Total Training for Microsoft Excel 2007 Essentials and Advanced

One of the best courses I’ve done. How many of us use excel day in and out? I use it for my SMART/SWOT analysis, goal setting, workout progress, clocking my hours when I had to… all sorts. And now I feel like Super Excel Man! I’ve saved a couple of videos below which were just wow moments for me. Great teacher and Total Training as usual delivers another great course.

I couldn’t find the Essentials DVD Table of Contents but it’s pretty much the basics (which is not really basic if you’re starting in excel but very easy to learn and catch up on).
