Excel usage, and are aimed at those who have previously worked with Excel spreadsheets. Users in NHSScotland who require introductory training should refer to the M365 Skills Hub.
The course materials are also best suited to the desktop version of M365 Excel. While most of the core content will work in other versions of Excel, some of content will work differently (or not at all) in older versions of the software.
The course runs as a series of five linked sessions. Sessions 1 and 2 are about exploring the foundations of Excel in greater depth to build confidence and fluency.
The remaining three sessions deal with key topics as a way of reinforcing the general learning from the first two sessions.
Course materials are available on TURAS. Please make sure you download, unzip, and review these materials before the start of the first session.
Places on this course can be booked via TURAS. This course is currently rather over-subscribed, so please consider joining the KIND Learning Network Teams channel for news of forthcoming dates and related training programmes.
