Highlighting a lil of my knowledge for the subscribers here:- KEYSTROKE: CTRL+SHIFT+DOWN ARROW (Lets you select an entire row top to bottom). CTRL+ UP ARROW(Lets you jump to the top of a list). ALT+H+V+V(Allows you to paste special values). CTRL+PG DN(Lets you shift to another page in the workbook). =sum(A1:A4)....(Lets you add cells in a row). =average(A1:A4)....(Lets you take an average of the specified cell). Hope this lil helps;)

Excellent course for those involved with insurance. The content was easy to understand and had a good pace. I appreciate the cheat sheets provided with the lessons.

Yes it is a good experience for me specially i am using an excel but not similar to this. Chart and graph are new to me and I have learned a lot on this course.

By Cameron Bastian on 6/29/2022

Overall I feel like it was extremely helpful and well taught. The only thing I think would make it better is if there were a practice excel sheet, with a data set, available for download at the beginning; that way we could follow along and practice everything with her.

Very good base information if you plan on advancing in your excel skills. Also, very clear and simple on everything that was spoken. Thank you!

By Stefani Arapidis on 12/30/2019

I enjoyed this course and learned a lot. I even learned about the simple key strokes on how to maneuver within excel. I took notes and expect to look back at them until I get the hang of doing everything from memory.

The course could be improved with case studies for different types of insurance work. However, for the cost, it was a good overview and interview prep for my Business Analyst pursuits.
