Course Description

WHATS YOUR STORY?

Are you a business professional needingto up-skill?
Are you struggling to geta pay-rise and/or promotion?
Are you a recent graduate with an empty looking resume and no job experience?
Have you recently been laid off, fired or had a contract end?

If you answered 'yes' to any of the above then having ExpertMicrosoft Office Skills will get you closer to your goal of either landing your first job, a new job or progressing further in your current role. Here's why.

The job market has never been more volatile. Statistically, people are changing jobs more often now than they ever have before and that also means people are also losing jobs to newcomers who are far more skilled. So if youre not up-skilling, youre falling behind. Its scary I know. Ive experienced this myself.

A study released by Microsoft and the IDC showed that among 14.
6 million job postings, proficiency in Microsoft Office was ranked 2ndas the most desired skills by employers leading up to 2021. Microsoft Office proficiency ranked higher than Project Management skills, Sales Experience, Time Management, Analytical Skills, Interpersonal Skills and Work Ethics.

This is because we live in the digital age, meaning employers are looking for proficient data handlerswho process data faster, aremore data-organisedand cancommunicate effectively viadigital channels. Theseare skills everyone should have no matter the discipline because they are transferable skills. It makes you more adaptable and more valuable in the long-term.
This brings us back to Microsoft Office. It is the oldest, most well-known, most affordable and most trusted data management tool available and hence everyone uses it. So to be noticed and taken seriously in your job or job application, proficiency in these programs is compulsory.

ONLINE TRAINING AND THE MOST COMMON PROBLEMS

One of the most common problems with online learning content is that there is so much of it now and its difficult to know where to start or who to turn to. Many go the YouTube route and piece together videos from hundreds of tutorials from hundreds of tutors hoping to become an expert at the end of it all. This simply wont happen and will just waste your time.

Many take the route youre about to take, they decide to enrollin an online training course. Many charge hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars for their courses which is simply unaffordable foruniversity students, recent graduates, the unemployed or those looking for a career change. That is the reason why I have decided to keep this course as low as possible even though Im offering substantiallymore content than most ofmy competitors here on Udemy.

COURSE DELIVERY STYLE

I have been using Microsoft Office for over 20 years. I know the ins and outs and the simplest ways of doing things. My delivery philosophy is simple, if I cant get a 6 year old to follow along and understand, than Im not teaching correctly. I hate complicated language and so do you. Nobody likes trainers who focus on impressing rather than teaching and giving value to students. That is also why my lecture videos are as short as can be and divided into small sections for easy consumption. So you wont get unnecessary chit chat or nonsense. I also assume that all my students are near-sighted and as such, I use a special software tool that allows me to draw on the screen to show exactly what Im about to press as well as zoom in on small areas so you dont miss a thing.

WHAT YOULL LEARN IN THIS COURSE

The proper use and understanding of formula's in Microsoft Excel is essential in mastering the full program. It is a foundation skill that should not be ignored!
I'll teach you from the ground up how to construct and perform manual calculations, nested formula's, logic based functions, cell linkages, autosum functions and text/number concatenation.
Along with these functions I'll also cover additional techniques such as decimal place setting and formula expansion.
