Course Description
In the course you'll receive:
Practice dataset
Cheatsheet with 20+ functions
Short lectures explaining functions with examples
This course is designed to upskill your Google Sheets knowledge and is based on my experience leading growth teams and working day-to-day with Google Sheets. I've narrowed the course down to the top 20 most important functions that I use to import, clean, analyse and visualise data on a regular basis.
We will skip the basics of adding & subtracting and go right into the juicy stuff such as importing data with IMPORTXML and searching that data using QUERY. It will be no problem if these functions are completely new to you, as we'll cover all functions according to a practice dataset so that you can work alongside me and implement each function right away.
If you have any questions or requests, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Overall great course, but could be better if everything is explained with more examples.

Just what i was looking for, and every tiny little detail is explained so well, i am impressed. Thank you very much and respect for the tutor.

Course was a good match for what I was looking for. Learning by going through examples (including the occasional error :-)) is a useful approach. Some examples on data validations & arrays and advanced features such as macros, trends (e.g. cancellations), correlations (e.g. cohort retention rate) etc.

I love how Ruben Portz teaches. The videos are bite-sized and it is not as dry as I'd imagined. I love that there are Errors in the equation and that he solves them while teaching. This is a great way for beginners like me to learn. Highly recommend checking this out!

Easy access to everything I need to try the new skills. I like how the course doesn't have much fluff. He gets right to the point with tangible examples that are going to be used in the real world

The content is very helpful and interesting. Hope you will produce more courses like this one soon!

I really like that the video is not edited when the facilitator gets errors or makes mistakes, makes everything more real and gives a valuable insight. The names of the each unit sometimes don't match exactly what is shown.
