FULL COURSE DESCRIPTION:
__________
It's time to show Excel who's boss. Whether you're starting from square one or aspiring to become an absolute Excel power user, you've come to the right place.
This course will give you a deep understanding of the advanced Excel formulas and functions that transform Excel from a basic spreadsheet program into a dynamic and powerful analytics tool. While most Excel courses focus on simply what each formula does, I teach through hands-on, contextual examples designed to showcase why these formulas are awesome and how they can be applied in a number of ways. I will not train you to regurgitate functions and formula syntax; I will teach you how to THINK like Excel.
__________
By the end of the course you'll be writing robust, elegant formulas and functions from scratch, allowing you to:
  • Easily build dynamic tools & Excel dashboards to filter, display and analyze your data
  • Go rogue and design your own formula-based Excel formatting rules
  • Join datasets from multiple sources with Excel's LOOKUP, INDEX & MATCH functions
  • Pull real-time data from APIs directly into Excel (weather, stock quotes, directions, etc.)
  • Manipulate dates, times, text, and arrays
  • Automate tedious and time-consuming tasks using cell formulas and functions in Excel (no VBA required!)
__________
We'll dive into a broad range of Excel formulas & functions, including:
  • Lookup/Reference functions
  • Statistical functions
  • Formula-based formatting
  • Date & Time functions
  • Logical operators
  • Array formulas
  • Text functions
  • INDIRECT & HYPERLINK
  • Web scraping with WEBSERVICE & FILTERXML
__________
What gives you the right to teach this class? Can't I just Google this stuff?
I have a genuine passion for Excel that most people reserve for things like kittens, ice cream, and significant others. The only thing I love more than learning Excel is teaching it, and as the founder of Excel Maven and Maven Analytics I've been lucky enough to teach Excel to 200,000+ students across 180+ countries. My teaching style is conversational, authentic and to the point, and I will always communicate complex concepts in a framework that is clear and easy to comprehend.
As a full-time analytics consultant and Excel instructor, I cut my teeth using Excel to solve real-world business problems and develop award-winning analytics & data visualization tools for Fortune 500 companies. If you care about creds, I'm a card-carrying MOS Certified Excel Expert and my work has been featured by Microsoft and the New York Times. Ok so I don't actually carry the card, but you get the idea.
If you're looking for the ONE course with all of the advanced Excel formulas and functions that you need to know to become an absolute Excel ninja, you've found it.
See you in there!
-Chris (Founder, Excel Maven & Maven Analytics)

A must have course if you want to expand the usefulness of Excel

By Daniel Davenport on 11/14/2020

This course breaks down the formulas step by step so that you understand how a formula is built, thereby providing you with ability to troubleshoot as well as input the formulas.
I learnt a lot from this course that I will definitely utilise in my day-to-day work.

By Anonymized User on 11/7/2020

Really great course - super engaging with loads of useful tips!

By Robert Dudziak on 11/7/2020

Overall, I expected it to be similar to other courses I tried but this one is pure GOLD and I learned a lot! Thank you!

By Ivellisse Belen on 11/7/2020

Yes, as it taught me to fully understand how Excel thinks which will help me understand how to correct formula errors.

By Elli Zarkadi on 11/7/2020

Good experience overall. Great teaching abilities, really comprehensive and detailed lectures. The examples were on point. Only the last chapter of the extra bonus functions did not bond well with the curriculum flow, especially for someone not familiar with the specific functions.
I would definitely recommend this course!

By Carlo Jacobs on 11/7/2020

I had some experience with ME but through this course, I learned a few things and it refreshed everything. The instructor has a great way of teaching and everything is very clear now! I would highly recommend to anybody that's looking for a good introduction and some advancement into Excel!

By Mohd Faraz Khan on 11/7/2020

It was a good course. But I think many more things can be included in this. The advanced excel course seems like a good baseline for an advance but with advanced case study the course can dive down more.

By John Kudalor on 11/7/2020

This course was really an eye-opener. I thought I knew much about excel formulas till I was introduced to these advanced formulas and the possibilities that exist.
Thank you.

By Tek Lip Hor on 11/7/2020

A good course to improve my excel ability. The reference notes are useful that I upload into my mobile phone so I can refer them when needed

By Alan Petrie on 11/1/2020

I am enjoying the course and have found it to be very helpful. I am learning some new tricks to be able to use Excel more efficiently and do things that I had not thought possible.

By Lizette Stols on 10/27/2020
