Our take

Based on the ratings of 875 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in April 2026. No course pays to be reviewed.

The course is really five shorter Excel courses stacked together: basics, formulas and functions, visualization, data analysis, and VBA programming. It runs 78.5 hours over 296 lectures and 54 sections, and about 26,000 students have enrolled. It starts from zero and ends at Power Query, Power Pivot and macros, so it suits someone who wants a single purchase to cover the whole Excel path instead of hunting for separate courses.

Reviewers mostly praise clear, well-paced explanations from Skillademia Academy, which is a team rather than one named teacher. Of 875 ratings, 496 are five stars and 284 are four. The complaints are specific. One student says a new instructor and a different format appear partway through. Another finds the narration flat. A 3-star review says there are no practical exercises or tests, and the syllabus shows no quizzes at all. An older review says the astronomical modelling lesson only worked until June 2023, after Microsoft's deal with Wolfram ended.

Because it is five courses in one, expect overlap. Basics and formulas come up more than once, and the data analysis section even opens with a review of the basics. The last update was April 2026, and the syllabus includes XLOOKUP, FILTER and dynamic arrays. It is a solid pick for beginners who learn by watching, as long as they build their own practice files alongside, since the course will not quiz them.

Best forBeginners who want one long course that runs from basic formulas all the way to Power Query and VBA.
Skip it ifYou want quizzes and graded exercises, or only need one area such as pivot tables or charts.

Pros

  • Reviewers call the explanations clear, well organized and easy to follow, even for people with no Excel exposure
  • Covers a huge range: pivot tables, Power Query, Power Pivot, dashboards, 2D and 3D maps and VBA
  • Capstone project runs about six hours, so there is some applied work near the end
  • Kept current: last updated April 2026, with dynamic arrays and Excel 365 functions in the syllabus

Cons

  • No quizzes, coding exercises or practice tests, and a reviewer says it lacks practice to solidify the learning
  • Stitched from several courses, so one reviewer reports a new instructor and a different format midway
  • Some overlap between the basics, formulas and data analysis sections, plus one reviewer finds the narration dull
The Excel course was very well organized and easy to follow. The instructor explained each topic clearly and provided practical examples that made the lessons engaging and easy to understand
Daniel, a student

Rated All Levels, but it really fits true beginners first, then intermediate users who skip ahead to analysis and VBA.

Throughout the course, you’ll work on practical examples and real-world projects, helping you apply what you learn immediately. By the end of the course, you won’t just know Excel, but how to use it to solve problems, automate processes, and make smarter, data-driven decisions.

Comprehensive guidance highlighting the essential need to know tools. Great learning platform for people who wants to learn excel but never has gotten any exposure before.

By Andrea Melissa Carcache Morán on 3/17/2026

La explicación es muy clara, enseña como madre alimentando a sus polluelos

By Jennifer Hauser on 1/21/2026

I like the course so far. However, when the screen is maximized the lesson is quite blurry. Because it's small, maximizing is preferred.

By Gail Schechter on 12/18/2025

I have some basic knowledge of Excel, so some of this early content is review for me BUT I am glad to be learning everything from the very beginning. I feel like I have sporadic knowledge of Excel and hope this course irons everything out and allows me to gain confidence with using Excel.

By Chidimma Maryann on 10/13/2024

It was a great lesson. From the first teacher down to the last one. Even though it became tougher in the end, it was worth it.
